Owww.

So for the past few months I've been getting these inexplicable extreme pains in my lower abdomen. It's been random when they happen until the past 3 or so weeks when it's been almost constant. I went to the doctor a couple weeks ago, and they sent me to get an ultrasound. I finally got the results last week and it turns out I have something called Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (or, as I call it, POS). Basically both of my ovaries have multiple cysts on them. There is nothing they can do about it until at least 3-6 months from now, if I'm still in pain. For the time being, I pop painkillers like they're candy. And they didn't say what happens after 6 months. I just know I can't handle this for that long! Gar!
