confused! Spotting @ CD17?

So I'm really confused. I didn't notice anything unusual for this cycle at all. Normal period, normal seeming pattern of CM following af and "normal" temps for me. I don't have regular cycles. They can range anywhere from 42 days to 60+ Lately they've been staying right around about 43-48 days though. I never never never have short cycles. I've had one 29 day cycle in the last 18 months since coming off the pill and that was a while ago. the only thing that seemed kind of out of place was that my skin started to clear up but then broke out again really bad and hasn't cleared up. (which is a pre AF sign)


Anywho, I just shrugged it off because I figured it's been hotter than hot out here lately (115-123 degrees) and I just figured my skin needed to be washed more often.


So, I woke up this morning and got ready for my monthly day at the spa...wax, pedicure, you know girly stuff. :P I felt a little funny like kind of "urpy". I had indigestion so bad I didn't want to eat anything. Then towards the end of my wax (it's a special kind of wax I do for DH if you catch my drift ;) ) I felt ***TMI*** moisture, kind of like wet. Before any of you think bad thoughts it was not THAT kind of wet. :P It just didn't feel right. I thought it was just cold air

Oh, I forgot a few things. I've been sweating a lot lately. Even in the air conditioning doing nothing. I can be just sitting there and I start to sweat. A lot! and for the first time almost ever i gagged today while I was brushing my teeth. I was nowhere near the back of my mouth and I nearly threw up on myself!

I have to ask...Have you taken a pregnancy test? It is possible to get a "period" that isn't really a period, more of a overflow due to thickness of uterine lining (I have abnormal periods too) and is it possible your CD count was off? It sounds like more pregnancy symptoms to me. Just a thought.

that's exactly what I thought! so I did take a test and it was negative. the spotting is no longer spotting. It's still all old blood. There is some red mixed in with it now so I have marked it as a new cycle. It picked up yesterday to a medium flow and is still there today. :( I'm calling an RE this week to schedule an appt sometime within the next few weeks.
