I go to the gym at lunch.
I started going every Tuesday and Thursday just to walk for 40 minutes or so, and I LOVE it. There is never anyone there to stare at me since I'm in scrubs. Not to mention animal print scrubs so I look like a fat zebra on the treadmill. Bah. Well, today started out like any other Tuesday and I dragged myself into the gym because I really wasn't feeling it today. Super hot out. Hate hot weather. I know it's probably too much info, but I really had to pee! So I go into the bathroom and guess what...
I started my period!
I don't think I've ever been so excited to start my period in my life, but nevertheless, excited. The ironic part about this (and yes, there's an ironic part) is that I had just called my doctor's office to tell them I HADN'T started yet. I had taken my Provera like a good girl for ten days and typically, when taking it before I had started two days after completion. Well, when it hit the five day mark I was worried, so I called and said I hadn't started. Haha, day six. I should have waited just one more day. All that worry for no reason. Pfft. Keep in mind though this is the same medication I was taking every month to make my cycle start and it failed me for the last two months. I have no idea what was different this time around, but I'm happy it worked! Probably all of the other supplements and such.
So, communication with my doc's office:
I talked to the nurse after I left my super happy message about having a period today. She called me back about an hour later. The first thing she asked me was if I was "full flow" ? Uhm... really? No. No I'm not. So technically tomorrow would be considered day one. But let me get a little more TMI on you. I never cramp. The way I'm cramping I'll be full flow by the end of the night. Sorry. I know. Anyway... She set up my ultrasound for this Friday (June 22nd)... which I'm not sure why I need it, so I actually left another message for her to call me back. I hate that! I never have any questions when talking TO someone, but as soon as I hang up the phone I have five thousand. Ugh. She ALSO scheduled my hysterosonogram (dun dun dun) for next Thursday (June 27). I'm actually somewhat nervous about that one. It's probably going to be extremely uncomfortable and I'll be ALONE because my husband will be working. Can't wait to tell him that. Man, it's amazing how fast paced everything gets once you have a period. :) The nurse also joked around a little bit with me and said, "Well hopefully it's the last one you have for nine months!"
Me too, Miss Nurse. Me too.
Yeah, the hysterosonogram one is a pain. Literally.
