Hi there.
I am in somewhat recovery and today went out for a bikini wax!!!!
The warm wax and pulling off was not the problem....the therapist kept pressing pressing pressing on the cooling wax, and then after bits were ripped off, she pressed lots again with some special powder.
Every time she pressed I would have liked to kick her but I stayed the process.
After wards it felt as if I had brusises there and the feeling made me quite nauseous (as though someone had made me chew cotton wool, that kind of eurgh, make it stop). I have had waxes before and this was not the pain of ripped our hairs or too hot wax.
WHY MY QUESTION?
My doc has dx ME, but when I saw him a few visits ago, I told him my glands were always up in the my groins, armpits and throat. He felt my throat and told me it was thyroid cartilidge, not my glands.
I think after todays experience that I obviously have tender glands (permanently though I dont usually press them like this!).
I also feel much more tender if I go for a massage these days, I just cant handle the chinese massage I used to have, it feels like im being tortured, sore, tender.
HOW SHOULD I RAISE THIS WITH MY DOCTOR IN RELATION TO ME?
