Arthritis pain sneeze chest

Hello, I am 31M, I don't drink , I don't smoke, I don't use any recreational drugs.
You see my situation is the following:
About 10 days ago, suddenly and out of nowhere I got sick at night, having a sore throat, as the days went by my feelings began to get worse, suddenly I had a lot of discomfort when I swallowed food or drink things, then I had a very bad coughing, being all the time just coughing and coughing during the week, at times my eyes were itchy and I was worried if I got conjuctivitis too while I was sick with the flu or whatever happened to me, I felt dry in my throat and I was out of breath sometimes, my voice wasn't in its normal state, I was more hoarse/higher-pitched (I'm not sure which of the two is the correct term since English is my second language and I confuse those words even in my native language) the point is, my voice isn't in its normal state so I can barely speak normally and and I need to make a little effort to speak, I had a lot of mucus in my nose, and my throat and mouth felt just weird.
As the days went by, my symptoms improved, I didn't have itchy eyes ever again (it was something I experienced for about 3 days and only for a short period of time in those 3 days, like, it wasn't something I felt all day, it manifest on suddenly and lasted for about 2 hours at most), and I felt less bad because I remember that there was a day when I could barely even speak.
But after all that time, I'm still sick.
My biggest and main problem is that I still have a lot of cough and I spend the whole day coughing and they don't know when I want it to stop, and my voice is still not in its normal state so I can barely talk much, which is a nuisance because I usually talk all day on Skype calls for multiple reasons, among other things but at least the eye itchy is gone and I don't feel so exhausted.
Today I went to see a doctor to review my case, because a lot of time had passed and I still have this problem of coughing too much, and I wanted to help it.
And my doctor came to the conclusion that it doesn't seem like I have a cold, it's most likely that I'm having problems with an Allergy, and I was like "Uhm really??"
The bases that my Doctor had for that diagnosis were the following:

1. I've been in this state for 10 days now and it's weird that it lasted this long, if it were a Cold/Flu, I would have recovered and it should have ended at the 7 days of being sick, as I we well know.
2. I have a more dry cough, without phlegm/mucus.
3. It seems I haven't had a fever (but I'm not sure about that, I didn't worry about taking my temperature at some point during the week to see if I had a fever or anything really, before going to see the doctor)
4. I have not had chest pain.

In addition, the Doctor asked me to open my mouth to see how my throat was, and with the stethoscope he listened to my breathing and my body coughing.
But the Doctor's diagnosis that what I have seems to be a problem with an Allergy than something else, sounded very weird to me for several reasons:

1. It's illness season on my city and in my city practically everyone is Coughing a lot everywhere, Like wherenever I went (the medical center, the supermarket) there were A LOT of people everywhere coughing in the same manner as me.
2. In addition, my Mother was also sick at the same time that she presented the symptoms, but she recovered quickly, it lasted 3 days her symptoms at most, and she didn't have the Cough that I still had.
3. I've had problems with allergies before in my life, but I've never had an allergy that made me cough or anything, especially so persistently.
4. I have also never had an allergy that affected my voice or my ability to speak.

And the thing is that because everyone is sick everywhere in my city, I was waiting several hours for the Doctor to check me, but when the time of my consultation arrived I was tired and my brain wasn't in its best state, which leads me to worry that perhaps I didn't explain my situation well to the Doctor and I wasn't as attentive to his questions as I would have liked to realize that I was answering correctly, the Doctor was also tired because he had a long day reviewing many patients and I felt like he wasn't checking me in like great detail and I rushed the job a little because it was obvious that he just wanted to finish his job day.
So all these factors together lead me to worry if the Doctor did his job well and/or if I did my part well and a If actually correct Diagnosis was reached, because the idea that what I have is an Allergies thing given the reasons I explained sounded Odd to me.
Then the Doctor prescribed me that he had to take the following:

1. CAM ( 2,00 Mg Dexchlorpheniramine maleate , 0,25 Mg Betamethasone) every 8 hours <- Antihistamine , one tablet
2. Diclofenac sodium , every 8 hours , one tablet (50 Mg)
3. Bion3 (Something with Probiotics and Vitamins), one tablet the day.

