Today, I found out I have to have an operation. This will be the third in 3 years, all for completely unrelated reasons. I'm only 26 and apparently my body is already falling apart at the seams. FML

Frustration

Today, I found out I need surgery for a hernia that blew up after working out. I’ve been working out constantly to keep my mind off of my ex, who was the right person at the wrong time, and now I can’t even do that. FML

Today, I was diagnosed with a severe bladder infection that has left me in excruciating pain. A month ago, I had an ovarian cyst rupture. A few weeks before that, I badly sprained my elbow. Before that, I had the flu. I think my body is mutinying one organ system at a time. FML

Today, and over the past three months, I and four of my immediate family have been in hospital. Debilitating foot infection. Brain tumor. Urinary tract infection. Stroke. I just found out a few minutes ago my aunt just went in. I'm starting to think I'm going to be losing relatives any second. FML

Today, I found out that I have testicular cancer for the second time in two years, and they may end up removing my last testicle. Knowing full well I was also born with an extra rib, the doctor at the consultation joked, "Hey, you'll be three quarters of the way to being a woman." FML

Today, I finally sorted out my health insurance and went to the doctor. After seeing my X-rays and confirming I still had scoliosis, he also confirmed arthritis in both hips, 2 exploded discs and that I have "the back of a 50 year-old." I'm 24. FML

Second opinion

By annoyed - 12/07/2021 21:01 - United Kingdom - Banbury

Today, after three years of being in physical pain, which affects my health and daily life, I was told it's an undiagnosable condition that I'll have to deal with for a long time, as there are no answers and no fixable solution. FML

Today, I went to the doctor thinking I had breast cancer. Turns out, I have a third boob. FML

Today, I found out that at my work they are cutting one and a half of our departments, and I might need to find a new job. The problem is it's going to be really hard to get new job, as nowhere will want to hire someone who needs surgery. FML

Today, I found out I need to have emergency surgery, which is extremely convenient considering I'm literally supposed to be moving out of state in 2 days and my whole house is completely packed. FML

I can relate... bad back, bad veins, and more. I’m not even 30. Still, we find a way to deal.

I can relate I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. They seemed totally unconnected but they are. It sucks. But do the best you can. And stay on it. Log everything from GI issues, allergies, headaches, and muscular skeletal issues. They very well be a piece of the puzzle. I didn’t get diagnosed for 29 years and I was born with it.

I live with someone who has Ehlers Danlos. It's like it effects every single part of her body. I hope you don't feel too much pain and it all gets managed.

By the time I was 26 I'd had over a dozen various procedures and surgeries. All for different completely unrelated issues. Your body isn't falling apart - we just live in a world where physical issues can be resolved easily with simple surgeries. Better than living with unnecessary pain.
