Hi guys,
Quick update
It's been 5 months since my last period. The last one sent me to the hospital with horrendous bleeding - never experienced anything quite so dramatic. I haven't had my hysteroscopy yet which is what the gynae recommended. I keep meaning to make an appointment but I'm still trying to get myself settled after moving again. Everytime I think about making an appointment something else grabs my attention, and time just flies by so fast, so will be making that appointment soon.
The last 4 days I've had a migraine -- first one in months - not sure if it's a sign of another period on its way but I'm having some anxiety as well. I wanted to ask if anyone has really horrible anxiety just at the point when the migraine is getting better - I'm having slight pain now but I feel head pressure which is what usually occurs when the migraine is leaving. Anyone have anxiety with a migraine?
Hope you're all doing okay.....

Hello again!
Went to my GP appointment - She said there is no need for a hysteroscopy since I haven't bled for nearly 6 months and she feels that it's not necessary. She is a very good GP so I do trust her judgement, Had breasts examined while I was there - couldn't detect any lumps so I'm glad I had that done.
Having had a break from the headache it is back again - just low grade with a weird pressure mostly at the back. I am anxious, tired, and I have intolerance to heat at the moment. Not sure if it's a hormonal dip but it will be 6 months on the 3rd May since my last period.
My husband is away on business at the moment, he's in Ireland so I'm feeling a a bit vulnerable here on my own. The anxiety is back - I take 0.5mg Lorazepam a day for the anxiety, not sure what else I can do for it.
I drink plenty of fluids, so I'm not dehydrated. Maybe it's the way I'm sleeping - I've noticed that if my head is tilted too much on the pillow I get a headache the next day but it shouldn't last for days should it?
It's nice to come here and vent a little -- I've become a little scaredy cat but these symptoms really do get to me at times. I also have a twitch in my eye today - what a blinkin' mess :-\
