Big thumbs up to Levonelle 1500. I had NO side effects, not one...not a single twinge until exactly 12 hours after i took it where i started to get excruciating stomach cramps, i remember labour feeling very similar. I was doubled over in pain for an hour, then it stopped... then it started again... then it stopped... then it started AGAIN - you get the picture? Still no bleed, but that is not uncommon...so i am just waiting. I felt super nauseous yesterday and this morning especially, but thankfully nothing more now than some period pains.

Thank goodness that is over.

Good news also...my face, is finally healing.........BUT.......i have a very large scar on my nose. Thumbs down.

Hi gorgeous lovely lady. You've been exceptionally brave throughout this situation. High fives to you! :-)

Must be horrible having to take a pill then not know what it's gonna do. I don't like the sound of all that pain one bit. Huge well done for getting through.

Just delighted that your confidence is definitely back and wish you lots of love and luck for the talk you're going to do. If you can make a difference to just one of the kids then that's fantastic, and going to make you feel great too. Fabulous you!!!

Hi :)

Im glad the pill didn't make you sick, thats a big plus right! Not so good about the pain though, I dont remember much pain tbh when I took it.. maybe I slept through some, I dunno.. I dont remember what I did 4 days ago let alone 4 yrs, but Im sure it was ok. Those old pills (2 instead of one) were vile though, I def remember that.. prob cos I was sick!

You did really well though, I know how hard is is taking stuff, I worry over taking max strength flu stuff (had a nasty episode with a Lemsip of all things!), so well done to you :)

Im sure your scar will tone down a bit in time. I have some scars on my neck from shingles (had it twice in that spot and once on my back), those are settling down a bit.
Ppl swear by Bio-oil for scars, maybe give that a go? Apparently the cheaper version in poundland has virtually the same ingredients so who knows, it might work as well?!

From the mouth of an EX agoraphobic

-
A friend of mine yesterday pointed out what a person had written on their blog about being agoraphobic. Said person is an EX agoraphobic...this is what was said. "Agoraphobia is a selfish state of mind. Its completely "curable", and yet some people just wallow in their own self-pity and will never ever get over themselves and recover. When you are so worried about yourself all the time, how can you possibly be a good mother to someone else? Or a good wife/girlfriend/friend? I've unfortunately been the agoraphobic, and I've been the agoraphobics friend. As the friend, it was miserable. Nothing was ever about anything else but them. It was annoying and frustrating. And completely in their hands to change it, but they wouldn't. Because they're too selfish and self centered. Those aren't qualities people like in a person." Opinions please?

It DID get worse..

...now there's a shocker! I have spent the entire evening in hospital. We had to call an ambulance, these feelings in my heart were insane. I was sat in the back on the ambulance and they did all my obs. I was tachycardic, my BP was really high (usually its stupid low) and my ECG was showing Atrial fibrillation, meaning the top two chambers of my heart are beating faster than the bottom two. I was put on oxygen as well because my breathing was a little bit crappy. The medic man stuck a candular in my hand and hit a valve apparently, my hand swelled up in seconds, it was so painful. Got to the hospital and did all the necessary things and then we had to wait...and wait...and wait. Where they'd stuck that needle in the back of my hand and hit the valve, it started going dead. I couldn't feel 4 of my fingers! I called to get someone to take the bugger out. I'm left with a lovely bit blue bruise this morning. My step-father was called to pick us up because we thoug...
