thanks a lot everyone. It seems to be getting better now other than the occasional pain, which is still a little unsettling. I'm going for my appointment in about a week (AAAAHHHHH!!! first time) and hopefully it will all be fine. It was nice to know that some of the stuff i'm experiencing was normal like what SparklingDot said. And i'm glad that some of the problems will go away with the pill. I'll let you know how it goes
