Yay for awareness

Spotted this article whilst on the way home. Interesting read!

The article identifies a huge problem I had. Basically being told for years it was just period pain and was normal. It took me years to get a diagnosis so this article brings me hope that things may finally move in the right direction. It's not fair to be ignored, you start thinking it's all in your head and you must be overreacting!

I hope this article reaches many ladies and gives them the reassurance that it's ok to keep going back to doctors, insist on seeing a gynae, deep down it's your body you know there's something wrong!

Endo Awareness

Well I haven't been around much recently but one of my favourite bloggers has inspired me to keep at this. The link to her new blog is in the comments of the below post so thank you Caro!

I think sometimes we just need a helping hand to get us back on our feet and Caro has offered me countless support I'd definitely recommend giving her blog a read.

Anyone doing anything fun for March awareness? I've been chatting with a couple of ladies who also suffer and it's interesting to see the difference how people are treated at work even in the same workplace! I've been quite lucky but have heard some real horror stories of treatment in the workplace. I'd be interested in hearing other people's experiences.

In the mean time have a great weekend all! X
