Since I got the Mirena, I have no period, and haven't had one for a couple of years, and it is TEH AWESOME. Like Cashmere, I will be sad when I have to have it yanked. I haven't bought tampons or maxipads in years. YEARS.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I hated the Mirena with the heat of a thousand suns. It made my periods and cramps worse. Couldn't get it out fast enough.
With diabetes, I can get away with reasonable amounts of whole wheat pasta, and double fiber bread without needing insulin. Fiber, and complex carbs
Before my thyroid deccided to get whacky, I was 28 days like clockwork. Which made it nice for predicting ovulation. Then the thyroid crapped out and I would be at 23 days, 28 days, 35 days. And when you are trying to get pregnant and your period shows up a full week late? Not fun.
Allyson!! I was *just* wondering about you and how you were doing! Like, doing a threadsuck for your name to see if I missed something! How are you?
I am alive! Back at JPL, pretty much done with the spit shine on the bat book before sending it off to Agent Kate, and starting to dip my toes back into the social scenery.
Good to hear! How was your vacation?
The roach or the HS hormone hell?
Roach. Yuck.
Alive is good. Good to see you, Allyson.
