This stupid disheartening disorder

Whine warning!

It's been a rough three weeks. Three weeks ago, I was doing really well - x-c skate skiing, feeling stronger, etc. Now I've missed an entire week of work as the result of a cold that quickly, and without obvious cause, descended straight into bronchitis. I have been unable to sleep for the past two nights because of very significant discomfort and pain in my rectal and vaginal areas, and pelvic floor.

That's what I hate about all of this - it can happen so fast. You're flying high and then, Ka-Boom - you're right back to square one. All that progress seems like it's for naught. sigh...

I've got to get in to see my gynecologist this week. I am hoping big time that I just have some sort of odd infection down in the sensitive zone. I hope big time that I am not entering into the hell that is pelvic pain syndrome. I really don't think what's going on is pelvic - everything is raw and abraded - more like an infection. My big dream is that my doc will say "You have infection x and here is drug y that will fix it." But how often does that happen in the world of CFS and FMS?

I am somewhat depressed - not to mention a tad sleep deprived and in pain in an area where you absolutely do not want to experience pain. It sucks.
