Nora--my doc precribed Laxapro for anxiety, which in my case manifested itself with no real symptoms other than restless sleep, which manifested itself in--yes, exhaustion. Now I sleep better and have more energy during the day. It's wonderful.
Darn your sinister attraction!

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Beverly, good luck with the tooth!
Sophia, do go to a doctor. I had a cat bite at the end of April and within 12 hours it was infected. The doctor explained that cats' teeth are small but sharp and push assorted ickies in deep. Best wishes for your health and a not-unhappy ending for the cat.
And welcome Margaret T.

So, I don't know if I need a new doctor or what.
I'd say so. If you're aware of the risks (which are almost entirely associated with an increased risk of pelvic inflammatory disease, which is unlikely in the extreme to be a problem given your mutually monogamous relationship), there's no reason not to give you the form of birth control you prefer.
If you want me to recommend my GYN, who is an absolute joy and who gave me my IUD without an argument, just drop me an email.

Yup. My OB-gyn is pretty good about the IUD's. He says he can't understand why more women in monogamous relationships don't get them.

All the docs at work have these cute little IUD pins on their lab coats.

Man, I wish Lexapro did anything for my sleeping.

Because books.

I think they prefer it if you've already given birth but there's no reason you can't have one despite that. I would talk to him about that. Totally your choice.
ImememeN, my mother just emailed to say they broke my sister-in-law's water on Friday, but nothing happened so they sent her home. Huh? I thought there was a risk of infection after 24 hours, not to mention the poor baby rattling around in there with no cushion. Weird. She's not even due till June 2, so I don't know why they broke her water in the first place.

I hope they know what they're doing, AmyLiz.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I want to get an IUD.
