cute!

Thanks Sage. I'm definitely going to give it a shot! You made me lol ~ it probably is mostly about my mother. Hopefully someday my daughter will have glorious things to write about me!


I'll let...

eeb, you'll be surprised how much everyone cares here. I think it will take a while for everyone to get IES going again. Or, if it goes down, do you know the other web site?


I can't imagine how...

Great job Jamie. It's hard to face your fears like that. But, you're right, we live through it if we have to. I think you are on your way to recovery. Now attack it with every bit of motivation you...

Has anyone used probiotics? Under what circumstances? Was it ever useful during a sv*?


Thanks!


Susan

Welcome guys! I can definitely relate to that fear. I think we all can to a degree.


Veganmama, are you getting any sort of help? I have improved SOOO much from August '06. I've done that with...

Sage, I think you've answered more than one question for me. smileys/smilies_01.gif I had to flat out ask if we were doing CBT & my therapist said, "yes." I didn't see it, but what we talked about...

I'm wondering if things were reset to Feb. 2007, maybe. If you notice the posts that were prior to IES coming back are all from about Feb. 2007. If that is the case, then maybe the # of posts also...

Hi Everyone,


I've wondered if you can be successfully treated without going through exposure therapy? I've made HUGE stride over the last year. However, I quit going to therapy because we just...

John,


I appreciate the message & the site coming back! Sorry, you went through such tough times. Glad things are going better for you. Let us know if we can help. THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR,...

I've used it with minor success. You have to use it with the onset of n* & in my humble opinion, it's not strong enough during a sv* to prevent v*. But then again, my kids aren't emets so they don't...

I've been hanging around this web site a couple of years off and on, but I didn't start posting until last fall.I've seen a lot of avatars & names come and go. I think I've made an observation . . . ...

I go back and read Alvin's q & a and it makes me feel a little more confident that we'll make it through.

Glad to! I enjoyed it too. Send me a picture when you get your greyhound!


Susan

Thank goodness it's the weekend. That will give it time to run it's course. Everything should be better Monday.


You know, I don't think it's all that awful to keep your kids home every once in...

Eww. I think I would have said, "I don't allow sick people in my chairs/office/area/personal space." You can say it jokingly, but get your point across. Some people don't realize you don't want to...

Sounds like he's kind of a drama queen (or king)!


Thanks for the doggie comment. Gainer is our retired greyhound. We got him in June from a rescue adoption agency. He's such an awesome dog. I...

We're dealing with the same thing. Just keep in mind that even if it is the sv* your kids will probably be just fine. It really is unusual for that many to be gone because of a sv* unless they ate...

Hang in there. That's a LONG time for sv* to hang on. I'm guessing especially since he calls in sick a lot, that it is something else going on. I know ulcers can cause that, as well as, kidney...

I found what you were talking about! (Inside joke as I tend to PM the wrong people)


I do have a little advice on both subjects. I was on the patch & didn't like it. It irritated my skin. I did...

Hi Charlene,


I have the same thing, only my dr. wasn't too concerned. This was when I was 35 & needed to get a base line anyway. I put it off, not wanting to go through the "unknown" of what a...

I definitley agree. I get SO much more anxious if there are other stresses in my life. I think that is why Christmas isn't as fun for me as it used to be. I'm stressed & then my emet kicks in with...

Hi Amber,


I've been gone a while, so I missed the announcement. Congratulations! I guess I can't add too much to the already good advice. I've heard of Preggy Pops that are supposed to help with...

How ya doing now? I would almost guarantee that it was the meat. Going against what your body is used to can upset it quicker than anything. Then, add to the your anxiety . . .


You're stomach...

, . My body LOVES Lorazepam.


I hear ya. Lorazepam is good stuff. I'm trying not to take it very often & reading what you wrote, makes me more determined not to. It's...