Whenever I have to take Medications, I Google everything about them, and I understand what Antihistamines are and how they work, that they are these things that calm your Immune system, to put it in simple words.
And well, what my Doctor told me is that I am going to take these medications for a week, let's see what happens and next Tuesday he will check how I did with those meds.
So to be honest, I'm really quite Scared and worried that I maybe fucked up??
What if I have Bronchitis that for some reason is happening with a Dry Cough without mucus/phlegm nor chest pain, or I still have an Active Flu and this persistent cough that I want to end and my voice problems has nothing to do with an Allergy.
Since, if that is the case, shouldn't taking Antihistamines make my health much worse by calming my immune system when a real illness is still happening??
Like, that's what worries me, what if taking those medications and following the Doctor's instructions actually entails a risk to my health due to a wrong diagnosis??
Because what I want to read and have tried to investigate is that well.
Something, whatever, that tells me that if it turns out that the Doctor gave me the wrong diagnosis, and I have Bronchitis or the Flu that is still active or perhaps with few symptoms but still there, taking these meds (Antihistamine) for a week shouldn't it do much damange??
I know I sound a little paranoid, but I already had a crisis in the past with a Doctor (another one) giving me the wrong medications for an illness, which ended up making my health much worse and it was horrible and I seriously don't want to relive that experience again.

At the moment, my symptoms are as follows:
My vision went blurry a few days ago and it is terrifying and has not come back to normal. I also get floaters.
Increased blood pressure (ridiculous in the mornings and almost always higher diastolic)
Headaches and VERY stiff neck
Ear leakage and pressure in my R ear.
R lymph node has been swollen for awhile, is slightly tender.
Tinnitus (sometimes a pounding so loud my heart feels like it will come out of my ears, at other times, just ringing)
Shortness of breath
Pins and needles sometimes into my whole arm, often just the finger tips.
Palpitations and chest pain (went from severe to very very mild)
I am a 33 year old active female. I have always had back pain and "slipped ribs".

I just started writing a few months ago and this is my first one ever. It's a bit long but I hope it's a decent read for everyone.
Here I lay alone with this anvil on my chest up all night my body is screaming for some rest Smile on my face with a sickened soul Lost in the abyss, I see light but I feel so dull
loves all around me but I continue to feel alone Solitude is me, I can only reach a Gray tone Inside I'm yelling, SCREAMING! but I stay silent no one can hear me as my voice lays dormant
Im Lost in this sickness and not a soul can see The anvils holding me down, slowly drowning me The tunnel vision of suffication narrows my sight fighting to stay above, gasping, darkness takes the light
My Blinders aide me in protraying that im strong Blocking the darkness, but im weak, internally I feel wrong This haze called life is makeing it difficult to see I don't know how to handle this I'm losing me
Its as if im split in two, one watches as the others on the edge But the haze makes it difficult to see me on the ledge It looks like little hands, yes, little hands, my little angles Pushing me back from my inner demon entangles
But I trip and fall as my feet drag and become tangled Once agian Ive become bruised, scratched, and mangled Im moving to fast, I need to slow in order to gain a footing But the anvil has me running from a feeling of foreboding
I need a guide to help me, to help find my way But there's no one just me, can I find a better day? I've got noway out, trapped with a depressing attitude A Feeling of nothing better, I take who I am with gratitude
So I bury my darkness six feet deep in myself, in a tomb But along with my demons I'm trapped in this room some days I give all I have and still more is taken Draining my soul feeling empty and black as a raven
This allows my demons to seep through my inner walls While I'm still shackled screaming HELP! but it's an empty call Once again my demons place this anvil upon my chest Weighted down im imploding, I can't breath can't rest
Everything is so difficult while bareing this weight Especially when I have to fake being in a happy state They say a frown takes more work then if you smile I know this is a lie, because when I smile I feel so vile
My battery is draining, smiling over stretches my string Help! It's going to snap and the whip lash is going to sting The internal pain is becoming normal, I'm growing numb Broken in so many places im no longer whole only a crumb
The anvils weight is centered on my chest, i feel dred, doom My breathing is forsaken, heart skips a beat, I feel gloom I'm inches from an outburst I'm going to scream! I Can't take it anymore my brain is dreaming the obscene!
What I've been hiding for so long is about to be released The built up mixture of pain, sadness & anxiety is unleashed Tears begin to flow, then turn to sobs, but again I'm alone Locked in my room I need to be seen as if I'm hard as stone
I can't show weakness although I barely drag my own weight I'm a man, I need to be the balance to everyone else's plate Its bred in me to be the one that holds up this boulder I need to carry the weight and be everyone's shoulder
Help! I'm still alone with this anvil......

