Raging Hormones
At first I wondered why I was in such a "BITE ME" mood, because that's not like me. Then I discovered later in the day, that it had to do with PMS.
It didn't used to be that way, but over the recent years my body has changed, so I guess my hormones have too. I've discovered that thru UltraPMS.com I can purchase a progesterone cream that relieves the symptoms of PMS. The best part about it is, it's all natural. I love anything that is all natural. I think it is the best way to go.
I also just noticed that it relieves the symptoms of menopause as well. I wonder if I am this bad now, will I be 10 times as worse when I go through menopause???
It's an interesting, yet scary thought!

It's Never Ending it Seems
Ever since I started working at my new job I've noticed a sharp pain and numbness in my hand again. Last night it was bad enough that my husband was even concerned. It's happened once before when I worked at a wire factory. Well today the sharp shooting pain and numbness has travel up to my elbow. I can take a good guess that it's carpal tunnel. Sigh.
The one major option that I have is surgery, but that is not an option for me since I cannot afford it due to the lack of insurance and I'm not a fan of surgery. I could go with the insurance provided with the company I am working for, but their cost is extreme and I pay 20% of all bills. However, if it all boils down to it, I will probably do so.
I was looking up natural remedies and did find that vitamin b6 and b12 can help, so I may look into that.
Yoga has also been mentioned as a way to relieve carpal tunnel. I don't really have time for yoga, however. As a matter of fact I don't really have time for any type of exercise other than what I do at work.
