A Vacation from Vacation?

Hi readers,
I've been pretty busy as of late and not keeping up with my blog all that much.
I'll give a quick update here as to what I've been doing: I saw my gynae on the 1st and the day after I told him how well the treatment was going and how awesome I felt, I started having pain. It was a big slap in the face. Then, I started bleeding. I bled for six days. I went on a family trip to Powell River and wouldn't you know it? I bled the entire fucking time. I was very upset. I don't just have a period and be done with it. I pass numerous blood clots, I get migraines, digestive problems,I feel extremely fatigued and I have PAIN. Every single day I had pain. The bleeding stopped on Monday but I'm still having pains (today is Wednesday) I'm guessing there's a lot of inflammation going on. The worst is the pain in my hips. It makes it very difficult to sleep. I take Naproxen twice daily and it takes the edge off a bit but it really doesn't get rid of the pain.
Yesterday I had to attend a business luncheon and I really wanted to enjoy myself more and be more social but I was just so tired. The rest of the evening was tough as I fought to stay alert for my shift which ended at 9:30.
My family has been in a terrible mood since we got back. I've been quite depressed for the past few months and I've tried contacting my GP to seek treatment. It's been a major challenge just to get ahold of the office. Seems like it's always closed..
I feel stupid now for telling my gynae I was happy that my treatment was working and then having everything fall apart. I lied when I said "I'm so happy." Because I'm really not. It's hard for me to tell people that. I feel very alone. I can't talk to my family about it because I get the feeling they don't care. Or they're too busy to care. I know this isn't true but when you're sad that's just how things seem. I was in a very depressed state during the trip since we all stayed at separate places and it seemed they just "forgot" to talk to me.. Not to mention 3 of my cousins have new babies and it's a constant reminder that I may never have a family. I don't know if I'm being overly dramatic or not.. I'm just starting to feel overwhelmed with grief about everything. I feel sorry for myself and pathetic, and worst of all.. I feel worthless and I'm beginning to lose hope. I don't want to feel alone anymore and like I'm a burden on my family.
