Thank you for those gorgeous pictures. Is there anything in the world more wonderful than the animals we live with, learn from and love? I can go to bed now with a smile.

Thanks so much. just ordered some--nm

I almost ordered one of those
until seeing your post, it is the only reference I have seen about the Eden Pure. What went wrong with it? Could it have just been a bad one? Kinda curious. Could it be you are in an exceptionally cold area while I am on the coast where it would not have to work so hard?
I ordered the DVD and the book.
I have been applying The Secret for about 2 or maybe a little more weeks now. Also my husband and grown son are using it. We are all experiencing interesting results. I am using it to lose weight and so far have lost several pounds without dieting. My son worked on 5000 dollars and last week received 1000 and then got another 4000. My husband is using it for more energy.
Yep, ordered to court but you might be ok
the only exempt 1 today was a new owner and he had just had lawn put down- but having said that- you are only allowed maybe a month and then after that a homeowner on same restrictions as others so don’t know how much it could get roots and grow by them. We have sprinkler system but I try not to use if I can, just too expense and I am cheap!
Unfortunately, I am court ordered to do it
..
Just ordered his phone!
My dad is the same with regards to modern technology. He does not even own a computer and I think he believes the "internet" is some entity that is not to be trusted LOL He still actually drives to his bank to take care of any business! Maybe your mom and my dad can hook up
I ordered from the website, and when I called in my
order I expressed that I, too, thought it a bit pricey, and she told me that they were having an after Christmas sale, so she told me to check back with them, and she also said they will be adding new designs. She didn't say how much everything would be discounted, but I'll check back. The pieces are so pretty!
Thanks. I just ordered the salt and the baconaise
I think, if the Baconaise is good, DH will be happy. He can have BLTs again. That's his favorite sandwich.
anyone ordered prescriptions from Canada?
I'm on Benicar, Restasis eye drops, and Celebrex and found out the group insurance offered by my new company has $5000 deductible and doesn't cover drugs. I bought BCBS on my own and there is an extreme limit on brand name drugs. I'm thinking about ordering from Canada but wondered if anyone else has done that. They advertise 180 Celebrex for $97 and BCBS will charge $180 for only 30.
I did the same thing, ordered a TVon line- sm
on Thanksgiving Day and went at my leisure yesterday morning and picked it up in the store (was only a 24" so manageable)--cheaper to pick it up than have it shipped. That was my B-day present to myself with my B-day money, ended up costing us only $50 plus gas to get it (about $8). Still was able to hit Sears early enough though and get my DH some good deals (50% off) on tools; he's a happy camper about that. Those that go out at 5 a.m. I think are nuts. I've always just gotten up at normal time and be out the door by 8, all the early bird specials are usually good until 11 or 12 as it is. Happy shopping!
The noncustodial parent needs to get court-ordered...
visitation, which the custodial parent will have to abide by.
Turned out to be Domino's pizza - which I ordered
I tell you, it's a tough world!
I just ordered Bare Minerals makeup.
I've got very uneven skin tones, red blotches, etc. and hope this will help. The money back guarantee sounded good. I see Cover Girl, Maybelline and others are now using the same concept. Any info, thoughts or suggestions? TIA
"trees" are up. I have 2. Ordered one this year for our master bedroom and sm
it is huge!! We have vaulted ceilings. Then we have our 7.5 in our living room. The one in our bedroom is near the fireplace and has very nice collectable ornaments and the other tree has just memorable ones, ornaments kids made, etc.
But my favorite decoration this year is a topiary that I made. I wish I could take a picture. I love it! I just made it up with leftover things I already had. It is gorgeous. Sits on my dining room table as a centerpiece. Having a huge Christmas party tomorrow night.
Most places guarantee delivery by the 24th if ordered by the 22nd. EAsy.

