My Story:

Seems like after I quit smoking and drinking my body has fell apart. I had to have a hystrorectomy in 2007 but I had always had trouble with my periods. They were never normal from day one I was a heavy bleeder and this would go on for 7 to 20 days. Ever dr I went to never did anything until dr white (he was a blessing in a white coat LOL) I saw him for three months before the first lining burning, it worked for a couple months and then like clock work it came back and didnt let up. He did another burning and to no advail. So he did the hystrorectomy. I have never felt better.

Now they say my thyroid has quit working and that is three times the size it should be. I gain weight even when I dont eat. I have gained about 40 lbs in the last year and half. I walk every day for an hour and walk my dogs every day seperate from my walking. Plus I walk a couple of miles at work every day. I dont eat junk food, I am not a snacker, I drink 4 to 6 glasses of water a day. I found out I only have one lung that my diaphram is elevated and my stomach a part my intestines are up in my chest cavity. I have had to have iv treatments of iron for sevre anemia. I take an antidepressant. I just feel like a am fighting a losing battle with my health anymore.
