Scratch the missing cycle post...it showed up!

Boy oh boy can I tell you that I haven't had a cycle since November. She was a no show in December. Well she decided to pay me a visit a day or so ago. Just a side note, my tubes are tied so that makes my cycles heavier than what they're supposed to be. I am flowing heavily. Someone said that I'd get my cycle shortly after surgery. Low and behold, they were right! But, I didn't expect all of this. It's so uncomfortable and my back is in great pain. I rarely experience back pain with my cycles. I'm going through double the amount of pads I'd normally use! I am extremely tired and craving steak for the iron. I am utterly miserable. Has anyone else experienced this after surgery?

i got mine 5 days after surgery and it was a pretty heavy flow. i guess to make up for the months i missed? sigh. ever since then however, i've had one once a month...i think the 47 lbs. weight loss is really helping!
