I will be around for a while @outlander
I have had a bad day - hence my not being on-line - but it's night time again and I feel better - this is so strange - but here we are
I have someone coming to vacuum my bedroom next week - that requires moving the bed and book cases and getting at the dust I can't attend to because I get asthma - so I am moving my books and I have to get rid of some of these - a good time to sort some of them out because not all of them are going to the Op_Shop
I believe you have that pain - my grand-daughter had endometriosis - you could certainly have that - and I have had it too - it causes bad periods - so that is something they need to do a small operation about - nothing to worry about - it's called a laparoscopy which means two very small holes and very easy to get over. I had them for cystic ovaries
Here's the thing - I know you never talk about taking pain medication and that's a good thing because people complaining about pain sometimes get picked on a red-flag which is most unfair - so never talk about that - I am sure you won't -
But insist that the pain is real - now you have had ovarian cysts and your gall bladder checked - I guess they have ruled out appendicitis and what's left - seeing as you have done your exams?
Endometriosis or something else that's a bit different perhaps - but yes - insist
Or - wait and see - for now I am bustling around tidying my books in another room - but I will be back and forth to the computer

Hi @outlander
Yes - I would like to know an interesting but sad fact in your life - I am gradually building up a picture of you in my mind - don't worry - you would probably like it
I am only moving books - I have so many books - and I am not doing it all tonight - I have to get this done and when I am putting the books back I will put a lot into plastic bags and get someone to drop them at the Op-Shop for me - I could use the space
Something is causing that pain - who knows what - you might have pulled your stomach muscles with the dry-reaching you had - or just from stress - and tummy pain is worse than back pain at times - but I do believe in your pain - and one thing I think is that you had a lot of physical pain and you were doing a lot of physical work -
And don't forget the endometriosis - that is a very painful disorder - but I think your period would be over by now - still ask - and oh boy
Just go and see your therapist - ask him/her then - and what to do next - because regardless of what has been said to you pain has a cause and you might need yet another opinion - so start with your therapist
What a day - for both of us - I really got cold and then I got the back pain and I didn't know where to put myself - I actually managed to fall asleep and the phone rang - I hate that - it happened yesterday too
I will be around for a while yet - tomorrow I am having brunch with my daughter and grand-daughter for Mothers Day - so I can't stay up too late - but I will be around for a while yet
