Guys I'm friggin dying is this normal

Three weeks ago I increased my dose to 15mg and oh my God. 48 hours after the shot I'm walking up in the middle of the night to puke. Followed by non stop days and days of stomach gurgling and water poo. Not even diarrhea, it's just water. I took my shot Tuesday night and last night in the middle of the night I had the WORST stomach pains. I even had to take a day off of work a few weeks back because there was no way I was making the commute without pooping myself. Does this get better or are these side effects on the more extreme side of things? Google is unclear. I want to know whether I need to roll things back or be more concerned or what. Thankfully I'm keeping hydrated, but I thought by now my body would have evened out but doesn't seem to be the case

Favorite games to play on Board Game Arena?

My husband and I are stuck on a loop of Ark Nova and Terraforming Mars. It's a great way to time waste at work 😜. We also play Harmonies but he kicks my ass every time. Tried Agricola but I think it's better in person. Wasn't a fan of Castles of Burgundy, and there are so many games I just don't know what to choose. Recommendations appreciated :)

▲ 1 r/PCOS

Hi. Posting in this sub because I suspect I might have PCOS but have not been diagnosed. I know I have several cysts on my ovaries and have previously had surgery for them but they won't do anything for these unless they burst. I have had pain from them, off and on, but for the last year or so they seem to have quieted.

However, I have never had bad periods, and generally they are always on time. Usually consisting of 3-4 days of bleeding followed by a few of spotting. Within the last 8 months or so though, they have become increasingly irregular, and absent in March 2026 entirely. That is, until the end of the month. I have now been bleeding since the 30th of March until a few days ago when my OB put me on Provera to stop it, which seems to have worked. Next month I will be going in to get my Uterus examined and biopsied, and i'm just a little scared.

I have a history of HPV and low-grade lesions on my cervix, however they typically disappear. I had a pelvic exam the beginning of March and nothing of note was made. He did not perform a pap smear at that time as I wasn't due for one until August. My mom has had a full hysterectomy due to various issues including fibroids and pre-cancerous cells.

I guess if it's fibroids or pre-cancer, im entirely prepared to get the whole thing scooped out. My tubes were already removed and honestly my reproductive system, save for giving me a child, has given me nothing but grief. Cancer though, I am not prepared for. I consider myself young-ish and want to live for my son, and to a lesser degree my husband. The rest of it can kick rocks.

I just was hoping I could get some input with other people's experiences, even though I am not technically diagnosed. My Dr seems to hand waive away when I suggest my ovaries need looking at, even though my estrogen tested high and I feel like I have many of the symptoms. I also seem to be, lucky me, part of the 10-20% that are unresponsive to GLP-1's, despite lack of appetite and reduction in calories.

Even if you tell me im an idiot, that might make me feel better.

43F here. Even when I was younger I wasn't into like 95% of anime. It was mostly too "wacky" or about robots, bad dialogue, straight up horny stuff or otherwise. I liked dark, weird, dramatic, and slower paced. Especially anything with vampires. My favorite series were:

Saikano (Saishuu Heiki Kanojo)

Cowboy Bebop

Hellsing

Vampire Hunter D (old and new iterations)

Twilight of the Dark Master

Wicked City

Akira

Ghost in the Shell (movie)

Castlevania (original and Nocturne, yes I know, not an anime but you get it)

I tried but could not get into:

Fullmetal Alchemist

Attack on Titan

Neon Genesis Evangelion

Death Note past the first Series

I'm sure I'm forgetting others. I want to avoid intense inner monologues, plots that are complex and seem to entirely jump the shark, fast paced dialogue, fan service to some degree, constant over the top shouting, and generally just the overall "frantic" nature that I feel like a lot of anime has. Taking recommendations both old and new. Thank you 😊
