This lockdown has not been good to me

Have been home since the second week of March. Somewhere in April, I started getting a slight pain in the stomach which I ignored for a few weeks. Suddenly last Sunday the pain became unbearable and the next day I had to be rushed to the hospital. Had a swelling in the uterus apparently. And because I ignored the pain it became worse. Was hospitalized for the whole week and came home on Friday night. Am on painkillers now for the time being. Doctors say if the pain does not subside then maybe I would have to go for a surgery. So for another month or two, I would have to rest and not exert myself. Just hoping I dont have to go for a surgery and just manage with the medicines. Have to go thru mylot to see what interesting discussions I have missed.

Doctor says it may have also been because three months I was just in the house and there was no much physical activity of travelling etc. So sitting for long hours may have caused the swelling and pain.

@mayka123 Yes I also felt weak during that lockdown period because of no activity.

I too hope everything gets alright with the medicines. Dread going for surgery especially now with the pandemic threat.

The pain was because of swelling in the uterus. Am taking medications to reduce the swelling. Will know the outcome of the medicines when I take my next tests.

Have about 16 tablets total to be taken during the day. I think that's enough to drive away the pain.

@m_audrey6788 Yes cannot feel the pain now. I am not sure its because the pain has gone away permanently or its just because of the medicines I am taking.

I can´t ignore pain anymore and I have to listen to what my body tells me. It saves me from being too sick. I hope you will not go for surgery. Don´t ignore the pain you have. It will save your life.

Yes next time I will not ignore the pain. It was due to the pandemic that I was avoiding going to the hospital for a check up.

I can see you have a good reason for not going to hospital immediately. Anyway it already happened, just you need a rest and take the medicine that the doctor had given you.

Medications have worked but its just a temporary solution. Need to undergo a surgery after things come back to normal. Or if things get worse for me healthwise.
