Can this just now be dropped please - I had my say, offline, to Neil and I wanna forget about it.
I am not apologising for anything I said, but I also saw Neils' perspective... the best route for me (and the people who had exactly the same concerns as me) is to keep away from this section.....

C'mon it's nearly Christmas, let's not let one incident spoil the run up to it.

                                      

Merry Christmas Maxine

Can we just lock this thread now, please...

I will keep it going, and call the last few days a hic cup....

I don't mind what you do with this thread.....I just want the last few days to be forgotten and for all of us to make up and be friends

Sorry for the delayed reply. Been like a woman on crutches as far as internet access the last few weeks.  

I am more than happy to put this incident behind us and wish one and all of you a very

seems a tad early, but hey, I've already had two birthdays, so why not two Christmases?  

You know, that sounds like a good idea!

Well, I know this thread has been controversial, so I apologise if anyone is offended by me opening it up again. But there's something getting me down, and I want to get it off my chest, so to speak.

TMI follows...... I wanted to use a spoiler box, but can't seem able to do that now. I hope yellow blends into the background - highlight it if you want.

Things get interesting at the end of one's reproductive life as well as the beginning. This week, my period came on 2 weeks early, 16 days after the start of the previous one - highly unusual for me. And the darn things make me anaemic 'cos they're heavy anyway, so for the past day and a half I have been feeling so washed out, tired and sorry for myself. And I won't really get a handle on what's happening until the next one (i.e. is it a period, or midmonth bleeding, or what).
I seem to be feeling a bit more lively now it's time for bed - go figure.

I hope that doesn't spoil anyone's day/lunch/dreams.

Omj.... this happens to me. Have you had any upset??? Cos even minor stress, and Im 1 or 2 weeks early. Have a couple of washed out days cos its so heavy, and lately Ive been getting dull headaches around that time too.

You can get pills from the doctor for it, but so far, Im on the 2nd lot and cant see any change. According to the doc, its trial and error, so may take a few attempts to find the right one. Even if they only `ease` the problem, it would be worth trying them, dont you think?  

A lot of women worry that its a sign of impending menopause, but it isnt always. I know that, going on the ages of my mum and aunts, it should happen to me in about 18 years time, tho thats not set in stone. Better get checked tho eh?  

BTW, my sleeping pattern is cr@p too, as you know.... and thats nothing to do with periods.... have you asked the doc about that too?
