Is it Throat Punch Thursday yet...because I'm feeling pretty snarky today.

in Trouble TTC
So this has been a rough month for me. My endo/PCOS has been pretty much killing me this month, and work has just sucked. That, along with the fact that I feel like I wasted this month because of that stupid injectables class (yeah...I'm still bitter)...I'm just not feeling very cheery. haha.
So last night on FB I see this post from this girl that I know. We're acquaintances, not really friends. We've done photos for each other (we're both photographers), and she has this post about taking herself to the ER. Now here's the deal: If you are so sick/injured that you need to go to the ER...why in the eff are you on FB?
Anywho...so she's going on and on about how much PAIN she is in, and how she is requesting morphine and they're fighting her on it, and just giving minute by minute updates on her status...ya know what was wrong with her? A cyst was bursting.
You have GOT to be kidding me. I know we all have different pain threshholds...but a cyst...really. I have burst probably...8 cysts in the last year. Ya know what I did while that was happening? I sat at work. What I did not do is update my facebook every 10 minutes with my complaints about my Dr not giving me IV morphine.
end rant. Thanks for listening to me be a total beotch for the day.

IVF #2 December 20, 2014 - 3dt of 3 embryos, BFN
We are done with treatment unsuccessfully.
As far as the cyst, the first one that I had that ruptured I passed out. The Dr said it's what your body does when it can't handle the pain anymore, I've never been in that much pain in my life. I woke up with my ex husband yelling at me to wake up while he tried to dress me to go to the ER, it was 1 am when it happened and I was in my gown. This was about 19 years ago so no fb, but even if there was I was in no condition to fb, I kept coming in and out of consciousness. I have had a few more rupture since then but the pain wasn't that bad. Then again my last one I did take a very low dose of Percocet because it was here and I saw no reason to be in pain.

Yes, she definitely falls under the 'Wacked Out Drama Queen Wednesday' category!
Just to clarify - to all of you ladies that had horrible cysts rupture...you deserved the morphine. And I in no way want to downplay your pain. I have had some pretty nasty ones myself. But like we've all said...I was most definitely not on FB at the time. So it was pretty obvious this girl is just an idiot attention seeking drama queen. (<<<you like that @iputketchuponketchup
)
Thanks for ranting with me ladies. Today is dumb. And I need to be off of work and go home....now.
