Title: Attn: Chemist on the BB; A thought
Post by steColor on Aug 7^th, 2002, 10:47am

Hi Everyone,

Something just dawned on me DUH!

I was very late this year in my cycle. and in fact, I asked this question on the general BB inquiring if anyone else wa late this year in hopes of finding any connection with anything.

I have always been a wintertime cycler. Anywhere from October thru February. I think this year I did not begin until late May. It was so late that I was for sure I missed this years dance. NOT!

But I think I discoverd why. This could be a coincidence, I know, but I wanted to throw this out to the BB just in case it has some sort of relevance. I had a hernia operation early February adn was obviously on heavy meds. This consisted of vicodins every 4 hours for about a week then eventually tapered off of them about a week later (taking only when the pain was getting intense).

This should have occurred to me earlier, but any operation I tend to want to forget about and put way in the back of my mind. Just like when a CH cycle is over. But I was jumping up to grab something off of a shelf and felt some pulling (left over from operation) and the lightbulb went off in my head. HEY MAYBE .......

Now I am NOT, and I repeat NOT recommending taking these for CH's but mayb there is something in them that is part of the chemical makeup that helped postpone my cycle?

Just a thought, and grabbing at those darned straws and maybe it will help.

PFDAN to everyone
