in doing this to myself? Which Rock Chick Are You? My Bjork Song is Unison! Your song is Unison, isn’t that cool? You are terribly sweet. Romance is something you have made into an artform. You love living in the moment and forgetting the past and future just for the moment. You Love, love, and…
The Professor and I have taken to playing Trivial Pursuit, Genus III, in the evenings. An ignominious defeat we suffered against another couple over the Memorial Day weekend brought the TP bug to the surface again. We’ve played three times in the past week. I trounced him in one game, he trounced me in another,…
Actually, I suppose the title should have been “Slow down, Speed Racer!” I had my cardiologist appointment today for my tachycardia (excessively fast heart rate). My sisters and The Socialist were unable to take me, so a friend from work did the honors. I may have stated in prior ramblings that I against minivans on…
I include this brief update because I know there is inherent humor in it, though I myself shall have to wait for the passage of time to find it. Sunday, I purchased Jelly Belly jelly beans. They were sugar-free, and fit right in with my diet. They’re also quite good. You’d never know they weren’t…

I had my first treatment for CTCL for 2011 today. Hard to believe Iâve been doing this for three years now. The drug I have to take before getting the light treatment sensitizes me to ultra-violet light for 24 hours so I end up either having to wear weird goggles to help prevent cataract formation…
Ok, have your OB/GYN give you a referral to an indocrinologist. There are estrogen mimicing (sp) drugs out there that can give you some relief without the dangers of estrogen.
One thing I have learned is that Drs. are so focused on some things that they miss others. I took my mother to FIVE Drs. for her sudden blindness before we hit on a neuro-opthalmologist who figured out that her blindness was caused by her inability to absorb B vitamins due to Crohn’s disease. Every other Dr. she had seen knew her medical history yet missed the fact that Crohn’s causes malabsorbtion in the small intestine. The fact that the transplant Dr. misdiagnosed your high blood pressure really isn’t a surprise. If it isn’t in the realm of what they are used to, they miss it.
You are an educated woman who doesn’t lie down for what the "professionals" say. You have done the research and you know what is going on. Stick to your guns until you find a Dr. who can help you with the perimenopause. As someone who has gone through it (and am still going through it) I can say that there ARE answers out there, you just have to shovel through the shit before you find them.
Hugs,
Bobbi
The Oracle of Pupik asked me to pass on this message to you.
"Some days it’s better to just to stay home and bake cookies."
I tend to trip over major things like shadows, dust and perfectly even ground. I also stumble across gravity pockets frequently, which quickly suck me to the ground and strongly resembles a trip.

Hmmm… didn’t you say something about moving Out West? They won’t know you’ve tripped for quite a while.
I so agree. Bats have been given awful press.
I met a woman who kept an orphaned bat tucked inside her clothing against her chest to keep it warm. The woman had cancer and was glad to be able to give life to another being.
I’m experiencing staggering inmaturity today and will retire to laugh at the thought of hot flushes until the dreadful guests we are entertaining are gone never to return.
