stands, i can relate to dealing with "boobs" who think this disease does not exist. i am lucky, in that my doc is very good and treats ones like us. as far as intimacy, ironically i have time free of symtoms. don't know why, perhaps the flow of endorphins (the body's natural painkillers) from the "fun" is why. that and what feels good a welcome relief from the pain the disease causes. also the cumin powder been intaking has not only been helpful for internal cleansing and helps with symptoms of disease, like joint pain appetite,, and lots of other stuff, but has added bonus of being an aphrodisiac (whoo hoo
) so visits with hubbie always nice. but different strokes for different folks, think why things vary for many of us is this disease attacks our weaknesses and why we have different problems. the sex thing, frankly i think this disease WANTS us to be miserable. to be isolated and weak. but there is validity to your argument. i think our body temp gets higher, with "fun" and that disease gets more active, why for you it gets worse. for me, the endorphins and something positive makes the endorphins why suffer less, i guess. may want to cap up in gel caps the equivalent of two tsp of cumin (the cheap type can be found in mexican aisle, used for chilis and curries) will take about four days to get into system. the negative side effects are nil, and would like to know if this cheap therapy as added tool is beneficial for you. it will also help to restore clarity of mind and reduce brain fog and keep you digestive track cleaner, reduce abdominal pain and digestive aid and increase appetite. it really helped me eat, and i am real thankful for that. many do the tea from seeds, but i found that the powder seems to have a higher absorption level. with allo the money we spend, dropping about fifty cents or a dollar a bag is pretty cool to have possible relief. not super tasty by itself why recommend capping. but in ancient rome and bible times was used as medicine. here is a link if need to get gel capsules empty, and have no stores around to get them. may get at healthfood store if able.
