Oh yay

[bladespark]

I'm sick again.

On top of the eternal bleeding, I now have some kind of cold or flu or something or other.

Either my two-week low-grade cough that I finally decided must be allergies was coronavirus after all, or I've caught something new. Either way my head feels like it's going to explode and I hate everything.

Sigh.

I did write a totally insane 7k words on Heart to Heart yesterday, but today I've written like... 50? Too wrung out even for writing just now.

please go see a doctor.

I'm *seeing* a doctor about the bleeding.

When you go to a doctor with a low-grade vital cold, they tell you to go home and rest. So SURE, I'll whip up a babysitter (and get her sick exposing her to me and my kid) drag myself out of the house, waste hours in a waiting room full of sick people, who will probably give me yet another strain of the flu, pay a copay I can't super afford, to have the doctor go "Yeah, you're sick, go rest, drink lots of fluids, call me back if you start having bronchitis symptoms." That's a fucking amazing use of the tiny amount of time, money, and energy I've got to spare.

sorry. I'm just worried about you. I had bronchitis twice last year.

I shouldn't be so bitchy about it. >.< I don't have a cough at all, (I should say, I don't *now* I did, and got over it just a couple of days ago.) I just have killer sinus pressure and the damn pseudoephedrine is not actually doing much for it, it's just making my nose run more, so I'm extra cranky.

Ugh. Sickness is terrible and should be restricted as to when it is allowed to affect us.

I had eternal bleeding for two years straight, and received some pretty terrible treatment. Eventually I had an ablation, which was touted as a much easier surgery with fewer complications.

It was okay for two years, but then my period returned with 9-10/10 pain for over a week straight every month. Ablation isn't recommended for people who aren't going to go through menopause soon, just in case you were considering it.
