Good-bye cold weather. Hello cankles!

Also. I suspect my heavy period may be making me anemic. I also suspect that I may be a hypochondriac.

I've been paying attention this time. I usually don't gasp for breath when climbing up my stairs. I usually don't nap in the middle of the day (since on my thyroid medicine). Dizziness abounds.

I really wish that Aunt Flow would leave now.

It's been eight days.

As soon as I am done with this cycle, I am going to call the Health Department and make an appointment to get put on birth control. I can't keep doing this.

I'm going to cut the graphic bits. It would squick me out if I had to read it. Well, not really. I'm used to it but I don't want to gross anyone out intentionally.

( And the gross stuff goes here... )

So, yeah. I can't keep doing this. I have to make an appointment ASAP. And that terrifies me. I've never, ever had a pap smear. I don't know how to prepare for one. And I'm scared of what they may find.

All of the medical resources on the internet tend to make me a bit of a hypochondriac. It could be cancer. It's rare but it could be. I also could be anemic because clotting like this is not normal. Of course all of those symptoms could be attributed to other things like having a throid problem, hypertension, etc.

I just feel awful.
