First off, this is a complete AW post. I am feeling miserable and needed to vent to someone.
Last Friday through Sunday I was having bad pain that I thought was my endometriosis. Monday I went to the ER and found out it was appendicitis and had emergency surgery. I have been in so much pain, and nothing seems to help with it.
Now not only do I have the pain of surgery, but I got AF today. So I have cramps on top of it all. (this is after a wonderful month that I thought we had hit our FW perfectly, so I'm disappointed)
What is the worst time you have gotten AF?
(thanks for letting me whine a little, you ladies are wonderful.)
Re: AW: I'm absolutely miserable
OMG you poor thing. I hope you are feeling better soon. That must have been scary. For me, I guess the worst timing for AF was the first day of our honeymoon.
I'm sorry to hear this

The worst time I had AF was my w/d bleed after stopping BCP. I caught an intestinal flu bug that was going around at the same time so I had that w/ a 102 degree fever, and AF on top of it all. MH suggested that I was having w/d symptoms from stopping BCP! I just gave him the side-eye and locked myself in the bathroom.

I'm sorry to hear you had appendicitis but I'm glad you caught it before your appendix burst. I know 2 different guys who tried to tough out the pain they were feeling and both of them almost ended up dying because their appendix had burst. It was really scary! Thank goodness you didn't just chalk up the pain you were feeling to endometriosis. I hope you have a quick recovery.
Glad you got rid of your appendix. That guy is no friend of mine. Shall I have a conversation with your ute? I can punch her if you'd like.
Hope you feel better soon.
Sorry to hear that.
Hope you feel better soon!
AF always shows up on every vacation I ever take, seriously.
Every Month I get it Upsets me anymore ...... There really is no good time for AF to come. 10 Years ago I had to have Major Surgery due to Appendicitis myself and I recall AF coming while I was in the hospital - What's up with that~ Hope you feel better soon! Rest up!

Aww, I'm sorry to hear that, I hope you recovery quickly.
My worst AF happened when I was up at the family cottage for summer vacation when I was 17. I ended up staying in bed almost the entire week and missed out on the fun.

That sucks. FX for a speedy recovery!
The most awkwardly-timed period I ever got was actually my first period. I was twelve, and I had broken my arm really badly a few weeks prior (like hospital transfer/inpatient surgery bad). I had to wear this weird sling thing that kept my arm strapped to my stomach, so I only had the use of one hand.
It was awkward.
LOL!
Best.poster.ever.
Please punch away Olivia!
