Well, I just came back from my gyno appointment. Luckily, I just moved to a new town, so I got to switch doctors - and got some startling revelations at the same time.
I found out that most of my symptoms actually stem from endometriosis (I didn't even know that that one ran in my family), which is evidently rather common, and entirely treatable.
I also found out that I have gonorrhea, which is also evidently very treatable, one shot and it's gone.
The first was comforting to me, to know that a doctor can finally tell me what's wrong with me so I can go on with my life, with a plan to stop the pain. The second freaked the hell out of me. I'm recently (9months ago) separated from my husband of 6 years, who claimed faithfulness, and I've been in a relationship with a man for 6 months who I KNOW is faithful. But, I guess it doesn't matter where it came from, just matters that it's taken care of now, and my SO is scheduling an appointment to get the shot as well.
Meh, such is life.
