My boobs still hurt from my mammogram last Wednesday . . . I understand mammograms are important, but is pancake flat really necessary?
And the sore boobs only add to the lovely acne I have. I feel like I’m going through a second puberty and I look like a pizza. A pizza no one would want to eat because it hasn’t showered in three days. A pizza who had a plastic fork gut their uterus nearly a year ago and should not have PMS anymore.
This might also explain the magically disappearing bottle of wine and bag of chocolate covered almonds. And cheese ball. And the reappearing 5 or 8 pounds hanging around my gut making it look like I’m about to give birth to a toddler.
It’s really, really awful PMS. And it’s bad to say, but it’s kind of amusing to watch Michael tip toe around the house anticipating something horrible to come out of my mouth because he did something tragic like not turn the Christmas lights on in time or forget to brush the Aussie’s butts before they came in the house so they could wipe their own butts on the very expensive area rug.
I’m going to be optimistic and say it’s not PMS but early menopause. Because that would mean there is an end to this tragic roller coaster of hormonal death.
Are there any benefits to getting old? Because I feel like I should strip down naked and run through the streets warning all the teenagers of the world to take a good look and STOP AGING, because this hideous amount of geriatric insanity is just not worth it.
Okay, I’m done. I’m not qualified to get old. It’s irritating.
But buying shoes helps.

Aah, just imagine having a needle pushed into the pancake of a boob for a biopsy while it’s being mammogrammed. See, it can always be worse.
We should shop together because I feel the exact same way, right down to the horrible acne. I feel that if my skin is going to revert back to my 16 year old self, so should my abdominal muscles and my ass. I think it’s a fair trade.
misery must love company because your post made me feel not so alone as i am going through the same thing… i’m actually tearing up (damn PMS) i’m a complete mess, but I’m glad someone else is as well (and, btw I’m holding hope for that early meno as well, my mother was there at 39 so it’s in the genes anyway)
What ever it may be you sure had me rolling with the naked run to warn the teenagers!! LOL!
Poor Runner Susan – what a drag. At least you know enough to break out the wine and chocolate.
Get your mamography report and if it says you have dense breast tissue tell them you want an MRI.
And no – the pancake thing is not necessary. An MRI is better but costs more so we get pancaked. So wrong.
BUCK. UP.
I told myself a LONG time ago that I didn’t believe in PMS or Hormonal stuff. Works for me! Never had a problem with either!
Older is better…no more tampons !
Ummm…I’m sorry!
Cyber chocolate, RS. It does get better as you get older. More hot flashes, wrinkles, and grays, but the rage turns into directness, the acne finally (finally!) starts to go away, the blowing up like a balloon lessens, and you start to get to be middle-aged cute and “spunky” (just heard that one for the first time this week), which is OK.
And, at some point, no more birth control. That wins a lot of awards.
To alcohol: the cause of, and solution to, all of life’s problems.
I’m with ya…acne and wrinkles at the same time…JUST. NOT. FAIR!
Wine and chocolate…my answers too.
It could be just Kenza sympathy acne.
IM SO WITH YOU AS WELL.
wracne I like to call it and, since Ill be 40 soon, Im asking all the same questions
Fe-Lady,
Right. I wish it were that simple. I suffered from fibroid tumors embedded in my uterus for years and 20 days of heavy bleeding each month. Believe me, if I could talk my body out of the hormones that accompanied it, I would. It’s a constant battle I wish I didn’t have to deal with.
I don’t miss the actual periods, but it’s weird how I can still go hormonal each month. I guess old habits die hard.
I’m sorry you’re going through this. I’m told the hormone replacement therapy that often accompanies actual menapause is a real thrill too.
Sorry to hear that…didn’t know. I take everything back…
I suspect Michael is due for a long bike ride.
If I can be of any service for a rebuke or scolding, have at it, if it’ll make you feel better. I’m at least 500 miles away.
Warn me if you do the naked thing, cause I want to make sure I stay in that night…
Laughing out loud. Thanks. I needed that in the worst way.