Hi, pa help naman po. Yung sister in law ko domestic helper sa hongkong. Kaso lumalala na ang sakit niya, pabalik balik ang sakit since April. Last week nag suka na ng dugo with chest pain. May bukol Siya dati sa breast, naging okay Siya Tapos ngayon sobrang sakit na daw. Nagchichills and nangingitim ang kuko pag bumabalik ang fever niya. Sinabi niya na sa employer kaso lang ayaw magbigay for medical diagnostics sabi hindi daw cover ng insurance. Nag ask Siya ng rest day para maghanap ng open na laboratory pumayag naman kaso pinauwi siya agad para magtrabaho. Pa help naman po kung Saan siya pwedeng lumapit, Embassy/OWWA/labour? Yun po sanang agarang action kasi takot po siyang matulog ngayon kasi baka daw Hindi na Siya ma gising.

For a few years, (2-3) I have been experiencing seemingly inconsistent pelvic pain. I had brought this to the attention of my doctor a few years ago, but because I have IBS, and the pain was inconsistent, and it hadn't been that long since it began, they suggested I should try to track it a little more, and if once I get a handle on it/if it becomes worse, I can get an ultrasound done. It was around the pandemic, I wasn't so crazy to get into a medical office for no reason, so I complied, and I really did agree that was a better course of action than me jumping to conclusions.
In the last few years, I have experienced that pain more frequently, yet still inconsistently, and it felt like it may be exacerbated by sexual activity and with high alcohol consumption, which still didn't help me. Now both are virtually absent from my life, and the pain is still recurring, more frequently even, and seemingly not having to do with when I menstruate, though it has also felt like my periods may be becoming more painful--relevant or not, I don't know.
Doctor agreed that the bloating/pressure I feel around my pelvis isn't normal. I got an ultrasound done. He said there seems to be two somethings on my right ovary, but he really can't say what, could be a cyst, could be endometriosis, but he agrees the pain isn't normal, and I need further testing. He referred me for a gyno and for an MRI, though I know how reluctant he has been to send me to a gyno before despite other, kind of serious concerns, because of what I assume is the high demand and shortage of gynos in Ontario, CA.
I have been trying to feel calm about this, and I am really not jumping to conclusions, but I definitely can't ignore what he told me it could be, and I really can't find much about cysts that is making me understand what this all could be. I have no clue when I will get the MRI or gyno visit, again given our very limited available healthcare, and I have severe anxiety as is, and anything having to do with my reproductive health really freaks me out, but the more I think about how long it is taking, the more nervous I am getting--my chest feels like it's gonna explode :,)
I am not seeking a diagnosis by any means at all, but what should I at least keep my mind open to this being about? Do cysts really lurk around for so long? Is there anything I can at least wrap my head around or understand about this, good, bad, or the ugly?
Your advice is appreciated.

