Welcome CD 1

Well I never thought I would say it but for once I'm happy to see AF. After what has to be the longest cycle I personally have EVER had (my body tends to be annoyingly regular) which finally topped out at 41 days, AF finally decided to show this afternoon. And not a moment to soon. The last few days I have been an emotional freaking wreck. I'm hoping that will improve in the next 2 days or so. I've spent the last several days feeling like I am constantly on the edge of tears and that everyone is against me, talking about me (they still might be, just because your paranoid and all that), and planning the ending of my job. The itching also seems to be letting up some which is great!!! I actually found an article on line the other night about a woman who was having a topical reaction to estrogen patches and when they gave her oral estradiol she had systemic (all over) reaction. So maybe it is possible to be allergic to estrogen. Sucks to be me huh??? Basically I'm guessing that for my next cycle even though I won't be doing stims I will likely be on a steroid the entire time I'm on the vi*velle patches. Goody. Well I think I'm feeling better today. I'm tired but nothing another 6 hours of sleep won't fix. Tomorrow I'm off to SF.

Glad your are getting back to feeling a little better. You probably have a whole 41 days of emotions built up that you need to let out. Have a nice day in SF!

Have a fun time in the City. I'm Bay Area, too. Glad AF finally showed. Long cycles can make a girl feel crazy huh? I promise I was not talking bad about you.

I hope your emotional state improves over the next few days - it never ceases to amaze me how AF can wreck havoc on my life.

Get a good sleep and enjoy your time away!

I hope you have a good and safe trip to SF. Sorry about the itching and having to be happy for AF. But I hope that with it starting at least you'll feel a tad bit better. The itching sounds miserable! ((hugs))

Long cycles are such a pain! Sorry to hear about the estrogen reaction... as if it doesn't already cause other issues! Wish you a safe trip and hoping you find time to rest! Take Care!

Allergic to estrogen? Holy crap! I can't do estrogen myself because it gives me terrible edema...
