Guest guest Posted September 7, 2000 Report Share Posted September 7, 2000 "Well, some women would call your not having a monthly a blessing. My ex-fiancée had the opposite problem. Hers occasionally lasted for months on end, without stopping." Dear , I'd be fine with it if it did not make me so ill. Unfortunately my body gets confused and decides that I am actually in menopause. So I get hot flushes which make the arteries in my brain stem and brain swell with the heat and make my seizures and myoclonus, migraines, neuralgia, and all my neurosarcoidosis symptoms 100 times worse. Some times seriously dangerous. This goes on for months. Then my body remembers it is supposed to be menstruating and I get the moods, stomach cramps beyond belief as well as all the above at once. When it finally starts I just haemorrhage, usually with attacks of vertigo, migraine and always with intense pain. I also can have the problem of it not stopping once its started. I cannot take anything for it as all the hormones just aggravate the problem. So although it would be wonderful to not have a period, it is far from a blessing. I would much rather have a period every month then go through this. "As for me being "extra special".....isn't that just a nice way of saying "weird". LOL." Would you rather I said *gasp* normal? LOL ...... are you weird? (is someone who spends thousands on gold fish weird?) Nah you are special so live with it ... *grins*. Big Hugs back to ya! Be safe.
