Post Tubal Syndrome

I VISITED MY DOCTORS 3 YEARS AGO COMPLAINING OF HEAVY PERIODS WITH DEPRESSION ETC. TYPICAL PMS. I KNEW THAT. BUT HE ADVISED I GET A TUBAL LIGATION TO STOP THE HORMONE PROBLEMS. AFTER A FEW MORE HORRIBLE PERIODS AND A BROKEN MARRIAGE I AGREED. I WAS ASSURED MY PERIODS WOULD GO BACK TO REGULAR. I ASKED OF ANY SIDE AFFECTS , NONE WERE MENTIONED.
ALMOST STRAIGHT AWAY AFTER THE OPERATION MY PERIODS WERE HEAVIER, ACCOMPANIED BY EXCRUCIATING PAIN EQUIVELENT TO LABOR. LOSS OF BALANCE, CONSTIPATION, LOSS OF SEX DRIVE, NAUSEA, DIAREHEA, PAIN IN MY RIGHT HIP. THE LIST GOES ON. I STOPPED GOING TO THE FIRST DOCTOR AND TRIED A FEMALE. I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH MENERIERS, MIGRAINES, IRRATABLE BOWEL SYNDROME AND NO DOUBT HYDROCONDRIAC.
JUST LAST WEEK AFTER THE 50TH BLOOD TEST, AND SCAN ON MY ABDOMEN THE DOCTOR TELLS ME THE NAUSEA AND PERIOD PROBLEMS ARENT CONNECTED , AS IS THE MIGRAINES. YET THEY ALL OCCUR AT THE SAME TIME EVERY SECOND MONTH. IM AT MY WITS END. I CAN FIND NO HELP OVER HERE AND NOT ONE OF THE DOCTORS HAS GIVEN ME A HORMONE TEST.I HAVE SELF DIAGNOSED MYSELF. THYROID TESTS HAVE BEEN DONE AND RULED OUT.
SO THATS MY STORY. I AM NOW USING NATURAL PROGESTERONE CREAM AND HOPING TO DISCUSS A REVERSAL WITH A NEW DOCTOR ON MONDAY.I AM NOW MARRIED TO A LOVELY MAN AND THE THOUGHT OF MAYBE HAVING A CHILD TOGETHER IS SO EXCITING. WISH ME LUCK. AND TAKE NOTICE. POST TUBAL LIGATION SYNDROME IS REAL AND IT IS AFFECTING TOO MANY LIFES AND NOT BEING NOTICED. I HAD TO HAVE 3 WEEKS OFF WORK LAST MONTH. YOU CAN UNDERSTAND MY RELEIF WHEN I READ ABOUT PTLS ON THE NET.IM NOT GOING CRAZY....YAYYYYYY