Hi everyone, i’m recently diagnosed AS this past week. Today I woke up and it was painful to breathe. a sharp pain in my chest, ribs, and upper back and kind of down the whole right side of my body. i can only take short breathes. i had to go into work and have just been trying to suck it up.
Any tips for when you’re flaring with responsibilities/work?

2 days ago i started have chest pains , i never had them , i had them but never cared before , now i have health anxiety , and my thoughts are heart attack , im young never smoked , drank . i did last month 2 ecg’s 1 normal 1 understrain and was all ok . In February i did 2 bloodtests , chest scan , ecg at the hospital and was all good. But how i know these chest pains are not my heart ? my parents said that if i want to recover from this i have to stop do always visits. I’m 17 believe me is hard for me i just need some reassurance

I just posted my Dane in here a few days ago. She now has a mass on her leg that was diagnosed as a bone spur. No pain so we left it alone. That was about a year ago. Yesterday she started limping on that leg so we took her to urgent care and got pain meds. We have an appt with the ortho specialist on Tuesday. My question is, how do you guys do this? She’s my first dog and I’m a train wreck. A week until her appt feels like a lifetime and I can’t stop crying and just thinking about a possible osteosarcoma. She’s only 5. All I can think of is if I gave her a good life and if she’s happy and I want her pain free- and we haven’t even confirmed or denied cancer yet. I’m just so scared. I don’t think I’ll ever be getting another Dane after this. I love her so much it hurts and I can’t function in life when she’s in pain/sick. Maybe I’m too attached to my dog and maybe it’s unhealthy but she’s my baby. I don’t know, I just had to get this out to someone cause I keep crying at work and need to just get this off my chest about my sweet girl. I’m watching her on camera and she’s sleeping all day today. 600mg of Gabapentin will do that to you. Sorry if this post isn’t appropriate, I guess I’m looking for advice/words of encouragement. Thanks everyone. ❤️

MY FELLOW LYMPHOMIE WARRIORS! 🩷 I posted about a month ago about my issues with 2nd line/salvage chemo BvB (Brentuximab and Bendamustine) for refractory stage 4 CHL after failing 6 months of ABVD (Lymphoma came back in my neck, chest, and liver after completing first line treatment ABVD).
My initial plan for second line treatment/salvage chemo was to do 3 cycles of BvB but sadly I could only complete 1 and 3/4 cycles due to severe major allergic reactions (genuinely thought things were going to go more South with how unwell I got!) and the head haematologist had to stop me from doing any more chemo as they had to prioritise my safety which despite understandable, had me spiralling.
I did my PET scan the other day and the results are in! See image of scan report - DEUVILLE 2 - best score I’ve ever received! With only 1 and 3/4 cycles of BvB done! My previous score back in March with end of treatment PET scan was Deuville 5 with refractory results! Can happily say the allergic reactions and all the pain was worth it!
I will have my meeting later on this week with head haematologist to discuss the next steps - but would anyone know if my scan report means I still have Lymphoma it’s just basically all gone down to lower levels? Will I most probably need to do another cycle or regimen prior to conditioning chemo to ensure this thing is dead?
Plan is to get me to complete remission first now with salvage chemo/second line treatment before going onto doing conditioning chemo (LACE) then an Auto Stem Cell Transplant.
Thanks! 🥹

lately i've been encountering a lot of videos on YT about dying animals and i haven't been able to stop thinking about them. recently, i was recommended a video titled "how to butcher a chicken". i feel so hopeless thinking about all those helpless animals that get killed, and knowing there's nothing they could've done to protect themselves. it breaks my heart bc most animals have such short life spans compared to humans and they go through so much undeserved pain in that short time. i think what makes all of this worse is that most people around me just ridicule me for caring. they don't ever seem to understand why i feel that way. anyways, i just felt like i needed to get this off my chest. so, thanks for reading. any advice would be appreciated.

