The Joys...

Oh the joys of womanhood...for the first time in four years I got my period on Monday. It has been two months to the day since I stopped the birth control pill, and two months since I have had any autonomic symptoms.  Thankfully those symptoms have not returned.  What did start returning last week (which I did not understand at the time) were fevers, nightmares, diahrrea, and the rash on my chest.  Monday, I started with the spotting, and Tuesday it turned into mild cramping and staining...today is severe fatigue, nausea, lightheaded, and of course, cramps.  I definitely remember why I stayed on the pill since I was 14 years old!!    I just HOPE HOPE HOPE it doesn't last too long!!!
