I hate to be the one to complain.....

...but if I were, this is the place to do so.
I'm complaining. This is my complaint blog about myself. Even after the radical hysterectomy, I still have pain and some bleeding. I told all of my doctors and my gyno said it was vaginal atrophy. Really, it's a thing and she said it is happening to me. Working out has been curtailed, core work began to hurt. I wonder if it is because of scar tissue. I had to actually lay down one day because of it. I told my doctors, nothing.
 Since my hysterectomy, I have had no sex drive. Fine with me, no one to drive with anyhoo. Additionally, the menopause symptoms have dramatically increased since my last writing in 2013.
I have hot flashes and insomnia. Sage tea has helped tremendously, so thank you to the kind woman who suggested it while on line at the Ali Baba store on 45th Ave.
That store is a great source for herbs and spices.
I've written two epic essays, 2,000 words plus and a prologue to Gas Station Divas (4,000 words).
I will post them somewhere on this blog.

Some of the women said they have to empty it several times a day but when you compare that to using 32 tampons in two hours it is a better deal. (Yes, one woman in the thread had that as an issue and I can identify.) Article links: No Hysterectomies for Heavy Periods MensesEdu I'm reading some of this information now and in developing countries young girls and women may not have an eco-friendly alternative to sanitary pads. They are using cloths that are laundered--probably by hand--and then reused. Where would all of those women put used sanitary products? In a land field? I dunno. I'll keep reading...but one woman commented on the Mooncup facebook page that the

The pain is bearable but...

...it is unpleasant. I've already had two ibuprofen today. The pain actually started yesterday but went away. It started in enough time to prevent me from attending a school board meeting and put me to sleep through most of it until an hour before the end. I listened to the remainder on the school district radio station. Blimey. Anyhoo, here is an older video of me bleaching my hair:
