Hairydoggie, "she's found her rhythm, and MrHP is steppin' up to the plate."
This is exactly what I thought was happening. Honestly his griping that I've changed caught me totally off guard. (how many LD folks have said that?? I'm ridiculous)
My body changed after I had D2, that's for sure. The pelvic pain never really went away but after all the rounds of antibiotics and eventual appendectomy I said fuggedaboutit. I figure it's probably endometriosis but there's nothing they do about that, and it's not bad enough for surgery, etc, so I have put it out of my mind.
No, what's more pressing these days is the fact that, in addition to the onset of official menses at friggin 35 yrs old, I have sprouted my first gray hair. I wish I could say that I gazed upon it as a wonderful rite of passage but instead it has me totally peeved off, LOL. I noticed it because my hair is finally growing back in after the stress induced fallout that happened twice in the last 2 years--first over MrH getting fired and then when my dad died. I thought, hey great my new hair's about 2 inches long, right on. Then I thought wtf is that, did I get baby powder on my hair? And then it hit me. Shudder.
So to answer your post: We are indeed plowing ahead with our new M, but I have had a bit of a reality check given to me courtesy of my loving H. (cough)
