tmi know.

You should skip this post.

I'm really only writing this down because I want to keep an accurate log of my symptoms and random health hiccups. It's scary not having health insurance here. I knew it would be.

Sunday- started feeling nauseous, fatigued, with painful stomach cramps. Fever of 100, chills and sweats throughout the night.
Monday and Tues- painful abdomen cramps, trouble digesting, aches and fatigue, dry heaving, frequent diarrhea that looks like bile. Bladder discomfort, as if I'm getting a uti. Monday night- I notice vaginal bleeding. fever goes down.
Weds- no shit, I think I have my period for the first time in three years. Not just spotting, but painful, thick bleeding. All other symptoms lingering but much better. Sharp flares of pain in my ovaries.

I have no clue what's going on here. It felt much like the stomach flu, but cleared up fast and resulted in menstruation (?). Did I eat a bad empanada or something? I get painful abdomen cramps and nausea frequently, supposedly from radiation scar tissue, but it's usually linked to hard-to-digest foods and goes away after a few hours.

I'm kinda thinking I should see an obgyn just in case. hm. Find a free service here, or wait til August when I fly back for my scans?

what is my body trying to tell me?
