Post-mortem on this month’s cycle
I had withdrawls on Thursday and Friday. The stomach cramps and nausea hit me at the same exact time of day, and I couldn’t eat. Then I was fine by Saturday.
As good as the Dilaudid was to me while I was in pain, I really do NOT need to be having withdrawls from that shit for days after the pain has gone away. I await my GYN’s return phone call to discuss the next steps, and I also await a call back from my masseuse, who is looking for a Qigong practitioner for me so I don’t have to keep going down the opiate road.
As to my length of cycle - last month it was two days of bleeding. This month it was three. Three days is about what I’m used to for the past five or so years.
So now that the cycle has righted itself, so to speak, I just have to figure out how I’m going to manage the pain the next time around.
