Olivia,
My bp is all over the place, I went to see my primary for back pain, which would come and go but it would also make the front of my stomach cramp up as well. My doctor told me to lay off all caffeine, I didn't stop with the caffeine, but when I went back 2 weeks later my bp was fine. (Of course that was during one of my good days). I can tell that my heart races and my bp is up most of the time these days, I also check it at the pharmacy where I go and get my prescrips from. He also mentioned I had blood during a urine test, I went and saw a urinologist (sp), he told me nothing was wrong.
I have been on quite a few different bcp since I was 12. The newest one I am on will start my flo, but it will not stop it without doubling it up. It is still as heavy as ever. I have to change almost every 1/2 an hour. The symptoms other than the heavy flow were not there before but the back and stomach cramping have come and gone since I was 19, but didn't think they coincided. I'm also on Metformin, and as Kalyn mentioned, it hurts to use the restroom (1&2) Right now I'm thanking God that I'm actually on Met.
My attitude I noticed has actually basically gone down the tubes. Most of the time I'm not even sure who I am. Especially with my dh. The poor man must be about out of his mind trying to just stay on my good side. Which I really don't think I have one. With the worry and the mood swings that are going on. I have no clue what I'm going to do.
The results to my ultrasound, they came back normal. Other than the cysts on my ovaries. None were overly big.
My primary is trying to locate a pcos specialist in St. Louis for me but has not had luck so far. |
