Guest guest Posted May 18, 2002 Report Share Posted May 18, 2002 I was diagnosed with mono 27 years ago--but thought it must be a mistake, since I thought that with mono, you had to be very, very sick--I didn't feel unusually sick (just normally sick). I feel about as sick now as I did then! My EBV titer was 1:6 when I had it tested in 1990. Depression--I was so depressed the other night, I was trying to pack for a weekend away, my husband started in on my--I couldn't stop crying for 2 days--I thought I was having a nervous breakdown and would have to be hospitalized. I don't often cry like that anymore. Not sure how to handle it, just focus on something that makes you happy, that you want to accomplish? I have some Emla cream, i'm not sure that i've used it right, as it has never produced the numbing effect that it is supposed to. -2 kmnewberry@... _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2002 Report Share Posted May 19, 2002 Hi. All it really does is take the edge off. It doesn't totally numb. Put it on very thick and cover with a bandaid or that type of cover. I use it on my neck and bottom of spine. In about 20 minutes or so I notice that I am not in as much pain. I also rub it in some too. Please e-mail baack if it helps. You are the only one who answered my e-mail and I am new to the group.
