I felt a bit odd last Friday night, nothing specific at all, just uncomfortable and odd. Then Saturday morning I started to spot - that would be cycle day 22, so really not due a bleed on a regular cycle. Anyhow, this has continued all week. Not a great deal of flow at all, but lots and lots of clots. So my conclusion from that is that I did have some fibroids, and they are breaking down. It's now a week later and all has been quiet this evening, but I'm yet to be convinced that it's stopped.
I also decided Monday night that I was using all this as an excuse not to make an effort with dieting. I did think it was valid that I see what side effects I got from prostap so I could be clear it was from that, but how long did that really need to go on for? I wasn't really enjoying food, just eating crap for the sake of it, missing meals for a packet of crisps and all that shenanigans. So, Tuesday morning I started cold Turkey back on plan. I decided too that all this messing about with it and adding in extra this and extra that is just ridiculous, so it would be 4 packs and veg and milk (cause of the calcium sapping effects of prostap - I missed out milk the first time round). And do you know what, it's actually been fine. Today I got some bloating late afternoon that has stayed around and is testing me and my anxieties but I know it's wind, and I'm pretty sure it's stemming from a mild level of dehydration - I've had a really busy rushing around hassly day and haven't had enough fluids. That needs to be a lesson I remember!
