That's with an M, not an N !

Anyone else get this?

I got it when I started menopause, and still have it, twenty years later, it's driving me mad.

If you don't know, it's the sensation of having something crawling on you. I get it on my legs, I keep swiping at insects that aren't there.

:-(

Scozz I get that all the time...in my case it's the DT's :-D :-D

I wonder why ants got blamed for it rather than spiders (arachnication) or arthopods in general?

lol Kense......... the thought of ants is bad enough! If I thought I had spiders crawling on my legs I'd freak out :-0

DT's Allan? Are you sure it's not the male menopause? lol :-)

Be sure to let us know if you ever get pink elephants crawling up your legs.

Gee, Scozz, you know the symptons so well :-D

It gives new meaning to trunks :-D :-D

I think that the male menopause happened a few years ago, but it wasn't so much a pause as a permanent condition ;-)

I had it when I started the menopause and it is horrible but rarely get it now, stopped when I was on HRT.

Ann - when I started HRT the crawling beasties weren't so bad.

I've been off the HRT for a couple of years, but the beasties are back!

Allan ~ I must look in a local shop for a pressie for you. When my brother came for a visit he bought a sarong, which he "modelled" for us. A nice colourful sarong with elephants on it. Ofcourse, he had to twist it around so that the trunk was in the "right" place.

:-0

He,s me thinking it was something about bees :-D buzzing around :-D and of course Birds :-D

lol Scozz

Did your brother model it in the early evening...just a sarong at twilight? :-D :-D

Scozz - I assume you did not watch that programme earlier this evening on BBC2 entitled 'Nature's Weirdest events' - mainly dealing with creapy-crawlies by the trillion.

Thankfully, none in the UK to worry about.

Regretfully, none of the other posh words on this thread mean anything to me. I must look up their meaning sometime!

OH GOD IS THAT WHAT IVE GOT TO LOOK FORWARD TO IN THE NEXT FEW YRS.

THINK ILL SHOOT MYSELF NOW.

GOOD BYE CRUEL WORLD ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

Bye Suzanne, I'll remember our banter on various threads :-D

I get it on my arms - trouble is, it really is bl@ddy greenfly infesting me sofa :-0 :-0 :-0

Allan - I'm starting to worry about you lol

:-D

Only just starting, Scozz?

Others have been worrying ever since I first joined GR back in 2007 :-D :-D :-D

BYE Allan

ive really enjoyed the banter,maybe if you start another banter thread i might change my mind :-D

its all up to you :-D :-D :-D

No takers for my greenfly then? :-S

OK Island, I'll ask. Why are greenflies infesting your sofa?

Well I dunno Allan! I guess it's too cold outside for them :-S

Hmm! I wonder what sap they are feeding off? :-D :-D
