Honey, not tonight

I find myself saying that to my significant other more than I thought I would at this point in my recovery. Internet, I know this is a sensitive subject so please bear with me OK?

It wasn’t until I was diagnosed with Cushing’s did I finally have an answer as to why I wasn’t in the mood to have sex E-V-E-R. I attributed it to being busy, being tired, being a full-time student, being a mom, being everything. I thought it was just me. But when I learned that having a low libido is a side effect from Cushing’s, I thought maybe it’s not me after all? All this time I felt like Austin Powers who lost her mo-jo.

I’ve made progress in some areas and my libido has picked up from time to time. Thing is, I’m still not feeling like my old self and it’s been nearly a year since I’ve had surgery.

I’d like to ask all of you out there, do you still suffer from low libido now that you’re in recovery from Cushing’s?
