Thoughts
I absolutely HATE this stuff. I am only taking it to control the bleeding before my hysterectomy in four weeks. Work has been very stressful, and this medication is making it at least ten times worse, and it's really hard on me emotionally and physically. I forgot ONE pill on ONE day, and two days later I started bleeding again, it took 5 full days to stop again, even though I didn't miss anymore. If I had to take this forever, I would rather bleed to death, because I know I wouldn't be able to keep a job or friends if I kept taking it. It has changed my personality.
