What is your best and your worst

[NoMercy]

feature?

My best is my eyelashes (I never need mascara!) and my worst is my height (5'3/4")

[dot.hawkes]

my best might be my complexion and my worst is my feet i think, my feet suffer because of my job and my thyroid.

[NoMercy]

Do you have hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism?

[pinktwink]

my best well I guess all of me lol my worst my teeth

[NoMercy]

What's wrong with your teeth, aprilis? I have never had a filling, and yet I have really sensitive teeth! Weird.

[pinktwink]

i'm pinktwink no mercy!!!! teeth a long story had a bad acccident left spitting out teeth so have ghad a lot of work done

[Buenchico]

I'm told that my almost permanent smile is my best feature. (However, when I used to work in a customer services job, some people seemed to think that I wasn't taking their complaints seriously - you can't win!).

My worst (physical) feature? I seem to have been plagued with acne and/or folliculitis, on and off, since my teenage years. So I suppose (at some times, at least) my facial skin might count.

[Mamyalynne]

I have super legs and zero cellulite (much to my grown up daughters annoyance) my worst is my teeth they dont look bad but have receding gums and teethare on the run LOL

[NoMercy]

Oops - sorry pink! My concentration levels have been cr@p the last couple of weeks, and I'm totally doped up on ibuprofen and other painkillers! lol

Buenchico - isn't folliculitis some sort of fungal infection of the hair follicle?

Mamy - count yourself lucky. There are many people that would kill for great legs.

[dot.hawkes]

I have an underactive thyroid diagnosed in 1987 and it has lots of symptoms, i have discoid lupus aswell but that is in remission

[Buenchico]

NM:
Folliculitis looks very similar to acne but its origins are bacterial, rather than viral. (It's still a b�gger to get rid of. You think you've done it, and then it comes back again)

[SLINKYKATE]

dot i had an overactive thyroid as well but it mysteriously disappeared after about 4 years,i get blood tests every year this year they're not to happy and sent me another letter to get tested again,if it does come back it always comes back the opposite of what it was the first time

[NoMercy]

I suppose you'd feel the cold with that dot!

Buenchico - I always thought it was fungal, hence the reason they tell you not to share towels with anyone else. Do they prescribe any steroid creams for topical use?

[MWB]

Best feature, I've been told is my eyes.

I like my height, 5ft 8.

Worst? My fingernails & cuticles.

[NoMercy]

Slinky - did you ever have to take Radioactive Iodine to slow down your thyroid?

[MWB]

I took the radioactive iodine a few years ago. No worrys since then.

[NoMercy]

MWB - they say eyes are the windows to the soul! All my family are dark haired with dark eyes. I watched Star Trek for the very first time tonight, and that Deanna Troi looks spookily like my mother did ten years or so ago.

[Ice.Maiden]

Best - legs and hair, probably. Worst - my nails. I don't bite them but they chip, so I keep them fairly short.

[MWB]

Wow, nomercy. Deanna is a beautiful woman!

Which means your family must be very attractive.

[NoMercy]

I tell you what, MWB, that could have been my mother on the telly. Even me old mucker pointed out her mannerisms were spookily similar to my mother's.

[Ice.Maiden]

That's lovely NoMercy. My own mum's a very young-looking and elegant woman, and still has the same waist measurement as she did when she got married - after 6 children!!
