Woke up at 7 o’clock with my alarm. Got out of bed 7:25. Had a hard formed BM that took a bit of effort. Still feel a bit like maybe I have to go more. Took oregano pills but did not take tincture. Will see if that makes a difference today. Also weighed myself this morning I am back to 170 pounds. Usually I am 180 to 185 and I have been down to about 163 so I guess this is an improvement. Left to walk to work at 7:45. I can still feel the tightness in my right lower quadrant. But it’s not like it was yesterday or at least not yet. Still when I walk my ovaries hurt or at least I think it’s my ovaries to the point that it kind of goes down into my Groin and thighs And makes me feel like my hips are stiff and I’m not walking with my usual gait.
Drank ginger tea and hot water throughout the morning. Walked to Shoppers at 10:00 (about a block round trip). Took one Aleve/naproxen at 10:20. Had a formed BM around 10:30. Ate a digestive cookie around 11:30. Face is flushed. Ate noon walked to toy store for holiday toy drive then got a chicken spinach salad (contains feta cheese) with balsamic dressing.
Ate a mandarin orange. Did not go last coffee because I wasn’t feeling up to the walk and work was a bit busy.
Continued drinking ginger tea throughout the afternoon.
At 4:20 I had another formed BM but I noticed it looks like there were several white cotton balls in my stool. Taking another look, I could also see a dried cranberry so I am assuming the cotton balls are actually the chunks of feta cheese from my salad lunch.
Walked home at 4:30. Slower than normal. I think walking at my old normal somewhat fast pace really exacerbates my pain levels. So I walked slowly home.
I got home by 5:00. Ate a slice of toast with cheese whiz and a small slice of apple. Drank the tincture and took the oregano tabs. Sat on couch for 45mins reading with a heating pad on abdomen.
Drove daughter to concert at 6:00 and then went to a pac meeting at 6:30. Drinking was ok. No better or worse than sitting in my chair at work. Sitting in the pac meeting however was often uncomfortable. Mostly in my right groin sort of like the muscle or tendon that engages if you are sitting and try to raise your leg is very very stiff and hurts whenever I switch sitting positions.
I left at 8:00, picked up daughter at 8:20 and drove home. Tried a bite of veggie samosa but I didn’t like it.
At 9:00 I sat down on the bench at the computer to type out the meeting minutes.
Saw a post on the Facebook endometriosis group about showing where you have pain. I’m glad mine is not the most expansive or the furthest from the pelvic area.
Ate another piece of toast with cheese whiz at 10:30. Took two sprays of CBD/THC. Went to bed at 11:00