HPylori, SIBO or SIFO or something else possibly
Hello all, I posted earlier but I didn't put a ton of needed context and info so I'm posting again so forgive me. I'm a 28m in the USA on the East Coast. I've been dealing with these symptoms for the last 7 years to variable degree of intensity. The symptoms are a tightness feeling in my chest, tightness in my rectum, globus, constipation, bleeding and swollen gums, increased flatulence that also smells incredibly bad, bad breath, burping that smells incredibly bad, feeling full quickly, headaches during flare ups, vitamin deficiencies, shoulder and lower back pain, anxiety, and not being able to digest certain foods.
This all started after having to take a zpak and doxycycline for an STD, my symptoms were at their worst at this point. My doctors assumed that I had prostatitis because if my complaining about rectal pain and put me through numerous antibiotics such as Cipro, levaquin and bactrim but these did nothing. Eventually I get referred to a gastrointerologist after they realized their mistake, over the years I had an endoscopy and colonoscopy done specifically to see if I had Crohn's, I luckily escaped that, Ive done the breath test for HPylori but came back negative, I'm not convinced it wasn't a false positive and in a couple of weeks I'm going to get another endoscopy done, I specifically asked my gastro to take biopsies in my stomach and small intestine to see if any bacteria or fungus comes up.
I think it might be something bacterial because a few months after my initial outbreak I had to take doxycycline again for a different issue and all my symptoms went away for a few days before coming back in a more mild state. My gastro diagnosed my with autoimmune gastritis and said antibiotics can have that effect but I feel like she's bs'ing me because of how at a loss we both are.
Also, I noticed I felt a ton better and my globus and some of my stomach pain subsided when I stopped taking my antidepressant medication Wellbutrin. Don't know what that's about.
In the last few months in particular though my symptoms have been fluctuating. I had to take doxycycline again for a UTI and it flared up my symptoms again, my doctor put me on Omeprazole 20mg twice a day or a few months and I slowly felt okay, however my symptoms flared up again but settled down after I stopped taking the Omeprazole but then flared up again this weekend and are at a constant at the moment.
What do you guys think?

For context, ive been sick for over 1 month. The first 3 weeks I was coughing up blood every day. Within the first week if being sick, I went to my family practitioner for a check up. My doctor told me it was probably nothing. She couldn't find anything. I told her I was pretty sure it was pnemonia, but I trusted her because she is supposed to be a professional. I went on my way with some prescribed medication (didnt help me in any way). A week went by and I started feeling worse, pains in my chest and lungs, still coughing up blood. I went in for a second checkup and she said she couldn't find anything, prescribed me 2 different medications and sent me away. (Didn't help at all). A week later I called my doctor and told her my pains are getting really bad, and it was hard for me to do anything. She told me to go to the ER to get a CT scan which I did, and the doctor at ER told me she didn't want to do a CT scan on me because she thinks I only had allergies. HUH?? Since when did allergies cause someone to cough up blood for nearly a month and have pains that hinder you from working? Sent me away with prescribing me mucinex and claritin. (Didn't help me at all OBVIOUSLY). Finally I spoke to my doctor again and she ordered a CT scan (a whole month later from the date I went in for coughing up blood) and found out I had Pneumonia, just like I told my doctor from the very first day. At this point I'm pissed. I missed 1 month of work, wasted so much time and money because they didn't want to do a thorough job. I was finally prescribed the CORRECT antibiotics and I'm 99% recovered now.
People tell me to never self diagnose, but seriously, I lost thousands of dollars listening to these so called "Doctors", and I was correct in my own self diagnosis.

