....but this cycle was very different than any of my others. I have been pain free for 3 nights now, and I'm hoping that means this episode is over. Has anyone else had their pattern change drastically from one cycle to the next? Before, I would be awakened at 2 or 3 in the morning, suffer horribly for 45 minutes to 2 hours, then sleep half the next day, with that pattern repeating 3 or 4 times over the span of a week to a week and a half. This time I went for a week with HAs every night, mulitiple times a night....every time I tried to sleep the HAs would hit. Towards the end of this episode I was able to get sleep after around 10am and before 7pm. Also, is this something that might cause problems getting insurance again when I find another job? I really appreciate all I'm learning about this stuff from ya'all who have suffered with much longer than I.
