"i bled, oh did i bleed. i had baseball sized clots falling out of me. for months. let that sink in. got through that and started having irregular periods, never knew how long they&#039;d last or how heavy they&#039;d be. they&#039;d go away for a day or two and come back full force. no big deal. i had a long standing boyfriend and we dealt with it. the weight gain...oh lord. i gained close to 40 pounds in a year, despite being on a ketogenic diet and working out. i couldn&#039;t shed it. i hated it. then came the mood swings. when i say mood swings, i mean it felt like i wasn&#039;t even being treated for my bipolar (which was controlled for over a year btw). i was scared of myself, others were scared of me. 

i&#039;m done. being removed 12/28!!! couldn&#039;t be happier."
