The new incarnation of the PAM thread - to be able to bitch and whine without judgement about every day stuff; all those little things throughout your day that just make you want to scream!
I'm on the pill and yet for the past several days I've been having cramps and a small bit of bleeding. The Navy Medical Center doesn't carry that new 365 days a year b/c pill, so my gyno just told me to take the regular pill every day without stopping. I've been doing that now for about 5 months, but only in the last couple of weeks have I been experiencing the cramping and spotting. I wonder why it showed up just now? The "period" you get when you stop the pill after 3 weeks is a fake period anyway, so I have no idea what's going on with my body. I just know I've never been comfortable with my reproductive works and I just wish it would all just fall out of me.
What the HECK??
I got an email from someone on a different board that I go to that was hurt by a message I posted on this site back in January.
It was back in
January. But all of a sudden she has decided to take offense and be all hurt by my comments in a vent that was on a completely different site. (Not even connected to the site she had posted on.)
I emailed back and explained that I
had emailed the mods on that board. And that I had vented here.
Fine. I have now been busted in the fact that I was peeved at a random email on a Internet message board. But that I can't comment about certain things online because it will hurt people's feelings. (Who don't really know me IRL and she probably has never been on the board I vented on before that moment.) GRRRRRRRRR.

I hate changing boards. Every time we change boards, we lose all those old classic threads and references. When I think of all the interesting articles, links, rants, etc. that we have all posted that are all lost in cyberspace now, it makes me very depressed.

Yes, indeed! We really build a rich opus with each board, and it's a shame we keep losing them.
Anastasia: I take the pill packs back to back, and I get what they call "breakthrough bleeding" every few months. When I do, it's pointless to keep taking the pill because I'll just spot for weeks and weeks, so I take a week off. I suspect your uterine lining is building up minimally despite your body thinking it's preggers, so who knows. I know it pisses me off too, as the only reason I take the pill is to avoid getting periods! One every two or three months for me is better than once a month, though. So I try and look on the bright side even though it SUCKS! You are lucky it's only every five months.
CFS and PG: the old board still lives, it's just dormant. Same addy... wekidyounot.org/board, but all the theads are locked. But you can refer to them.
I know. Starting over kind of sucks. This is the fifth or sixth incarnation of the board for some of us!!! LOL


My car club lost its website admin/moderator last weekend. So far I have taken upon the job of keeping posts up to date. The guy who runs the server that we are on, transferred the admin duties to me officially.
Well...so far this evening, I have managed to DELETE half of the forum/message board with no understanding of what I did or touched. And with no flipping clue how to get it back on the board. I have been on the phone for hours with varying people who tried to help but could not. One of them gave me what he thought was a current phone # for the server guy.
Naturally it was not the correct number. I am ready to cry. I sent messages to the server guy to get his help and to all the active members of our car club to let them know that yes, the site is screwed up and yes, it will be fixed.
I don't know what the HELL I was thinking! I really don't. I do not know jackshit about message boards except how to start threads and post messages.
I was able to get into the vBulletin control panel area for moderators and was completely and totally lost. If anything, this experience has given me a new and total respect for anyone that is a moderator.
I am hoping that this can be resolved by someone who knows which end is up, cause it ain't me.

Have you considered the Mirena IUD? I have one and love it. Aside from some cramps off and on, I esentially have no period at all. I don't bleed, I don't get PMS, or bloating or any of that. For all intents and purposes, I have no period at all - due to the miracle of the Mirena. I don't even need it for contraceptive purposes anymore. I got divorced in January, and now I'm only dating women. Regardless, I want to keep my Mirena forever (or get it traded out for a new one every 5 years until menopause)
2008Cruiser, please post in the old names/new names thread in Coffee Shop so we know who the heck you are!

My PAM for today is that my bed pillows absolutely SUCK, and I can barely move my neck today. I want to buy new ones, but I can't really afford to get good pillows right now (since the good ones that last more than a month are often kind of expensive). I've spent so much money on pillows and I never seem to get ones that are "just right". There must be a science behind it, but I find buying useful pillows completely mystifying!
vanessa
Well, it was nice for the three days it lasted.......
Vanessa I hear you about those pillows.
ITA.. Everytime I think I have a new pillow that helps it does not.
BUT if your serious about Pillows.
I do recommend this one kind of pillow. That use to be a
big seller. Mine is old and yellow, but still in good shape & I never travel without it.
Its called a Sobakawa pillow.
DH calls it a bean bag pillow. It may look and feel that way but, it really does work.

My PAM is about the same.
Not so much about pillows. But I must have slept wrong. I think my
Sobakawa pillow fell out of the bed in the middle of my sleep last night. Cause my neck is killing me.

I don't know which hurts worse, My neck, my throat or my
va ya ha, lol
But all 3 are miserable.

I HATE POLLEN!!! I went to the dr Saturday because of a major sinus infection. 2 shots & antibiotic pills later, I still feel like I've been eating dirt. The shit is EVERYWHERE!! Even though we had major rain lately. gggrrrrr....
After all that I have been though this past week.
I still am having urine problems.
Burning & frequency.
So I called DR H & made an appt for Tomorrow.
Maybe I can get lucky and I will get my results of my D&C along
with it.
Cause something is causing this pain, & damn if I know what it is??

If I did, I would have the $$$ an OBGYN makes.
Edit: Already been to a Urologist & he said my bladder is perfect. So it is NOT
that!
Good news? It's supposed to be in the 70's today.
Bad news? It's supposed to be thunderstorming all day.
Yuk.
Vanessa
Good news: The office is going out to lunch today!
Bad news: We have to come back to work afterwards.

It's a bloody Friday! Just let us go home!
Christ I got yet another UTI
This is due to Post Op infection.
Of course DR H has to cover his ass by saying that is not
uncommon. But he is not the one that has to drink a Gallon of water!

The co-irker who is undergoing treatments for leukemia possibly has another tumor in her brain. And may be off work for 4-8 weeks after surgery. I feel bad for her, yes. But the central office will be riding our asses about intake numbers being down, yet will not part with one red cent for me to work more hours per week to increase those numbers. And I am not donating time for them if they cannot be bothered to pay me for more than 20 hours a week. Shit heads.

I don't blame you one bit for being pissed ozarkmoon That sucks for sure. Especially if your willing to step up to the plate & work more
hours. But no way should they expect you to do it for free, FTS=
Fuck That Shit.
My PAM:
Just when I thought the bleeding stopped it started again
and I messed up a good pair of panties too grrrr

TG for Spray & Wash
I'm writing up my little dissertation on why I want a hysterectomy when I go to the "rape doctor" (sorry if that offends anyone, but I have my reasons for that name) tomorrow, and I'm suddenly sitting here wondering if I'm really ready to do something so drastic. What the hell??? I still hate kids, I never want them, I want that stupid organ gone...why am I suddenly hesitating? I know my life will improve tremendously if they don't fuck it up. Maybe that's why I'm worried so much. I don't know. Maybe it's just that I hate surgery and wish there was some non-surgical way to manage my problems, but I've run out of options there.
I hate my brain.
On another note, I'm also coughing up all kinds of shit from my lungs. Weird.
