Okay, it's definitely not a bruised tailbone. I am off to the clinic in 45 minutes or so, and have been praying for this moment for several hours now.

So I got home last night, to more excruciating pain... and found that I was bleeding. Heavily. And not from a spot from where one is supposed to bleed, ever. Eight hours later, still bleeding.

I can actually feel a swelling, or some sort of growth there the size of a golf ball (I'm pretty sure that it's pressure on this which is causing the extreme pain). I'm hoping it's something stupid, like a cyst or (God help me) hemorrhoids (but Dr. Google tells me my symptoms aren't right for that). I really don,t know what it is. I'm out of my depth, and therefore going to see a professional.

I'm still in lots of pain, and I think eight hours of bleeding qualifies this as Extremely Not Good™.

Gah.

Good lord. I'm hoping it's just a polyp or fluid cyst of some form; please do post with an update when you have one. Would you offended if I said a misheberach (prayer for health and fast healing)?

Never offended. In fact, it would be much appreciated. :)

I will post an update as soon as I can. Of all the things that could possibly go wrong with me, this would be on my top five of things I don't want. Seriously, I don't feel like going to a doctor I don't know and having to explain exactly what my symptoms are. :P

Oh God. I hope it's a cyst or something equally not dangerous. Even with strange and alarming symptoms, non-serious conditions are always more common than serious ones... I'll be sending good thoughts in your direction.

Not fun. Still, odds are it's something fairly minor given the fast onset and it'll probably heal faster than a busted tailbone...

Heh. Don't worry about it. I just got home now to both comments, and the first one made me giggle. :D

I shall call you tomorrow morning.

Here's hoping it's nothing serious. Good luck and keep everyone updated.

Thinking good thoughts!

ouch, that sounds horrible. It does sound like a cyst or polyps, though, which are easily taken care of.

(the crazy thing is...it's the worse things that don't hurt)

nonetheless, definitely not fun. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers that this is over soon with the least amount of pain/hassle/embarrassment!

Eight hours of bleeding from a place that does not usually bleed qualifies as Extremely Not Good, yes.

Joining everyone else in the crossing of fingers and prayers and shtuff, for no more pain, a quick and easy resolution, and no more worries.

Don't be afraid to ask if you need anything.

Ouch. Sorry to hear that. Take care of yourself, and let us know if there is anything we can do.

Keeping fingers crossed for that it's nothing serious and all will be resolved soon. Keep us posted!

Oh, no! Please let us know. You're in my thoughts and prayers, hon.

That is scary. But I think it may be something not too serious, I hope. If you did bump your tailbone at some point it could have caused an abcess or cyst somehow and hopefully that is all it is. *hugs*

Ack! I hope you're able to take care of it quickly, painlessly, and effectively. :-(
From: [identity profile] montecristo.livejournal.com
Well, let's just hope the medical establishment have you patched up and singing again with all haste. After all it just wouldn't be any fun watching you mope around and wince and leave icky spots of gore everywhere!

Do let us know when you find out anything. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Egad! I hope things turn out well, and that you're on the mend quickly!
