- Hey, I still have my good looks. :-).
-
- Actually, I'm happy to report that my odor problem diminshed somewhat,
- along with the accompayning anxiety I had over it. I'm holding off now
- on any more MD appts and just trying some of the home remedies that some
- of you have suggested. I was so frantic when I wrote the post (and I
- should never do anything during a PMS week, but that can be the subject
- for another post) that I must have sounded silly.
-
- What it showed me, is that I'd better try to avoid sweating the small
- stuff as much, serious as it is, because what would I do I became
- cripped, or was terminally ill. I can recall in one of the Woody Allen
- movies (?) when Woody, a know hypochondriac was misdiagnosed as having a
- tumor. Which is why I'm staying clear of going to the doctor's office
- for a while. :-). Just kidding. Anyhow, thanks again for those of you
- who do belive this hasn't been easy experience.
