I held off taking photos of me in the No Show Briefs for a while now. I started going to physical therapy and going for acupuncture treatments to help with the hip pain I have from severe bursitis caused by my rheumatoid arthritis. Don't feel sorry for me - it's not that bad. It hurts the most when I'm lying down trying to sleep. I could take pain pills, but I hate taking medicine. But my legs are bruised up.
This pair of No Show Briefs is my favorite. I used YSS from Zenith & Quasar and they are the most comfortable! There are several YSS prints on sale for 50% off right now.
At physical therapy, I get a lot of manipulative therapy. I'm told that the rheumatoid arthritis causes joint inflammation and Sjogren's causes a shortening of my muscles, ligaments, and tendons. The combination of the two results in bursitis which is inflammation of the bursae which are fluid filled sacs which cushion all those parts & pieces.
This pair of No Show Briefs is made with mesh from Zenith & Quasar. I've worn these a lot as this pair is super comfortable and feels so cool on. This mesh is on sale for $5 a yard!
So all that PT causes bruises all up and down my leg. When I go to acupuncture, they do cupping on my hips. Cupping is a round glass that they put a flame in then quickly put it against my skin. The heat causes a suction that draws my skin into the cup. It's left there for 30 minute. It feels so good, but it leaves me with round marks that often leave a bruise.
The No Show Briefs pattern is on sale for $5! It has options for different rises, full coverage or cheeky bum, optional waistband, and has an optional full belly adjustment in the pattern. This pattern also include the new extended sizing. These go together really quick and are a satisfying sew.
