Does anyone have leg/foot cramps at night that wake you up?  I have them before getting sick. 

Also does anyone have edema of the feet and ankles?  It goes up and down.  It has been worse since my eye operation.  Matia says that the steroid injection in my eye, messed me up, since I am new to treatment (3 mos.)  It has been a week since my extreme bladder pain that came on for one evening.  Hasn't returned. Thanks for all your blogs. It is all so scary.

So, i was wondering about a couple of things:

Does anyone have night time anxiety? I am not anxious about anything I just feel anxious it comes on at 10 and it is usually worse during my period.

I still have some major hormonal imbalances to work on. It's 2 am and I am so anxious. I just wish i could sleep.

I recently found & test-drove the Mbeze line of deodorants and highly recommend!  (I'm going to try their body mists next, spraying just on my clothes as Matia recommends.)

So I found a great PRE-MADE pizza crust!!:  Nature's Hilights Brown Rice Pizza Crust.  In frozen section.  I got mine at Whole Foods; you can find it many places online. Only ingredients:  whole grain brown rice and potato.

And fyi, the previous one suggested on here -- French Meadow Bakery spelt pizza crust -- I couldn't find it, contacted the manufacturer and it's discontinued.

(Excuse my recent multiple pizza posts but I'm so excited to finally have pizza... for some reason more than any desserts!, which is unlike me.)

When your new in treatment it can be scary reading some of the posts or stories. Everyone has come from different places with different paths. Some of us will take longer to get there but we all get there eventually. I ask you to have understanding that when your reading peoples posts they will have a different histrory then yours. It might be long term antiboics or born with immune problems even passed down issues from the mother or father. You just don't know.

I hate to complain on this lovely mother's day with my husband and two beautiful boys...on the other hand this mother just needs a place to talk about the rough time with the bladder.  I'm grateful to have a place where everyone understands.  My husband has been so patient, encouraging and supportive, but doesn't really know the half of it the way you all do.

I have been going through protocol changes for weeks.  In the last week its been daily.  In the last 6 weeks I've had maybe 2 days of some relief from bladder urgency.  

During my eye surgery, my eye was injected with steroids two weeks ago.

Hey everyone I am thinking of having a support group this tuesday at 4pst time. IF you don't have the number and you would like to join let me know.
