Some break ups are harder than others. :)

***Note**** This post contains personal female discussion. You've been warned. I've finally reached my breaking point. At approximately 21 months of insane and out of control menstrual cycles, I've had it. I can't deal with it anymore. Today I made the call to the gynecologist in Hamilton that agreed to give me a Hysterectomy and made the appointment to sign the papers. So, on Oct 5 I will be signing on the dotted line to get this thing done, but I'll be keeping my ovaries so as to not induce surgical menopause. I don't like the idea of major surgery unless it is absolutely necessary, but at this point in the game, I'd venture to say it probably is. I still have my Dr pushing iron supplementation at me due to my wavering anemia, and I know when it's low due to being extremely fatigued, so I sign the papers on Oct 5, but I don't know when I will have my surgery. I kind of want it after my MRI on Nov 7, so I'm not having any issues getting up and in the machine, but I also don't want to be "out of commission" for Christmas. Ahhh. Life. Kicks you in the ovaries every time.
