i know what you mean, i lose so much sleep though. every night i go to sleep then around 3am im awake than every hour after i hate it. then the pain doesn't help me out at all .
I know what you mean. Some days i don't even have the energy to get dressed until the afternoon. Then I feel so lazy because my husband is working hard at work and I am home sleeping in the chair. If I were you, I would sit your mom and boyfriend down (together if possible so you only have to do this once) and just explain to them how you feel. Ask your boyfriend how he thinks he would feel if he had a cyst the size of an orange on one of his testicles. I had to do that to my sons and they were like "Oh mom that is bad. I don't know how you do it." It just gives them something to compare our pain to. As for your mom, just tell her that you know she knows how you feel because at some point or another she has had really bad back pain and cramps from a period. Explain to her that is how you feel all the time and that is why you want to get a second opinion and get this taken care of. As for your principal, call him back. Keep calling him until he gives you an answer. Like I always say..."The squeaky wheel gets the oil!" If you can all sit down and have a conversation without emotions getting out of control, I think you will find they may be a bit more sympathetic. Yes, you will always get support here. We know EXACTLY what you are going through. Keep your chin up and pray about it. Take care of yourself!!
