Hi. I have a feeling that some thing is very wrong with my body. The feeling just won't go away so I am seeing my gp on Wednesday.
The symptoms are
Fatigue- yes I have 4 kids but I am exhausted after doing the dishes
Breathless- I am getting breathless while having a conversation
Irregular period- I have always been able to predict my period to the hour every 28 days. I have never had an unexpected period until yesterday and it is heavier than I have seen in 10 years or more. I had baby in Jan 2018 and came off pill in Sept, no period until February 2019 then 6 week wait then 3 weeks out if the blue started yesterday.
My lower back hurts so much I can't even bend over sometimes to get baby out of the bath without crying out
My body is odd shaped. I am overweight (96 kilos) but have always had an hourglass kind of waist. Recently I am more square
I am not bloated as such but I have a constant firmness to my lower abdomen like the firmness you feel at4 months pregnant
My bowels are crazy....I have always had very regular and satisfying bowel habits. Not any more.
I have pain radiating from my right shoulder and down my arm
Acid reflux. Outside of pregnancy I have never had acid reflux in my life.
Every joint in my body hurts and I can't push the pram for very long at all ( tgis one has been going on for a couple of years)
These are all new symptoms over last 5 months(apart from the joint pain) and getting worse. I feel absolutely terrible.
I am seeing the gp on Wednesday and have made a list of all of this. (Just remembered....I also had a very tender spot in my lower abdomen but that seems to have moved )
I am obviously worried and have a terrible feeling. I will make sure to mention to gp that I want ovarian cancer to be investigated among anything else he comes up with. He will probably tell me to lose weight and see how I go.
