I have to shave everything where I live - too hot not to -you'd get smelly if you didnt. (But then I am a bit obsessive about my personal hygiene!) Dont wax though - eyebrows hurt enough.
Hey Jennie - I've aged heaps just in the last couple of years - I reckon it must be the PNI. Dont have any grey hairs....................yet - Did get a couple after giving birth though - weird hey.

Hi Wendy I'm so glad you're having happy days again. I'm trying to take note of when I'm having bad days too now - but the last time was just after my period not before it - which is strange as I used to get PMT. My sweating seems to have settled down now but for the first month I was on the AD's I was sweating heaps - it was really yucky, but apparantley a common side effect. Take Care Love Carmen P.S. I believe I owe how far I've come to all you girls too. Thankyou all so much

I'm really lucky because i dont get headaches. I've had a few since having PNI but I've never had a really severe one.
Have you been on the pill at any other time before having Leon? Some people dont have any problems at all and are on them for most of their fertile lives - my Mum and one of my sisters have been. I havnt been on it since I was 19, although I tried to a few months before I got married as I definitely didnt want to be pregnant at my wedding - it would wreck all the fun! I did contemplate trying again after I had my little one because I was so petrified of getting pregnant again and I was already nuts with PNI so thought it wouldnt make much difference - but hubby said no way and thats why he went in for the chop. For some reason the pill effects me really badly - I would either be a real b**** or crying uncontrollably. It even made me nauseas as well.
I find hormones so confusing. Its so weird how we all have these different pains. I find it really weird that as well as my back my thighs are really sore, even to touch. It feels like I've been continually punched in the back and legs and I'm really bruised.

Hi Fran,
I'm sure your hubby doesn't say anything about you being on the forum because he has seen that it helps you. I always feel a bit guilty that I spend time on here especially at the w/e's as I feel I should be with him. He, however, thinks it is important to have time to ourselves and always has done. It's far better that I have an hour on here and go back to him feeling more positive.
Once you start to recover from the pni, you will be able to stop letting things happen and do more about it but I do think it's so easy to just let things go unchallenged with this illness. Don't be too hard on yourself.
You're NOT a nutcase. This illness has made things very difficult for you but you will get better. At least now you are talking about how you feel and that's the first step to recovery. If it's any help I've always had problems with relationships (friends, family & partners) and never seem to be able to say or do the right things. I've never been able to relax and chill out, I am far too uptight!!!
Hope you are OK Love Lisa xxx

Hi Fran
Once again you’ll all have to forgive me if I don’t make much sense as its 830 in the morning over here and I’m always slower in the mornings. But I’m sure Lisa is right Fran and your hubby can see how much this site has helped and is continuing to help you. I think all men feel the need to be able to fix our problems and I’m sure this is his way of feeling like he his helping to “fix” things.
We know Fran that, as you have explained before, you use humour to cope with your pain. When you are funny – you are hilarious. But we don’t expect you to be funny all the time – there is a serious side to even the greatest of comedians. We love you for who you are and for everything you have shared with us. We know you are a caring, compassionate woman who has often known exactly the right thing to say to make us all feel better. We are all in this together – for as long as it takes.
You are not a nutcase Fran, far from it. You are an amazing mother, wife and friend. Have I thought about the fact that death would be easier to face than living with this illness for the rest of my life? – of course I have – Have others? – I’m sure they have too. Would I ever do anything about it? – of course not. Death may be easier for me to face but would it be easier on my family and friends? – of course not.
You have come a long way Fran. Would you have thought only 2 weeks ago that you could get out of your sanctuary and go to London? You did it Fran; nobody else - and you can do it again. There is a light at the end of this tunnel. We need to concentrate on making ourselves better first and then we can concentrate on our family. Our family is not going anywhere – they love us and need us to get better. We can not truly help them until we first help ourselves. But we can do it Fran – and we will – all of us – together.
Take Care Fran Love Carmen

oh Fran, Your not a nutcase and you dont talk crap either. I also use humour to ease situations or avoid talking of some. You have come a long way since coming on this forum and im so proud of you. Sharing our lives our intimacys and our stories are part of our recovery and growing friendship,theirs nothing wrong with that. humour is great medicine anyway. We all have days of soul serching. You have been out once and can do it again just dont beat yourself up over it. Got a room full of kids so dont know if making sence. Take care flower.x.x.x.

Hi Everyone
I hope no one feels that because I felt I had to move the jokes thread does not make anyone feel that can not talk about intimate stuff on here. Or make jokes about it.
I am just trying to keep everyone happy and I am sure that everyone will agree that sharing intimacies about our lives is different from re -telling and passing on jokes.
I hope what I have done in starting a humour section does not upset anyone, does not make them feel they can not share the stuff they need to share and you understand why I did this and what sort of humour is better on a separate thread - and this is not the ones that share humour about the intimacies of your lives
In hope you will understand
