I bought an elliptical trainer some time ago and really enjoy using that. I have somewhat over done things in the past 6 months and had a lot of health problems. My Doctor and I think they are rleated to Endometriosis. I had to be admitted to hospital at one point three months ago as I had a serious flare up and it turned into an infection of the uterus. The anti biotics my Doctor prescribed would not work as I have built up resistance to the contant anti biotics I’ve had in the past 2 years with the monthly flare ups which I "thought" were UTI related but now know they wern’t. They just put me on a drip with very high doses of anti biotic for a day or so and then I had to continue them orally. Quite scary really. It eventually worked though and I am currently working on other things to keep the flare ups at bay such as natural progesterone cream. I may try vitex yet as that is said to correct hormone imbalances for women. Just gonna give this cream a shot first. The Doctor offered to script the pill but there are so many side effects related with it and natural progesterone is said to be the same as the hormone we make and less side effects associated with it that I thought I’d give it a shot for a month or two. I think I have a case of estrogen dominance going on at the moment--possibly peri menopause. Dunno. Either that or simply trying to do so much to my body in such a short space of time. The break has been good for me, but then it could be something to do with the mega doses of anti oxidants that I’ve started taking.
