Hello,

My girlfriend is 5,3 and is a UK size 6 (US 2).
At the moment she is using a 32d bra but we both do not think this is correct.

We looked on the internet and it comes up as 32E/F. Is this correct? Her rib cage is 28/29 and he bust is 36.

How do you know what bra size is correct? Please advise.

Also any ideas where you can buy them like this (UK only)

Many thanks.

I am currently suffering a recurring Pilondial Sinus. The first was discovered in september last year and subsequently removed by incision and primary closure of the wound in january, resulting in a 4-5 inch scar between my butt cheeks. A second sinus is forming lower down (closer to my anus), and the scar from the initial surgery has started to breakdown.

Has anyone out there experienced similar problems with Pilonidal Sinus and how long did it last before you experienced no recurrances?
Serious Answers only please.

I have already switched to a dye and perfume free detergent, so that may rule that out as the cause of the skin irritation. Thanks.

I have constant sharp pain in the upper abdominal area that occurs randomly throughout the day. It so painful sometimes that I have to lie down, but it only last for a few seconds, and is often times followed by another and another. I do not see any relation to food except that it causes me to lose my appetite, or eat a little and feel full. I am very skinny (94-98 lbs, 5'5), and all my friends and family always ask if I have an eating disorder. I do not!!!!! I just can't explain my gradual loss of weight over this two-thee yr period. The pain continues today, and doctors have prescribed antacids but they are beginning to not work anymore. My appetite is being suppressed again and the pain came back. In addition to this, I have loss my period for over two years. I had menstruated at least two times before it stopped. My doctor says that this is normal, but I don't agree. I want an explanation for this pain and my cycle stopping and she treats me like a 10yr old with a tummy ache. Help

a good friend of mine was recently put in the hospital. she had a cold for about a week, severe headaches, and slept a lot. one day after staying up late taking care of our drunk roomie, she was walking down a steep hill and asked for help. a group of our friends helped her down the hill, but then she literally collapsed in pain. she said her entire body was in pain, and that she had a severe headache behind her eyes. she was in so much pain that she was crying. we called an ambulance and they took her to a hospital (in slovakia). she had an MRI, a catscan, and a full check up. they checked her appendix (nothing), her head (nothing), and anything else they could think of. she was feeling better, so she came back to my group of people, but then the next day (after a good day!) she collapsed again and we called another ambulance. she's in the hospital again, and no one knows what could be wrong with her... does anyone have any ideas? i'm not looking for a diagnosis, only ideas.
