Talking have to hurry and do this b4 my BF gets here!

OK, it's just this:

I heard on CNN some Dr talking about how the brain is most stimulated by the hands - your tactile senses fire the most neurons in your brain, and you have more nerves in your hands than (anywhere?) else.

With us TOSsers, we are losing/have lost a great deal of feeling in our hands... thus the brain is being stimulated less and less. Not good for the brain. I find myself unconciously rubbing my hands on 'textures' to try to 'feel' anything.

I think not having to exert myself physically (no bad ergonomics) combined with (content deleted at the request of mods), got my nervous system awakened in a good way and the results lasted a good 2-3 days!! YEAY!

Any thoughts on this?? I'm all ears.

Anne

I wrote it because I was hoping I could help someone and someone could help me. I guess that is not possible here.

Red face a good man is hard to find.

Endorphans... yeah Jo. I wonder if this is different from what the SCS does? Dr.A has said the SCS is my last option for pain control and I am not keen on the idea. I'm encouraged that Beth has had good results so far... I'll wait a few more years and then see how they still function. (content deleted at the request of mods)

Default I am so proud of all of us!!

Hi all,

I am so glad that we are able to discuss all of this VERY improtant information. I find that with me forplay is everything and I just lie in my most comfortable position until...... and if I can go on my back I do if not spooning amazing and it works for all go on whatever side is more comfortable. If I do go on top I use my head and shoulders on the wall bed head at wall and that works well no arm use and head ok just for a little balance my guy does all the work. I just go myself a new battery....... and from LINK REMOVED AS PER MODERATOR INSTRUCTIONS PLS EMAIL ME IF YOU WANT IT..........VICTORIA........... yes is Canadian....but free shipping if you give a report on your purchase. I hope this helps some....oh my little green friend is called the worm. Also little pocket rocket requires no effort on the arm side of things.....so warm up then get your guy or get him to do the job.

Pain decreases incredibly....as well as crabbyness when this happens......it makes a huge difference in life and how happy you are .....your brain is wired for it!!!!!!! I don't wish to offend and we all keep saying this but I think that we are honest and not being dirty......as none of this ever is it is just "taboo" well not in my world we are all se&8al beings and need it!!!!! So we need to find ways to help each other get to the right palce and comfortably. I am all for this discussion.....seen as I started it and it seems to have sparked a huge need for this discussion........I hope we can keep this up and help each other with our problems.

I know that we will not be able fix all the probs....but we can suggest and help in small ways.

anyone heard of the frog.....in legs are in ok shape an probably we are all ok in this respect in one way or another....it is like doing push ups with your legs on top. I can't do it for long.....but guy takes over then I do give n take on both sides....and yes "thank God for good men"

I Always support my neck with my buckwheat pillow (my best friend on earth....aside from my green friend the worm....lol)

my guy the doctor tells me stimulation is all in the brain not the hands....yes there are many nerve endings in your hands....but think of how many are in your lips or your face.......your lips can tell if nailpolish is dry!!!!!! ok so now that is a huge issue if your brain is not in the game and your head is only on pain then that is all u will think of and you will never get to the (and I quote from Anne so astutley put ) "Pleasureland" love it!!! So you have to have your head in it!!!!!!!!!

Oh and why can we not be in a comfortable position and stay there and let our wonderful men please us as they will...... no pun intended with that smiley.........let your mind and all else go and lie there and ENJOY!!!!!! YOu have to let yourself do it.......be free to enjoy the sensations......despite the time it takes due to the muscle relaxants.....time is always my issue.....anyhow hope this helps some and lets keep this going guys love the open honest conversation with you all....who else can we discuss this with without an argument (our guys???not always...)

love to all
Victoria

thanks guys!!!!!!!

we probably need to be careful about links that we put for certain kinds of things/products.
Maybe send via PM.
