I went to the doctor last Friday. I'm still bleeding!!! Yikes. Anyway, I had lost 5 pounds since my last weigh-in (maybe from all the blood loss haha), so I was cheerful even though I was really weak when I got there. I had forgotten my iron pill that day. I think I do it on purpose. I get paranoid that I'll take too much iron even though the doctor already told me I was mildly anemic, so I think I purposely "forget" to take the pills. It's OK until I get cold sweats mid-day and feel weak towards the end of the day.
The doctor swore I could take megadoses of the contraceptives. She said the bleeding should definitely stop, but it hasn't. Granted, it is not as heavy, but I'm still bleeding.
Why? I'm a bit scared.

i have been there and done that! it is NOT fun at all. i feel your pain. they found out i still have cyst on my ovary,and they put me on the strongest pills.it's funny you wrote this today because i just wrote about my issue in my journal! i went over 4 weeks non stop,stopped for a week,then started right back up for another three weeks, thought i was going to die,girl! my husband almost went crazy...so i know what you're going through. it takes a little while for the pills to really get in your system,but they should be taking an effect any day now. i was also told to not do any exercises at all until my bleeding stopped. she said for me to get and stay off my feet unless i wasn't going to be very active while i was up. be careful that you don't do a whole lot, and hang in there-get better soon!!8-)
