OUCHY!!

So today is day 6 and I have stopped the Provera. Hallelujah and Praise Jesus! I have been experiencing some awesome side effects. Most notably my breasts HURT! Not just tender but effin' hurt! It hurts to put a bra on. It hurts to not wear a bra. It hurts if I hug Sim. It hurts if anything touches or brushes them. Then because we are in autumn, if I get cold I just want to cry. Today is much better but the pain is still somewhat there.

My next side effect is tiredness. I don't mean have an extra coffee to perk up tired. I mean falling asleep at 5:30 tired! So for the past couple of nights I have been in bed at 8:30 and sleeping in until about 6:30 in the morning. Apparently, I am not the only tired person because not even the alarm going off this morning phased the cat who was literally sleeping on my head. If it was for writing this, I would probably be sleeping now.

The worst of it is the headaches. They might not be related to the medication because I still have them after stopping. Holy hell! I feel like I am on the verge of a migraine every afternoon and my eyebrows hurt. I don't really want to keep taking Advil but it's the only thing helping.

Mix all the side effects together, with the eating everything in sight or feeling the urge to spew, and you think I was pregnant! At least the delusional part of my tiny mind is wondering "could I be?". Of course the answer is NO you frigging idiot! Blood tests don't lie do they? No ovulation=no egg=no baby.

So that is the update. Now I am going to get in my jammies and crawl under the covers.
