Mmmmm Victory Soup

Congrats Quills!

Yes, your hair color IS lovely.

You will be happier and happier as the years go by because of your TL. I had mine waaaay back in '89, and I've never regretted it for a second. Today I live in a home I love, have a job I love and a husband I love. Life is goooood.

Enjoy! (You'll heal up in no time)

Congrats, Quills!!! I am so happy for you. Sounds like it all went well and soon you will be enjoying sex with reckless abandonment, and another plus - no more periods!!!

Oh no I still have periods lol. Those don't go away with a tubal. He did do a d&c while he was in there to see if there is a cause for my period problems though so I'll find out all about that when I go in on the 2nd.

Every day will be a little better! Don't worry about it too much. It sounds like you have an awesome hubby who will make sure you are as comfortable as possible. Give it a week, you will want to be up and about before you even know it!

I actually cleaned the kitchen yesterday (despite the hubby's protests) and was totally fine! He still puts me in bed though I think that's just because he likes doing it lol.

thank you.

I'm already feeling the stress fall away. I usually have the monthly stress building by now and it hasn't hit! It feels so good. It got worse every month and it was to a point that my housework suffered somedays (I would get so stressed I would constantly forget what I was doing or just end up crying on the floor or curling up on the bed with a nice solid panic attack) but now I feel like I have so much more energy even! My therapist is going to be so pleased! I honestly feel like that's why I am healing nice and fast; loss of a huge stresser. This TL has greatly upped my quality of life

And alas, you will still have periods. I suffered through mine (they were dreadful) with the help of opiates for many years. Then it got to be too much to handle and I had an endometrial ablation (lining of uterus removed) about six years ago.

No more periods REALLY rocks! Wait a few years and go get one; say your periods are heavy to the point of hemorraghing; that ought to do the trick!

Eh my BC pills make my periods fine. I have Menorrhagia and Dysmenorrhea but the BC pills regulate the bleeding and irregular cycle schedule and even lessen the pain(I was on painkillers every month before I was put on BC pills at 14....I couldn't even walk when I was cramping). My period doesn't bother me as long as I stayon the pill (and I will be staying on it since it gives me so many benefits with NO ill side effects.) The doctor asked if he could do a D&C just to check that there aren't any fibroids or anything lol. And honestly I NEED my bc pills because they fix other problems in my body that I would have to take all sorts of pills to fix individually and almost all of those other pills make me ill.
