OH!! THE PAIN is REALLY breaking me down! I can't find ANYTHING that helps but a hot bath seems to soothe a little - I can't live in the bath forever - now can I??? Ruby 54 I have the exact pain every day almost nonstop. Sometimes I want to just die because I can't take it - That is a terrible way to live and feel. I have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis also and when I told my endocrinologist about the constant pain in my ovaries - he said " How you know where you're ovaries are? You don't know that!" He is from Africa or Zimbabwe(sp) I think. But anyway WHAT??? I know where the heck my ovaries are - -does he know where his testicles are???? I mean c'mon - give me a break!!! I can't get anyone to prescribe me anything for pain - my OB/GYN says "oh just take some Aleve" - YEAH RIGHT that'll do the trick, it doesn't even take off the edge! My husband says I should kick him where the sun don't shine and tell him "OH just take some Aleve!!!" But, really, he is a great doctor and if not for him recommending all the bloodwork he did I could have gone even longer than I already have not knowing about the Hashimoto's Disease. I just think that if you are TTC and can't get on the Pill then you are just OUT OF LUCK on the whole pain deal and just have to live with it. That MUST be the case, because I have researched pain management for PCOS and found NOTHING. I wish someone could offer some advice. Just hearing that others are experiencing the same thing is really helpful - believe it or not! I thought I was the only one for some reason. But it is everyday without fail, sometimes ALL DAY LONG NON STOP and other times it eases off after the morning passes and comes back in the evening. It hurts in my lower back, in my ovaries, my thighs even hurt - sometimes it is so bad it makes me super nauseated and I also have very sore joints and muscles from my Hashimoto's. I have had to miss work and have some very important upcoming changes within my company which will require me to travel and take some classes and I am terrified of messing up or missing out on something and losing my job - I am in so much pain and sooooo very stressed out!!! |
