Hi Maggie,

Have not talked to you in a while. Sorry for your stressful weekend. Weddings are ALWAYS stressful if you're involved in them. If I ever get married, I want it to be simple with just a few friends on a beach somewhere. I think all the stress and spending thousands on flowers and stuff is too much. lol

I too, am feeling like my period is already coming. It's supposed to be Friday, but I can feel the stirring in there and I already have a low-grade fever. The first opening that my doctor has for surgery is August 22nd, but I am trying to get my deductible lowered from $10,000 to $3000 before I schedule the surgery. And, I still have no one to stay with me yet. My boyfriend travels a lot for his job, so I'm kind of at the mercy of his schedule. I just hope all this works out soon. I keep saying to myself, I hope this is my last period ever! I'm seriously thinking about hysterectomy too, so I will never have to deal with another surgery.

I hope you feel lots better when the Lupron wears off and I'm glad you're going to ask to get your hormones tested! Please, insist on making him do it if he says no.

Lisa, on here mentioned that she was on a BC pill called Ortho Microner that is just progesterone and no estrogen. (It's synthetic.) She said it has cut down on her pain and has had no bleeding in 4 months! I'm maybe going to check on that before I decide hysterectomy. If I could just get my bleeding to be less, that would be heaven....see I'm rambling! We all have a million thoughts going through our heads at once with this thing, lol. Well, take care for now & talk to you soon.
