Just kidding...
So, you may not care, you may not want to know, but I figured out why I have been so off this past week...
Birth Control.
My body can't handle this much hormones I've found out after being on it for less than a week. Worst part, I am on the lowest dose possible.
Welcome to my world:
- Weeping...usually not randomly...but I am extremely sensitive right now (typically I cry, oh twice a year maybe), I've cried off and on for the past two days
- Heat. I feel like it is 90 degrees or hotter, all of the time. It could be -20 outside, and I wouldn't notice.
- Fatigue. I cannot stay awake, I am massively tired.
- Space cadet. Paris Hilton has nothing on me.
- Dizzy. But that really isn't too new for me.
- Cravings. Not as intense as a preg lady but I do get cravings for sweet (juice) and salty (fries). Today I just had to have a burger and fries.
- Sick to my stomach. About 90% of the time though, my stomach feels topsy turby.
- Don't feel like doing shit. Even turning on the TV takes way too much effort sometimes.
I had to take a double dose of the pill the other day for a missed dose, I think that was what amplified my migraine by 100 billion times. (and they thought the pill might fix my migraines)
I am going to try the birth control patch starting tomorrow, it releases at a slower rate and the body absorbs it differently...we'll see if I can tolerate it.
And if this is what being pregnant for the 1st three months is like, I never want to be pregnant. This is pure hell.
I am going (back) to bed. Kathy's wedding is tomorrow (She's the DJ for SkipPopSratch).

Doctors played your dosage like a card trick
Scrambled down the hallways yelling yahtzee!
Yay! You took my Weakerthans suggestion!

don't give up on the birth control. sometimes it take quite a few tries to find one that doesn't make you think, "birth control works by making you so sick and crazy that it's impossible to have sex."
