As in my posts from March 22 and 23rd of this year, I am having more female part issues. I will be making an appointment with the doctor as soon as his office opens tomorrow.

Here's the run down.
Back when I was a teenager (Years ago...), my period used to be 40-42 days... (5 days of hell- really bad cramps and heavy flow. lots of pms. caffeine was very bad to ingest before each cycle began because it made the cramps worse.)
Then I went on the pill (BCP) for a few years, and my flow was a little lighter, slightly less cramps, but for the most part it was a bad idea. I think that it was my ingestion of hormone pills that triggered the anxiety, and the pills I took for that triggered the depression.
When I stopped taking the BCP, my anxiety almost completely went away. Changing meds also helped.
Now, I am still on anti-depressants for anxiety, and have issues with depression that I am sure causes lots of stress for those around me (say it with me, people: mood swings). I also take daily antihistamines, so that I can actually live. (I am gradually getting more and more allergic to everything).
Now, I am dealing with having my period every, oh, 60 ish days. (Don't even think of saying that I shouldn't be complaining). Today is 55 days.
I have been informed that it sounds like I might have ovarian cysts (from someone I know)... but who knows?
Gonna go help make invitations for a grande pooh-bah celebration a la August long weekend.

SO??? Fill us in dear.
Blaine,
I know what you are going through. All during my twenties and half my thirties I was the same way. Super long cycles. It's horrible because you PMS, bloat and feel damn shitty for twice, even three times longer than should be humanly possible. I went to the doctor many times and there was nothing wrong with me. For the last few years it's become more normal. I went through this for 15 years. Hopefully yours is just a short-term thing. Keep us updated.
Love,
Auntie Kelly
Oh. My. God. 15 years! What the hell?!?!
I hope it is something explainable.
Haven't been to the doc yet. Going tomorrow.
