Day 5 raging hormones

It's Monday. Never a good day but certinaly not when the rain drips out of the sky like stair rods. My dad always used to think my bad moods where down to not having enough sunshine, truth was that the endometriosis was messing/ still messes with my head. As part of my new nutritional treatment I had to fill in a form giving two symptoms as examples. I think I will then look back in a month and see how those symptoms are - whether or not they have got any better. I wrote down mood swings and pain. Afterwards I thought how odd why did I say mood swings first rather than pain? Surely the pain is the most obvious, most immediately damaging symptom? But in actual fact the pain is limited to say a week of every month whereas the mood swings could hit me whenever and wherever. Making a real dent on my work, boyfriend, family. The whole shebang. Eveyone feels sorry for you when you are doubled up with pain, but the same people just think you are losing it or a weirdo when you can't stop crying or overreact to situations.

Anyway that is one symptom that I have to say has already improved somewhat. In the days leading up to this month's 'event' I was OK. No snarling, no teeth, no blood (other people's), just normal me.

The pain on the other hand was the worst I have had for years. And it has continues. Yesterday would ahve been day four of this event and I had to take pain killers. Even today I have had some twangs. But perhaps that's because I drank loads of coffee yesterday and a cup today and I had half a pain au chocolat yesterday. My nutritionist believes there is a hormone in wheat that triggers pain in endo sufferers so I am supposed to be on a wheat free month. I have been good with only a couple of misdemeanors in three weeks but my treatment was supposed to be aided by vitamins and supplements which have not arrived. I need to be completely organised for the motivation to be total!
I do see though that there is an end and a possible solution. And it makes me smile.
