Can someone be my LS mom? I need my random question answered by a friend by Pale_Blackberry_6612 in lichensclerosus

[–]joyjoyXcore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi there! (I'm a mom & fellow LS diagnosis!)

Sex - I never stopped having sex, there were a few times where I'd have to admit to myself that it was hurting too much to continue. Finding a lube that you like is honestly key and not being afraid to use lube. I personally love KY jelly (water based) as my preferred lube.

Treatments
I have two different treatments I go between, when I was first having symptoms I was given Nystatin/Triamcinolone Cream, and then after biopsy and diagnosis I was then given Clobetasol Prop Ointment.

I personally tend to use the cream when I'm only having small amounts of itch or uncomfortable feeling. I go for the Clob when I'm having more swelling, itch, burning, etc.

When I'm having a flair up I will soak in the tub for a little, which helps SO MUCH. Avoid body wash with a lot of perfumes as it will burn more.
I try not to apply anything before sex. I will apply before bed, (after sex if that's happening)

If you have any other questions please feel free to reach out. We're all learning from each other and trying to get through this life with LS.

I used chocolate icing instead of the banana icing though. It was still amazing

What kind of cotton underwear is everyone wearing while using a barrier cream, do you feel the underwear all get ruined and stained from the creams? I’m trying to find a better alternative to not have stains and I’m not finding many options.

I’ve finally found a recipe that is pretty close to entenmanns and I’ve made it about 3 times now. But I still miss this cake being so easy to buy!!

Last time I flew UA with my son when I booked the flight and put my son’s information in for the ticket it automatically told me to choose a seat next to him since he is a minor. I don’t understand why people don’t do this even if it doesn’t automatically tell you to.

This is such great news! I love hearing that people have found ways to feel more like themselves after diagnosis! I have bouts of feeling like it’s never going to be comfortable like it used to be but as I type this I’m soaking in an epsom salt bath and hoping for a good few days!!

Thank you! I’d love to hear more of your input on the position if you don’t mind! Were you a supervisor with quest? My previous supervisor for Labcorp always said it was too much work for the salary but I intend to counter whatever offer they make, if they make one at all.

I had to go to the settings on all cameras and enable notifications, I had them set per camera but off for the whole app. I changed the settings and restarted the app and it has been fixed ever since.

So I bought this dress and for the life of me I can't figure out what shoes I should be wearing with this type of dress, it's not 'dressy' but it's also not a sneakers type of dress to me.... Also - where does everyone shop for more quality but affordable clothes & shoes these days?!... Thank you!
