As for my pain, it's been on and off depending on my environment and stress level. This week for example, I'm in my school show that opens Friday, so I know it's going to be a stressful week. Since I know my stress level and pain are related, I'm going to try my best to stay as calm as possible. If my pain gets worked up, it will make me even more stressed out, so I'm doing everything I can to keep that from happening.
A new thing with me is that I started getting back to the gym. Exercise is something that doesn't make pelvic feel great, but I know it's necessary so I don't have other health issues in the future. I've gone to the gym a lot over the past two months, so I'm really proud of myself. I normally go for two or three weeks, then my pain gets really bad so I stop going, but this time I'm determined to not let that happen. Now, I've gone enough that I'm committed to keeping myself healthy and I know my limits, so I can tone it down on a bad day if I have to.
I'm going to try my best to post on here on a regular basis from now on because my schedule is becoming less busy. Keep on the look out for more Endo related things in the media because that is really helping our community! Thank you for reading and happy Endometriosis Awareness Month and remember, Endo is not the End!
