Hi!

Per Anita’s reminder I’ve returned to this thread! It’s been a while but of course I’m still facing the same issues I’ve mentioned as I have.. forever lol.

@Anita, you are so right. All the anxiety and stresses my body processes is more than likely a factor, if not the leading one in why my body doesn’t function properly. I am working to make peace with my body and mind and am in high hopes that one day I am functioning a lot better 🙂 Figuring out why I feel the way I feel is definitely hard though.

@nycartist I’m sorry to hear about the struggles you’ve also had relating to menstruation. Almost everything you mentioned I have had checked, I’ll have to double check if I have had all of those labs run for sure though. I have considered seeing someone more holistic but I’m not sure what exactly I should look for when seeking someone like that. An auto-immune disease has crossed my mind as well. Researching all my symptoms has been a blessing and a curse because now I’m more knowledgeable but I also have a huge list of things that MIGHT be wrong with me but I don’t know how to totally advocate for myself so it’s been a journey. I’m confident that I will get answers in time or that my body really will find it’s happy place. I have a lot of life left so I need it to get it together lol.

Thank you guys so much, sending my best
