No nail pics today. I'm tired and don't feel so great...

No nail pics today.  I'm tired and don't feel so great, so I am calling it a night soon.

Today at work I started having some serious pain in my guts.  If I sat up too straight my uterus and all the way down through my vag would just have these awful shooting, stabby pains.  Same when I had to pee - I just felt like crying.  I still haven't gotten my period, either, and if I had to describe it I'd say that I feel as though I have constipation of the uterus.  It just feels so tender and it was so bad earlier that it hurt to have any pressure on the front of my pelvis.  So I decided I had to go and see my coochie doctor, like, right then.  Thank goodness he was up for working me in.

He did a blood pregnancy test on me and it was negative, so no worries about an ectopic pregnancy, thank goodness.  He didn't say anything about my period being late - except that it's not THAT late and I guess he's probably seen worse so I am going to try not to worry about it.  My schedule WAS wayyy off for two weeks, so it's not like there is no reason at all it could be late.  He wanted to test my blood for diseases and even though I'm sure I'm clean I told him to go ahead - just to rule it out.

What he DID find, which I found to be completely bizarre, is yeast.  YEAST.  I have had exactly ZERO symptoms of having a yeast infection.  I think that usually a girl knows when she's got a yeastie because it's hell in her pants.  So yeah.  I have no idea how long that's been going on.  I don't know how long you have to have one or how bad it has to get to start causing pain like that.  I think I'd rather have the itchy / burn-y so I know to do something about it right away.  This one was sneaky.  🙁

Anyway, I have some pills to take and I took one around 5 and can already sit up straight and pee without being sad, so that's improvement.  I'm still really tired and nauseated, though - probably because my body is fighting off stuff.  I imagine that I'll be feeling a lot better tomorrow after a good night's sleep.  I am so thankful that it was something simple and easy to treat.  With the pain I was in earlier I was getting scared.

Has anyone else ever experienced a stealth yeastie?  If so, how did you find out you had it?
