09/14/2004: "Hormones, God help me..."

Bah, im about to get a little female personal here, youve been warned.


So, I have epilepsy, that is a given. But, I also have some weird female related thing going on. Now, the only thing that helps my weird female thing is birth control pills. Because of the epilepsy however, I must take a high dose of these hormones. That leaves very bad side effects, namely depression. This eskimo does not like depression, crying to her boyfriend over God knows what, and feeling like the worlds falling down around her. So she stops the pills.

Everything goes back to normal, and the weird female thing comes back, with vengence. Weird female thing involved pain so bad, the eskimo has to bend in all funny directions, lay down, not move, massage side of stomach, and do practically anything else to help the pain. It hurts, no joke. Doctors have a small idea what it is, but it cant be proven without surgery, which isnt an option for this eskimo.

Doctors want eskimo on birth control again. Eskimos mother and eskimo herself, dont like the high hormone pill. So doctors suggest some scary other hormone things. One involves sticking devices in eskimos arm, which scares the hell out of her, and another involved something far worse, which eskimo doesnt even consider. Eskimo mother likes the first idea, but is oblivious to the fact eskimo is scared out of her wits of this idea. Eskimo is not taking birth control to not have baby eskimos, she takes it for weird female thing.

Bottom line: eskimo really hates hormones right now.

In other news, doctor says im in good shape besides inner ear problem which is making me lose balence. Wonderful. Thats it, continue on your day.
