Irregular Bleeding and Going Crazy

[AngieEMT]

OK - I think maybe I am just losing my mind. I had a D&C on 12/1/06. I had it because I was having terrible irregular bleeding all the time. It was better, but not normal for a couple months afterward. the doctor said that everything looked fine from the D&C. After that I have been bleeding about 80-90% of the time never stopping for more than 2-3 days at most. It was varying from spotting to heavy bleeding with giant clots. Now is stopped about 9 days ago. I have been feeling so tired all the time and have been getting nauseous, but when I eat a little bit the nausuea passes. I am sure I am just syking myself out. I should be counting my blessings that I am not bleeding, but instead I am obsessing and thinking "maybe I am pregnant". I know it is crazy. We have been trying for YEARS and it has never happened. I also realize that it is highly unlikely that I could be pregnant. I am so obsessed with it that I ended up fighting with my husband the first 2 days of our beach vacation last week, because I had myself so stressed out. I called my doctor about the bleeding adn told them the nurse that I could not take it anymore and something had to be done. She called me back and said they were going to call in a prescription for birth control pills for me, but I can not take them because I also hace pseudotumor cerebrai and it can trigger a recurrence. I told the nurse that and started crying I was so upset. She asked if I wanted her to give the doctor another message. The doctor ended up calling me back and saying that she looked at my chart and was going to refer me to a specialist. They were supposed to call me in a couple days with an appoitnment. THAT WAS 3-4 MONTHS AGO!!! I am so sick of dealing with this. I know I should call them back and see what the HECK they are waiting on, but I am just sick of dealing with it and dealing with incompetent people.

OK - I know I have ranted on forever, but if anyone has any input. I would appreciate it. Thanks. :)

Have your paps been regular?  I had a similar problem.  Ended up being endometriosis of the cervical canal.  This is rare but it happens.  Since I had it scraped out during a leap procedure I have had regular periods.  Ask your obgyn to check it out!

Yes, my paps have been regular. The doc said she "took a good look around" when she did the D&C. She said everything looked fine, but I will have to ask about that. I really need to call and light a fire under them about the specialist, but I am just tired of having to complain to get anything done.
