Becca... You know what is messed up, I also get terrible pains during
ovulation. Pain is usually worse during ovulation, because all my
nerves act up as well. I get the swelling, or what feels like it (never
measured, but great idea!) sharp tenderness right on the left side as
well, runs down the lower stomach, into the vagina, the vagina will feel
like it is swollen and quite sore, and then the pain runs down my leg
into my knee.
I told all this to a gyn years ago, and all he said was it was
mittleschmerz and not to worry. As he said "Some women can feel it, and
some can't"
The whole IBS story the doc is laying down is BS .. Sorry to say, but I
do not have an issue with my bowels, and after me whining that to my doc
the last two times I have seen in, within 4 days of eachother, I think
he is beginning to think that I am not going to just be pushed aside
like all the other times. I am too tired of this, and I want to live a
normal happy life again.
Your appointment is on the 9th ?? Mine is too !! at 9:40 AM my time.
Hopefully we will both have answers that day. What time is urs
scheduled for??
