I seriously considered it for a while last night. Like, ER considered. I wasn't blacking out or anything like you have had the misfortune of doing, but I couldn't get in any position that didn't hurt, went through THREE super tampons in LESS THAN AN HOUR and was hemorrhaging like I haven't since...well, for a few months, anyway.
Couple that with the fact that I've been bleeding lightly for the last three weeks, and I was just not happy.
Hubby would love to drag me, but I balk so hard at it because I don't want to be stuck...and that's the first thing they'd do.
I don't know...I may eventually just drag myself in on my own. But I have to work up to it.
Kimberly, get your ass to the doctor immediately. I know you hate it, and I know they will probably take a little of your blood, but once that is over, they will help. Suffering is not a good thing - work up the courage and go - and you might wanna consider upping your iron intake also ;)
Once they "take a little" of my blood, I'll be untouchable - by anyone - for several days. They would need to drug me up just to be able to get the blood.
I'm not trying to be mean, and I know I don't totally understand your fears about needles and doctors - I don't like them, but I do what has to be done, I know it isn't that easy for you though. But - if someone else came to you with this problem, you would most likely tell them to see a doctor.
I know you can be brave and do it, you finally got to the dentist and survived ;) Some deep breaths, a LOT of positive thoughts and encouragement and you will manage it just fine, I know it :D
