She had endured " insurmountable fatigue, pain and nausea" over The Years .

" A doctor told me it was simply something you deal with as A Woman and I gave up entirely, trying to function through The Pain , " she wrote.

" I knew I couldn't live like I was. Every part of My Life was getting Torn Apart because of The Pain , " She Said .
