All of a sudden I’m crying and I don’t even really know why. I’m overwhelmed. I miss connecting with my people. They may be small in number but they’re mine.
Having BPD sucks all the good out of my life.

What kind of things can I get or ask for to help make her more comfortable?
Or just any tips?

I'm so tired. I sketched a bit. Having a rough one. I figured out how to hold a squishmallow against my abdomen to pull at the incisions less. I feel like I did a lot of damage already, but I could just as easily not be doing damage at all and just don't understand these sensations yet of removing the vile thing in the first place. I hope everything is fine. The right one looks most bruised, which they said was to be expected, but the sensation of gives orc isn't.... I don't know how to explain it. It isn't right.
That's the other rub. Fibromyalgia amplifies my pain, but I'm only on day.... what, for or five, and I'm down to two extra strength Tylenol a day? And it doesn't hurt anywhere near what I've experienced before. It's....all weird. Idk.
Well, based on the email I just received from my surgeon, I have definitely overdone it. I don't know how to prevent this from happening.

So I have an IUD for the past 2 years…
It’s been helpful. I’ve been in remission for a year now, and it’s amazingly unstressful… but it’s not all perfect… and things have been off.
I don’t have periods anymore, but I do get these monthly days where I have lots of mucusy stuff. I call it my ghost period, because cramps too. So like there ya go.
I have the iud because of endometrial neoplasia. My oncologist said the options were taking out the uterus or putting the iud in, and other such things.
So I was trying to explain it to ai but she didn’t get it. She did help me feel a little better though.

Went back into my grad school notes for a minute...
If you lose estrogen (e.g. from oophorectomy, or aromatase for cancer treatment): you see a rapid decrease in bone density
Increased muscle mass is why men have more bone mineral density than women. The tug and pull of muscle on bones. Men have higher muscle mass, so they have more tug and pull of muscle on bones.
Estrogen—yes, estrogen—is significantly important for bone density in men. Male with a genetic mutation of aromatase did not make estrogen. So he had no estrogen. When given estrogen, his BMD increased. Estrogen is critically important for male bone function and mineralization.
Hormone Replacement Therapy: Oh no! 25% increase in breast cancer due to HRT! But, this means per 10,000 women, that means 38 got strokes/CHD, only 30 got more cancer. It’s most likely high progestin that was the culprit. Women with NO history of CVD had NO increase in CVD on HRT.
Women with NO uterus had no risk. Read the publications. Those with no uterus are just on progestin.
You have to give estrogen and progestin simultaneously because progestin causes blood vessels to shrink and endometrial lining comes off in normal menstruation. You have to give progestin to prevent endometrial hyperplasia, so they don’t end up with endometrial cancer.

My mom just fucking speed ran cancer. She went to the doctor and mentioned spotting (she's 67), got tests, got diagnosed with stage 2 endometrial cancer, had a full hysterectomy, and it's gone. And they downgraded the tumor. This was over the course of a month. Don't get me wrong, this is amazing. But only my mom could pull this off and be completely unbothered the whole time.
But, here's my PSA, if you've hit menopause and notice spotting, go to the doctor. Spotting is not normal after menopause, it could be cancer or an infection. Either way, that's bad. And for those of you with boomer moms who were raised to feel shame around periods and to not talk about it, you need to have an uncomfortable conversation about this. Tell them that after menopause spotting or bleeding is cause for concern. A lot of women suffer in silence because they were taught that normal bodily functions are gross, embarrassing, and shameful.

Two years ago today, I had a hysterectomy to remove my stage 1 endometrial (uterine) cancer. The cancer has not returned and God willing, it will never return.

Uterine Cancer has been given an Awareness Month.. June.
Uterine Cancer is also known as Womb Cancer Or Endometrial Cancer.
My battle begin when I was just 24 years old and it still continues till this day.
This cancer is supposedly rare in young people but through this whole process I’ve learnt that so many young people are affected.
I had no clue what to look for regarding the signs or symptoms. This Cancer is rarely talked about, so how are we supposed to know when things go wrong.
Uterine Cancer is the most common gynecologic cancer.
Hearing that C word changes your life.
It’s time to put the spotlight on Uterine Cancer 🧡✨

Ο καρκίνος του ενδομητρίου είναι μια ασθένεια κατά την οποία σχηματίζονται κακοήθη (καρκινικά) κύτταρα στους ιστούς του ενδομητρίου.
Ο καρκίνος του ενδομητρίου μπορεί να αναπτυχθεί σε ασθενείς με καρκίνο του μαστού που έχουν λάβει θεραπεία με ταμοξιφαίνη. Ένας ασθενής που παίρνει αυτό το φάρμακο και έχει μη φυσιολογική κολπική αιμορραγία θα πρέπει να υποβληθεί σε εξέταση παρακολούθησης και βιοψία της επένδυσης του ενδομητρίου εάν χρειάζεται. 
Οι γυναίκες που λαμβάνουν οιστρογόνα (μια ορμόνη που μπορεί να επηρεάσει την ανάπτυξη ορισμένων μορφών καρκίνου) έχουν επίσης αυξημένο κίνδυνο καρκίνου του ενδομητρίου. Η λήψη οιστρογόνων σε συνδυασμό με προγεστερόνη (άλλη ορμόνη) δεν αυξάνει τον κίνδυνο μιας γυναίκας για καρκίνο του ενδομητρίου.

For 6 years we didn't clean the house much.
My dad's dementia took every waking moment we had. Every other moment was just resting. Waiting for the next thing.
Today I slept, woke up at 8-9pm. I cleaned the bathrooms, the kitchen, the stairs to the basement, changed the furnace filter.
I vacuumed the dining room, the hallway, the family room, I cleaned the bathroom shower carpets.
I cleaned the toilets and the toilet brushes.
I threw away a whole bunch of stuff. My mom likes to keep the sturdy fast food type containers like from Denny's for giving people a taste of our Hungarian food, but they piled up and we can't be making food to share for the foreseeable future. And we can always get more containers.
I swear I cried the whole time for hours.
I had to disinfect everything. When my mom gets chemo after this surgery she's not going to have an immune system.
I don't want a single dust particle to be near her.
I'm so tired and in physical pain, I'm in mental anguish too.
I still cannot fucking sleep.
I asked my mom to lay in my bed so I could hug her the way she is. Before all this stuff begins.
I miss going into my parents room when there was a bad dream as a child. OR Sometimes I just went there to be close to them.
I'm deeply hurt. We thought this was our year after our hard mourning of my dad. Not even the full year in that heart wrenching process my mom is in mortal danger with this fucking cancer.
If anyone has any cancer story or support or anything I wouldn't mind hearing it. Or just a friendly word or two.
I'm just devastated.
I will take any kindnesses you have.
My PTSD and anxieties are beyond any comprehension or scale.
This is such a vast and deep pain.