Hi I’m F 19 I’ve had 2 surgeries in the last year and multiple procedures. It feels like months after I’ve had surgery. I go back into pain. I had to move back in with my mom due to the fact that I have so many doctors appointments and I’m not making enough money and it gets to the point where sometimes I pass out on the floor due to the amount of pain I’m in or throw up sometimes especially during the week I ovulate I’m stuck in bed. but I still go to work and try to do every day tasks but it’s hard even just brushing my hair brushing my teeth changing my clothes getting a shower is hard. And the worst part is that my mom does not believe me that I’m in pain. I normally help out with cooking and cleaning doing the dishes mowing the lawn and everything like that but I had a really bad pain day yesterday where my chest and my stomach were on fire and I forgot to do the dishes after work. She was upset. And I tried to explain how debilitating it is sometimes with endometriosis but if someone could share their story or even just tell me that it’s normal for it to happen or something I’d greatly appreciate it because I feel like maybe I am being a baby. I don’t know.

In the echoing emptiness of my existence, I find myself drowning in an overwhelming sense of loneliness, a suffocating weight that presses down on my chest with each passing moment. Frustration intertwines with despair, weaving a tapestry of hopelessness that seems to stretch endlessly before me. Life, once filled with vibrant hues and promises, now appears as a desolate landscape, devoid of purpose or direction. I wander aimlessly through the days, lost in a labyrinth of my own making, unable to find even a flicker of light to guide me out. I grasp at straws, desperately searching for some semblance of meaning amidst the chaos of my thoughts. Yet, each attempt is met with failure, leaving me adrift in a sea of confusion and doubt. The future stretches out before me like a yawning chasm, vast and unfathomable, and I am paralyzed by the uncertainty of what lies ahead. I yearn for companionship, for someone to share in the burden of my existence, but find myself surrounded only by the deafening silence of solitude. Depression claws at the edges of my consciousness, dragging me down into its murky depths with a relentless grip. I struggle to find solace in the midst of my own despair, my mind consumed by an endless loop of self-doubt and self-loathing. An existential crisis looms large on the horizon, casting a shadow over every thought and action, leaving me questioning the very essence of my being. Gone are the friends who once stood by my side, their absence a painful reminder of the bonds that have been severed, leaving me adrift in a vast sea of isolation. I reach out into the void, hoping against hope to find someone who understands, someone who can offer a glimmer of light in the darkness. Yet, my cries for help seem to fall on deaf ears, lost amidst the cacophony of life's relentless march forward. Alone and adrift, I find myself staring into the abyss, grappling with the knowledge that the only certainty in life is its inherent uncertainty. And so, I cling to the fragile threads of hope, praying that somewhere, amidst the vast expanse of the universe, there exists a beacon of connection waiting to lead me home.

My one of my main symptoms is blood pooling, which usually just causes me pain and discomfort. I have been combating it with compression stockings when I know that I will be standing for a while. Recently my doc put me on Midodrine for the pooling (and to help my tachycardia) but it only helps a bit but doesn't fix it. But I've been feeling more fatigued then normal after the first dose wears off and the second dose just makes it worse instead of better. I get chest pain, headaches, dizziness, and feel really faint. (My BP has actually not risen much from the meds) My doc wants me to try this medication for two months but it's only been a week and I don't think that this is worth it. Is blood pooling bad for me long term? Or can I just combat it with the stockings? Or will my body get used to the medicine and it will get better? Any advice is appreciated.

I have a lot going on right now between arguments at home and ramping up for my second egg retrieval and I am having the worst chest pains I've experienced in a long time. I'm not stupid, I know its anxiety but it feels like I can hardly breathe and my throat feels like it's closing. All I can do is breathe. Just need support, kind words, maybe some encouragement. I feel like I'm going to pass out from anxiety. Thank god we have to do an ultrasound and blood work. FML

