Cramp city

Hey Katie,

I also started the day after my surgery what a joy that was.  The cramps were brutal in the beginning and now being 3 months post op and just finished a period I hardly had any cramps.  So it does get better :)

Awful horrible long periods every time I lose weight - my endo says it has to do with hormones being released into the blood via the weight loss.  It sucks and I hate it - a lot.

I fill my keeper or diva cup easily every hour and Tmi but I can smell the iron it's crazy heavy and I've had it three times since surgery.  I also had cramps and was craving foods that I would not have even thought about.  And dragging my but like crazy before during and after. Holy cat fish I would think by my age I would be a pro at it by now yet listen to me whine lol 

Reading all of these posts, makes me grateful for my hysterectomy!

Lucky you! I would love to yank all the plumbing out....I won't be needing it anymore as this baby making factory is closed!  I am also worried about my iron levels right now.  I was also low before surgery and I think that, combined with 3 weeks or opti and now 2 weeks of liquids plus this crazy heavy period....my iron is probably low.  I feel weak and lightheaded just walking up the stairs. It's brutal.  I don;t go back to TWH until Dec. 9th so I may have to get my GP to run some bloodwork on me. This stinks!
