Mojo

[Steelie]

Anybody lost their mojo ?

[Twinkle26]

Yes my get up and go has got up and gone.

I don't seem to be able to focus on one thing, not even a book, I'm on zero hours contract at work so back to job centre, what hope do I have of convincing a new employer.

Hi Twinkle26, you can get back to work . Before my transplant I was working up to twelve hours before my phone call. I was in a job of moving aircraft around so concentration was a big part of my job. I also went back to work after my transplant for 18 months doing the same work. I think you will find it's not a disability that stops you from working. I got told I am not classed as disabled so this should not be a problem with bosses. I hope you get a job.

Never lost it, it's part of the course of having PBC.

[Steelie]

I work 40 hrs + a week , no problem there I was actually talking about sex drive lol

[Twinkle26 in reply to Steelie]

Ha ha forgot about that a while back lol

[butterflyEi]

me too! but then hubby has been on hormone therapy for prostate cancer so that is both of us. Still like a little cuddle every now and then though

Next time you are at the Dr ask them to test your vitamin D levels, if you have PBC, you can have issues absorbing vitamin D. I was severely deficient and had to take a high dose course. It's helped in all sorts of ways including that department

[Steelie in reply to Suziebeau]

I'm already on vitamin d tablets

[Suziebeau in reply to Steelie]

Oysters then Seriously it's not unusual to have "peaks and troughs". Could be hormone related if you are a particular age?

[Steelie in reply to Suziebeau]

I'm 52 so yeah it could be

Hi that depends on medication. Many meds affect the mojo. Also i don't work because of pain. The only way i can get through a day of work is to take pain relief every for hours which is bad for the liver so now i don't work.

Mine comes and goes. Tried counselling??? I try and take each day as it comes and hope for the best

[Becca75]

yep...can't find mine anywhere lol

[Philippastcarin]

I've stoped eating bread potatoes rice pasta and generally lowered my carb intake, you wouldn't believe how much better my life has become. I do jobs on the house after my full time job and I'm loving it.

Might be worth a try.

Hi steelie...I wasn't sure whether you meant your mojo in life...but having read down a bit I see you mean sex mojo, lol!! I don't know about you, but I find if I'm feeling a bit down...which happens a lot lately my sex drive decreases. However, I've told my partner that if I'm feeling a bit low then just take the initiative and give me a good seeing to! I find it works for me...sometimes I'm not that interested, but after a while ahem...I seem to get more interested and it lifts my mood.

Try not to worry about not feeling horny...I think this is normal when we're dealing with this condition...hopefully it will pass!

Good luck

Hils xx
