Good point... docs should work with us.... well.. they are working FOR

us... without us, their client, they wouldn't have jobs.... I was slow to

learn that docs aren't gods..... It is getting to be an art.. letting

them think they are in charge while still steering them in the right

direction....

It's kind of a running joke... when I was BAD hypo and dealing with adrenal fatigue I lost most of my 'adult' body hair, including all my leg hair... when I started on Adrenal glandular the hair started growing back... so I have leg hair again.. so it got to be a lot of fun.. the teasing of the new leg hairs.... that they were growing so long I could braid them and wear little blue bows in them..... (I don't really)

When I developed the lymphedema, well, it's really a crap shoot as to whether or not you'll pick up a cellulitis infection from shaving... it's best to use and electric razor that you can sterilize after using...

Well... to me that is too much effort.. I went so many years being a tom boy that I learned the value of having leg hair (I kid you not, it's warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer to just leave those little hairs be)

So, anyway.. that's what that is all about.

With my thyroid dosage cut back... I'm actually losing leg hair again..... and found a couple of chest hairs in the shower... having hormones messed up.. well, it messes a lot of stuff up... *sigh*

Nope... little bunches of braids are more fun.. .more of the little blue ribbon bows!!! not to mention much more comfortable on the back of the legs when sitting at the computer for long periods of time!

I live at the computer.... I have shifted so much of every thing I do to be able to do it on the puter that it has become a constant tool... I even hooked one up in the bedroom now... no telephone line in there but I can still work on other stuff...

If I'm ever able to get my palm top dream computer I'd even be typing away with something or other even while on the thrown! hehehehe

Ya, I've only had to shave like 4 times since Dan left in Feb, and it's so light colored now, that helps too. It didn't use to be that light......
