I had one colonoscopy and the doctor's been nagging me to have another. The prep was miserable. Having to have someone pick me up and escort me home is an issue, since everyone I know has a job. There is a little kit where you (somehow) scoop up some shit and send it to a lab, so that may be do-able. We'll see.
Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
My doctor said he didn't trust the little kit. I was very disappointed.
Has anyone tried Thinx or some other brand of period underwear?
I have! What do you want to know?
Please get your colonoscopies, friends!! The prep is gross but it's just a few hours of your life.
Oh yeah, you still have to do the prep with the pill cam, but that part I can deal with.
What do you want to know?
Any good? Easy to use?
I {heart} Thinx. Been using it almost exclusively for...six months? Maybe longer?
Depending on timing, I might use one backup tampon per cycle (at the office) or change undies mid-day (at home), but otherwise I just rely on the Thinx.
I do wish they had an overnight style with more coverage in the front (I'm a stomach sleeper), and some of the lace trim on the hip-huggers is starting to fray, but overall I am THRILLED with how well they work.
I have noticed that after a few years, they seem to pick up a funk when in use that I can't get out of them. Only noticeable when changing, but part of why I don't use them as much as I used to.
Do you need to use any special cleaner for them? (I do notice for a lot of my wicking workout gear, I have to pretreat certain areas with stain remover/enzymatic cleaner to not leave/bake in the stink when washing, even though I hang dry)
