to all the people that reached out to me during the time when I am freaked out... oh, okay, well, thanks Lissaboo...I guess you are the ony one. I wonder if this email will generate more looks than the one where I am asking for your support. Oh, my bad, I forgot... people mostly respond when they are getting something out of the encounter. Thanks for your supprt, Lissaboo, I appreciate you. For the rest of you....remember, you get out of anything ONLY what you give. Since none of us has a lot, I suggest you think of what you can emotionally give to keep up your spiritual savings account. PAY ATTENTION!!!!!!! Isn't that what we are learning here????

You should be ashamed of yourself for posting that.

First of all, you posted a day or so ago - many of us myself included, do NOt check this board daily.

Second, not all of us have or are familar with every issue/ problem!

Third, TONS - most of us actually - are constantly helping, or offering a good luck and asking how things went, and congratulating us when things go well. LONG after the issues are solved. I've spent hours posting to strangers trying to give advice and help, and I received tons of support throughout my entire experience ---NO one was getting a thing from replying to me but the satisfaction of knowing they helped. What have you done -- came here, cried for help, and yelled when everyone didn't have the ability to answer or to reply within a day! Just as you would reply / help with those topics you know about, but not others, we do to. You even said to someone you're replying b/c they did - wrong way to approach and really says a lot.

Please take your ridiculous and grossly inaccurate assumptions elsewhere.

kloedanser:

It's clear that you are very distressed by your situation. I thought your advice on the breathing techniques for panic was very thoughtful and helpful. I'm sorry you are feeling so helpless that these last two posts had to happen.

As for your bleeding problem...what you described has happened to me many times. It could be so many things, and most likely it's nothing serious. I've been in perimenopause for several years and at times have had abnormal bleeding, or rather, bleeding that wasn't expected. Once, when my periods seemed to last forever and came really close together, my doctor gave me Provera. It caused me to have a really big period, but after that I was regular for four years. Now, I'm a little irregular again, but I've been having hot flashes and I'm thinking maybe I'm close to menopause (I'm almost 46).

The first time something out of the ordinary happens can be very concerning. You are doing the right thing by going in for an exam. I'm sure you'll be fine. Please try not to worry. Let us know.
