It’s been a month and two weeks of having answers, of having a diagnosis for what my body was and is dealing with. What a month it has been! Honestly, I was not expecting the new supplements to work very quickly and was very surprised when I started noticing changes after 5 days. Five daysContinue reading “Blessed and Grateful”

We are always learning and that process is never complete. We can learn about so many things – ourselves, others, the world around us, and so on. Those of us with chronic health issues are continuously learning and applying what we learned to our health journey. Today I was reminded to take baby steps. IContinue reading “Baby Steps”

Life is not always easy. Honestly, life is usually full of more downs than ups. Things are hard. They will try to steal your joy and knock you down. But Don’t Give Up or Give In! People might not understand what you’re dealing with or going through or why you are pursuing something. But don’tContinue reading “Don’t Give Up or Give In”

One of them being my hormone appointment with my new doctor on December 10th. Wow, what an appointment! I have never had a nurse or doctor listen so well and tell meContinue reading “Looking Back”

This week has been hard. Not difficult but just a struggle to get through. I have kinda had my period all week. I have had a headache almost every day. I have been extremely exhausted and just not myself. I have not wanted to eat much and I’m eating because I know I need to.Continue reading “Hard”

Something is wrong. Something is really wrong. Not as wrong as last year when I questioned if I was having a heart attack because of gallstone pain but something is still wrong. It is not okay to be this exhausted. I should not be this exhausted on normal days or when I have my period.Continue reading “Not Right”

The past week has been a weird one. Strange health things; maybe unrelated to the big issue but also maybe not. But at the same time it’s been nice to have hope with new beginnings. Hope of new job things. Hope with things getting better for me health wise. Hope for friends who are strugglingContinue reading “Holding On To Hope”