I'm 33 male non smoker no risk factor.4 years with anxiety, panick attacks and depresion.I lost my father 5 year ago from heart disse.Everything started 4 year ago with some sharp chest pain,back pain,arm pain and I was freaking that I have heart attack or some heart disease and i started to feel every body sensation and to have anxiety. I visited ER and couple of cardiologist,done numerous test and my heart was fine.They check everything and all tests were normal. I got advice to visit therapist.He diagnosed me with anxiety and depression and give me diazepam and escitalopram.I was two year on therapy then slowly lower my doses.I quit escitalopram 4 months ago,but I still have panick attacks.I take diazepam and after 1 hour I'm fine.Now without escitalopram I got my problem back .My hypochondria are back.Chest pains are back and even more intensive.I have pain in my left hand and my back,dizziness,nausea,chills.Every symptoms for heart attack.When I got this episode I take diazepam and after 1 hour I'm ok.My doc didn't want to hear me about heart tests again, cardiologist told me to not waste his time. I'm desperate and I struggle a lot.Right now I have anxiety attack(chest pain,back pain,dizzines,heartbeat,cold sweat).I got better while I'm writing this post but I know that tomorrow I will have another episode.Benzo and SSRI together give me 30 kg weight for the last 2 years.Anyone with similar anxiety?

I (32F) have been getting my bloodwork done every 2-4 months due to Graves’ disease management. I noticed that my MPV found has been high the last 2 years. It’s consistently stayed between 13.5-13.6.
I also had vitamin D deficiency and have been taking supplements for two months now. I had another CBC work up this week and I’m really starting to get worried. My doctor literally shut me down when I brought it up.
Should I be worried? My last labs this week showed it went up to 14.1 now. Everything else was in the normal range except for WBC would was slightly low at 3.88 (normal is 4.5-11). Other than those two values, everything else was normal.
I’m currently dealing with really bad GERD. Medication isn’t helping and I’m starting to develop pain in my left chest/rib area. I’m guessing it’s around upper stomach related….also having numbness in my left foot sometimes but it’s not too bad.
I’m not looking for a medical diagnosis lol just trying to get suggestions. Also, thinking about going to see a private hematologist or finding a clinic that can give me a more in depth workup.
So is this look concerning? Sorry about my English.

I am 23 years old. Started hormones when I was 19. I do feel better when I look more masculine, but now that I am getting closer and closer to getting an appointment for top surgery, all I feel is fear and uncertainty. I don't know what to do. My pride tells me to go through with it and keep being trans so I don't have to explain myself again. But more and more, I feel an urge to become a mother. I have even said to a friend, long before I started questioning myself again, that if I had a child, I would prefer to be the mother, not the father. She thought it was really weird and thought it was internalised transphobia.
I really am confused. So much so, that I am not able to explain everything on the spot right now. I KNOW if I started telling my friends, they would think I have some sort of psychosis. They would definitely tell me to go through with it and that I will be relieved once it's over. The thing is, my main reason not to do the surgery is that I want to have a child one day. My chest still is something I prefer to hide. But I don't know anymore if it is dysphoria, or just the way people look at me as someone who looks both male and female. I hate saying I'm trans. I never liked the label.
I lost a lot of people the first time I came out. I don't want to lose anyone again. But that's not the only reason I am hesitating. I am scared and confused and unsure. I don’t know where to even start, and how to tell people, and how to find someone who won't try to convince me either way. I don't know how to find clarity on this.
I just recently had my (possibly last) T-shot. I am still under the influence and don't know yet if I can bounce back from the stuff it's done.
I want medically transitioned replies because I feel that you are people who will understand this struggle the best. Some concrete questions I have:

1. How can I find more clarity about whether I want to transition or not?
   
2. How do I tell people? How do I prepare for how they might react? Should I tell them at all?
   
3. What do I have to know before stopping testosterone therapy? What will change? What do I have to prepare for? I used to have extreme pain during my period and I don't want that again. Might actually be a factor in why I chose to transition. My last period was 2 years ago when I took a break from the therapy.
   
4. Most things I can change pretty easily, since I did not have any surgeries. Except for my voice, which is very deep now. Any advice or resources on that?
   

Thank you in advance. Please do not tell me I shouldn't transition further without giving proper advice. I do not need a lecture and really do not need to feel even worse about this than I already do.
