The Kenyan queen of reggae, Njambi Koikai has been battling endometriosis for quite a period of time. Since she was hospitalized, she has always shared her journey through her social media handles to save future lives and create awareness.
Through a photo she shared on her Instagram account, she has discussed the side effects of the medications she gets in hospital. She wrote; ” Hey fam…so one of the major side effects from all the drugs i take/taken is sweating. The medication makes it worse. Not sure if there are any other endowarriors who sweat as much even in the cold..
So i sleep on two towels,with a change of 3 sleeping gowns or pyjamas,3 little flannels. I sweat rivers and i still wake up drenched. This is how I’ve been chilling due to the crazy heat i endure. Thank God for my mum, she’s been changing my night gowns and cleaning me up every night. Can’t sit up without pillows because of my back.
I share these stories so that little girls/young women/mothers won’t have to go through what I’ve battled or worse.
Teach little girls that extreme period pain is not normal. Don’t normalise this pain. Once we have these conversations, break the myths and taboos, we will be able to combat Endometriosis.
All in all, though i love how God loves me through it all.
I’m kindly in need of your help.
