That was also a reason for us. Even if we weren't able to conceive, I had Post

tubal syndrome and was hoping that the TR will ease the symptoms.

just to play advocate here girls, some people have the TR not to

have a baby but to repair what they feel they did wrong or to try

and fix medical problems. When we first decided to do the TR it was

to try and reverse some of the medical problems I was having and

since we had the TR we are going to try for more children but our #1

reason was medical. Though even for that I was not excited to have

the scar but any scar was worth it to be rid of my problems.

Though I am not trying to annoy anyone here with this statement.

Just a thought!

Just want to update everyone, I had tr last Thursday the 5th. it

went great, right 8.5 and 6.5 left. Im feeling alot better, the only

thing is i get a very sharp, kinda hot pain about 5 inches above the

insision on the right side. ITs not constant but it really hurts, has

anyone got anything like that?

Im so happy to be fixed! i keep telling dh that im not broken

anymore. its wonderful.

I think for both the Tl ANd TR its how your body handles it... When my sister

and friend had there TLs youd have thought they died...... THey were sore for

days....... I came home made fried chicken, Mash tatos and cheese cake homemade

cheese cake......... I felt the air later and it bugged me a bit but it wasnt

that bad..... I think its a individaul thing... Noone can know how you will

react..... Maybe it will be ok never know till ya try it .......... we are here

for you...........

Thanks Enid:

Yes my Gladiator (type of van) is parked right outside, and I almost

can't believe it happened. Tomorrow and I and " Gladi " head to

Maine for the weekend, for some R & R and lobster, and a few steamed clams

drawn in butter.

Hey C, I was playing with my new toy today, and guess what???? the

bed is electric, all I have to do is push a button for it to work.

Have a great weekend gang.

Rita, and " Gladi "

Luv & Hugs!

Based on my symptoms I believe I have the dysesthetic vulvodynia and am

wondering what the nerve conduction test involves. It sounds like something

that might be rather unpleasant but perhaps I am wrong.

Hey-would you blow a little bit of that warm air into Illinois? It wouldn't be so bad if it weren't windy. Are you having what they call 'Braxton-Hicks' contractions? I had them for a month before my youngest was born. My doctor said my body was getting in practice for the real thing. I told him I'd had enough practice! Good luck tomorrow!

Love,

(unknown)

Actually, Causalgia was the first or second name they gave RSD in the very begining. I have a pamphlet here somewhere....I'll find it here later, which explains it. Causalgia and RSD are the exact same things.....but there are alot of other diseases that are also called causalgia.....its just one big heading, like the Complex Regional Pain Syndrome is (CRPS). I guess docs just don't like leaving something the same as what it has been for very long.

Jo,

Hate to hear about the flare up......I've got one going on that includes contractions in my lower back! not fun!!!

Hope everyone is having a better day.....Mine would be great if I could get outside....its 60 degrees out! we've broke the 100 yr record for our area!

Tomorrow is supposed to be between 65 and 70 degree's out....which will break another 100 yr old record if it does! lol.

As for the false contractions.....if they can be between 15 and 5 min apart.....then, thats what they are...otherwise, I just wish they'd get closer and stronger so I can get this over with!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm tired of being a beached whale being harpooned! Thats exactly what I feel like right now!!!!

Tonia,

It's supposed to get warmer, like in the 50's, here. I should take a walk. Maybe I'll walk down to the grocery store and then my daughter can pick me up there to go to Mc's for lunch. That way we'll get in line sooner!

Contacted SSD today. My claim is still sitting in the medical decision department. No surprise!

They had a news story about the foster system being over-loaded and they're literally "losing" kids. Tell them they don't need any more kids to worry about!Love,

Well, I hope he's waving at you real soon--sounds as though he's playing "on the mark, get set" but not "go" yet! Just don't have him so fast you can't make it to the hospital! Have you settled on a name? Be thinking about you today!

Hi Sharon wow you have been through a lot as well as your Mum. My mother had mental issue but would never admit she had any. I was usually the adult in the house because she acted more like a child at times. When I was 5 I found her she had tried to kill herself with an over dose of my Grandmother's sleeping pills. I was never so scared in my life. I came down and told Grandma and my Dad that something was wrong because I can't wake her. They finally believed me and went a checked on her. Than I remember hiding behind the porch swing when the ambulance came to take her away. I had never been so scared I thought my Mom was dead. Well, she pulled through but still never got any help. So to make a long story short my Mother will be dead 3 years this month. I was the one who found her again only this time she had been dead for 2 weeks. That is a site and smell I will never forget nor should any one find there loved one that way. It was a Godsend that's she passed she is finally free of all the torture she was in. I miss her a lot. Thanks about the info on the ANA test. They called today to say they were sending me for more lab work and then to come back in a month when they have all the results in and the records from my Nuero doc. I pray this doctor will be the one that finally says yes this is lupus so I can get on with it.

Thanks

*If you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on. lin D. Roosevelt

Ok, since this was at the bottom of Cyndi's post, I've just gotta change it a little to fit the way I feel today.....

If you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hope no one finds you first! just make sure what you hang it on is sturdy!!!!

I hate cluster headaches and cold weather.......and anyone want 2 kids for a few days/???????

I tried to go to bed like 5 times last night.....if I didn't have to move Crystal off the bed into her own.....which was 3 times, then when I did lay down, Sami would wake up, complain about this or that.....then wake up Crystal again......turn the darn light on in their room which would reflect off my door and right into my eyes.....the TV just had to be blaring no matter what.........and to top it off, even though I went to the bathroom before I laid down each time, I had to get back up within a few min to go again!!!!!!

I finally got to bed at 6:30 am.....after waking everyone up and letting them know exactly what I thought of all of the bullcrap I put up with all night! I figured if I had to stay up all night and put up with it.......they could all get their butts out of bed early and deal with it!

I ended up getting up at 10:30.....both girls seemed to think that they needed to run thru the house, stomping and going it like a pack of elephants......and of course my bedroom is on the way to theirs.........now the top of my china cabinet looks like a toy store from all of the toys I've confiscated, Crystal's butt looks like Rudolf's nose.....and Sami is lucky that she still has any teeth left from mouthing off and throwing her baby fits!!!!!!!!!!
