My body needs support, as I also made the life decision to stop TPN, the support that keeps your body functioning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe do not know how long I have left, but each day is a gift.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDO NOT TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER! You know your body better than anyone! If you are in constant pain, constantly justifying that bad period, that bloat, that cramp, that swelling\u2026 keep pushing for answers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, my absolute hope is that there is nothing wrong. But please, please get checked. And if you still feel like something isn\u2019t right, go back. Ask again. Push again. Be a pain in the arse if you have to.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wish I could go back and tell the younger me just how important it is to listen to your body. We are so good at putting things down to stress, periods, hormones, getting older or just \u201cone of those things\u201d  \u2013 especially as women.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t change what has happened to me, but if sharing my story makes even ONE person book that appointment, ask another question or push for another opinion, then it is worth me putting it out there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlease don\u2019t wait until something becomes unbearable before you think it\u2019s worthy of being checked. You do not need to justify being worried about your own body.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf something doesn\u2019t feel right \u2014 keep pushing.
