It's been a strange weekend - yesterday was great - I went shopping with Mother - bought some clothes - major bargains - and I can only afford cheap stuff at the moment, so pleased to get a few goodies - especially as the stuff I bought at the end of May is already too big :D
Oh and Ha - my calves have always been too big for knee high boots, and I've realised this morning that if I continue as I am, I am going to be able to have sexi boots this winter! How sad am I?!

Really busy day yesterday then, shopping with Mum, helped Dad put up and tune in his new tv, saw my friend in the evening, then came home and watched Zack and Miri make a porno (Which I really liked - as opposed to Step Brothers which I saw in teh week and was apallingly bad).

Today I haven't even changed out of my pjs. Every time I tried to do anything I came over week and exhausted. Not breathless as such, just feeling wacked out. I guess teh anaemia is coming back - I had a blood test Thursday again though, So I will get the results soon - and it's my hospital apt Wed, so an end may be in sight!

And on that point - any flisters out there who have had hysterectomy wanna answer a few questions - maybe of a TMI nature? Although teh current pressing issue is - do you still get PMT? I have had such rage this week, and it really isn't like me, bit moody yeah, but not full on wantin to scream. (Not helped by my neighbours who chose to play their music very loudly today. In two seperate rooms, two seperate sets of music. Argh!)

I watched Robin Hood I don't actually like Robin and stopped watching about 4 weeks ago, but I saw the finale and did have a little cry - not for Robin, but for Much. Poor soul looked so lost and vulnerable. And I'm not in teh fandom, but can't help wondering if there are shippers of Guy and Isabella(name?) because they didn't play that like brother and sister. Gisbourne looked good in his brooding black leather as always. Is there going to be a next series? Without the main characters? I assume we're meant to think the sheriff perished too? So in two series we lost Marion, Robin, Will and Alan, Guy and the Sheriff? Hmm

I can smell smoke.

I am listening to Red by Daniel Merriweather and I'm in the Mood for love by Jools Holland and Jamiroquai on rotating repeat. (Quietly!)

I kept my ovaries and had regular PMT until I hit menopause. The problem was I dind't know when to expect it anymore, and would find myself in rages, and not understand why, then think . . . . Ooooh yeah, PMS. You'll probably keep your ovaries, too, right? If all you have is fibroids, there's no reason for them to take ovaries. It's much better for you if they leave them.

You will be so happy. My post surgical pain was nothing compared to my fibroid pain.

Feel free to ask me any questions any time.

Yeah, if I have to have it done I assume they will leave my ovaries ( I will of course be asking them and ensuring I know what's what!) - and I thought that would mean I'd still have the joy of PMT. Great! Although my cycle also appears to drive my erm, "other drives", so can I assume they will remain unaffected also?

Welly, my um . . . other drives . . . got very much stronger because i was no longer in agony 18 days a month. You'll still feel a stronger drive when you're ovulating, and you might still feel the ovulation (I could always feel it), and your breasts will still get tender if they did before, but you won't be so exhausted all the time, and the freedom from pain is just amazing. It took me a long time to get used to not waiting for it, to not making sure I had plenty of tampons and pads (think of the savings every month).

Thnks - I'm trying to focus of the positives :)
-and it may all still be premature - but just wanted to get some things straight in my head. I think I need to do some biology research! (where do the eggs go? Where do teh tubes go? do they.. argh, no I shall go internet for some info!!

(And if it happens I think I shall buy nice things each month instead of tampons and pads!)

The egges just get absorbed by the body. You won't notice. The tubes get removed with the uterus.

Yah, think positive!
