47 Yr Old Mom..Day 1 - Anchorage, AK

Oh dear Baby Jesus..I'm cramping and the itching is driving me mad. No docs here have heard of this..I [RS bleep] hate Alaska. I've taken Tylenol and Motrin plus benadryl..no relief. Just constant burning and itching with stabbing cramps. I hear ice may help. That's next. Its primarily in my upper abs under rib cage but has now spread to lower love handles. Even compression garments not helpful. And lots of digestion issues today. Never again.

You bet! Itching is tolerable. Cut down Tylenol to 200 mg. I am doing normal housework and only annoyance is the underlying itching. Activities increase it because of the circulation. I talked with the therapist today. Said itching is common she also stated anyone wearing compression garments should heavily moisturize..was glad to hear that my instinct to keep a good moisturizer down there was recommended because I haven't read that anywhere. So thanks for dolliwing me.. I've never had any followers but I'm really looking forward to seeing if this works I have a wedding in August and I really want to lose 20 pounds and loose the muffin top which as you get older it seems to get harder and harder to lose even when you lose the weight so I'll be getting my office area on Tuesday and I am quite interested in seeing how that turns out I'm having my entire lower face done and I'm very nervous so she had to talk me down a little bit but I'm going to go for it.
