Message: <blockquote data-quote="ChocFish" data-source="post: 59480" data-attributes="member: 981">Hello Sue, first let me tell you that even if we could identify it would make no difference, even problems that may be embarrasing to you are being taken seriously by us all and everyone will be trying to suggest some ways to help you solve this problem; also thank you for being so brave and posting, it helps in many ways, its possible there is another diabetic in here or a newbie with a similar problem and hiding in fear and embarrassing and you may feel better because you got things off your chest.You have already been given really good advice here, so check all that out, although deodorants and body sprays and fabric conditioner help to mask any odour you need to get to the root of the cause so off to the doctor you go; have you changed your diet recently, what are you eating most days?Try to start drinking a glass of kefir every day, it might help because kefir promotes healthy bacteria, in any case are you drinking enough water (added sugar free flavouring syrups eg da vinci or sugarfree squash?), green tea or tulsi tea?When I first saw your post I thought there is some kind of witch hunt going on there, why are your colleagues running to HR to complain? Have they ever directly spoken to you about this problem? If any of my colleagues had a body odour oroblem I would ask them to come out with me for a coffee or something and gently broach the subjecft and offer to help you find a solution and definitely would support you, no way would I run off to the HR department. And if the HR department have told you about the complaints can they at least tell you more about the smeill, what kind etc? These people are less sensitive than a giant warthog in the way they seem to be dealing with this. you need support and encouragement, surely?What about your friends and family can you ask any of them if they have noticed and maybe havent said anything for fear of upsetting you? Try and find out.I do hope that you get the help you need, oh I just remembered one of my staff developed and odour, some years ago now, and it turned out that she forgot to remove a tampon before inserting a new one so the old tampon was being pushed up really high and she was not aware of that each time removing the lower tampon and then none as the period was finished, only a visit to the gynae solved that little misery.So you see you there are people in similar situations, I hope things are better for you very soon.Love and hugsKaren x</blockquote>
