Things can only get better?

So, two days into this week and I honestly cant imagine what else is going to happen. Sunday night ovary pains started to come on. All around my left ovary. Stabbing, cramping.

Tramadol, Paracetamols & Cocodamols included. Emotionally is where I'm struggling the most though... I've never felt so low. I feel totally on my own and very lonely. I seem to be crying a lot. Some days I cant even stop myself and have tears in my eyes all day. I'