My doctor said NO WAY
I asked about this for my 15-year-old daughter since it's hyped to be so great. He told me unless she is sexually active and at risk for STDs, he would NOT advise it. He said it is not needed routinely unless the girl has "at risk" behavior and they are not including this in the information about the medicine because that wouldn't be "politically correct." Also, it is not to be given after age 17.
My doctor says....sm
that as long as your periods are staying regular and the way they've always been then you're not "too old" to conceive. As far as the risks go, if you do research you'll see that it's more and more common for women in their 30-40s to have babies without problems. For the Down's Syndrome risk, if you average the # of women having babies at different ages the risks are the same across the board. My OB/GYN gave us this info and we confirmed it by doing research.
See your doctor please.
It doesn't pay to put it off. Whatever it is may need rest. Hope you don't need surgery. Not at all sure if it's carpal tunnel or what, but that's the doc's job.
my doctor put me on
Prempro. Makes me happy and I sleep well.
Definitely go to the doctor
You can't tell if it's broken without x-raying it, and even if it isn't broken, sometimes injuries to tendons and ligaments can take even longer to heal than a fracture. But first you have to find out exactly what is wrong. Then your doctor can determine how it needs to be treated.
umm not a doctor - go see one...
My advice is to go see a doctor.......hope you feel better soon!
Definitely see your doctor - and
Try alternating the foot you use on the foot pedal. It is hard to get used to at first, but it can be done. It's not good to hold one leg in the same position for such long periods of time.
You have to go to the doctor - right away! (sm)
You could have pancreatitis or some type of hepatitis or a number of other things. You need to go right away. You are like me - I always try to figure it out before I go - but if the pain is that bad, you need to go ASAP!
Just took my son to the doctor and
My son went to a hands-on medical conference for high schoolers this summer. I took him to the dermatologist this morning and we saw a PA that we had never seen before. In the car my son listed all the things the PA did wrong. He never introduced himself, after he gave his plan on what to do he did not ask us to repeat it back to him to make sure we understood exactly what he wanted us to do, and he did not end with "Do you have any questions?". He was almost out the door before I could mention a mole that we wanted him to look at on my son. We then went to the hospital for bloodwork and on check-in the we were asked the doctor's name becuase she couldn't read his signature and I had to say I didn't know. Too Funny!!!
Get a new doctor.
If I were you I would definitely find a new doctor. Going through menopause doesn't mean that all of your problems will be solved. I had my hysterectomy over 7 years ago and it was the best thing I ever could have done for myself. Six months later my doctor did my sister. We both had adenomyosis.
He definitely should see a doctor.
I agree with the above poster. It could be some sort of psychological disorder that is somehow being exacerbated or could be new. He really should get checked out by a doctor to get an idea of what is going on. He may need medication. Good luck!
She needs to go to the doctor now (sm)
Earaches are very painful and if her eardrum ruptures she could have hearing loss. You need to get her to the doc and get antibiotics today, not tomorrow. I had them as a child - they are horrendous!!
Maybe she had a doctor's
appointment too and needed a pair undies.....so she took yours. What a shame, 15 years with you..consider yourself lucky she has taken such meaningless things!! You should be ashamed of yourself to react in such a way. It's ONLY a pair of underwear and I am sure they are not 24 carat gold!!
As an MT seeing a doctor
Can anyone offer me some advice? I've had stomach problems ever since I had my gallbladder out. First doctor said I was too young to have anything wrong (was 29 then), it was probably just stress resulting in acid reflux and IBS. But nothing worked. Got 2 doctors telling outright falsehoods because I'm an MT and let's face it folks, we are in the health care field. I finally gave up entirely after about 6 doctors. Actually told one that I was fed up and frustrated and said I work as an MT do you know what that means? He said, yeah it means you know too much about medicine. EXCUSE ME???!!!! Can anyone offer some advice as to how to handle doctors given that the ones I've seen seem to have no respect for our knowledge as MTs? And if anyone is in the Daytona Beach area, can you suggest a PCP?
No, ask your doctor.
It's a proven medical fact that most people on Depo gain weight. It's hormonal. If you didn't that's great, but that doesn't give you the right to judge the people who did. All hormone-altering meds have the potential to make you gain weight, and Depo is one of the worst. It has some great benefits, but bottom line is MANY, MANY people gain weight while on it.
You may want to see a doctor if you
haven't already. I had tinea versicolor many years ago. My experience was that I noticed the pigment of my skin was changing - having the usual color with sort of white spots all over. The doctor told me it is a fungal infection. I never had problems with irritation, burning or itching, just the loss of pigment. He gave me a body wash that I had to use 3 X a week. You apply it to the body and then wait for 20 minutes and then take a shower. It took close to a year to get rid of it. Although I am not a doctor, it doesn't sound like tinea versicolor but more like an allergic reaction to the wire of the bra. I would see a doctor to find out exactly what it is.
your doctor
Sounds like a schmuck. I hate it when a mean doctor bullies me and makes me cry. Go to free clinic. They don't have time to mess with your head and it will be "just the facts" and they will shove you out the door if nothing is wrong with you.
Sounds like this guy is bored.
What doctor does DH need to see?
For quite a while he has been having trouble with his left eye. He says every morning between the 9-10:00, his left eye gets "wavy". If he closes his left eye, he can see perfectly. If he closes his right eye, he can see perfectly, but if he has both open, the left eye is "wavy".
The other day when it happened, he said it was worse. He could barely see at all at of that eye, like someone dropped a cloth in front of his eye.
He saw his cardiologist and the cardiologist said to see his ophthalmologist. He went to the ophthalmologist and the ophthalmologist said to see his cardiologist, that it wasn't an eye problem. He said it could be low blood pressure (he's on Toprol), but DH is always sitting in his truck when this happens, not standing up suddenly or doing anything else that would cause a sudden low blood pressure.
Now, here's the really funny thing: He's allowed to have 2 beers a day. The other day, he had 8(!!!) because he was celebrating not having to pay the IRS for the first time since 2006. The next day, no problem with his eye!
It's really weird and we're both at a loss as to who to see or what to do. Any ideas?
doctor to see
I have a very good friend who is (was) on Coumadin. She had bleeding behind the eye and sometimes laser helps. However, her cardiologist took her off the Coumadin. He told her he would rather she have a stroke than go blind. (Don't mean to scare you, just the facts). I would see the best ophthalmologist I could find. There are even neurologic ophthalmologists and probably other specialties as well. Good luck.
P.S. The doctor did take me over to look
x
Jerk doctor
Even with the shot you can still get chickenpox. Hopefully he gets through it okay without any complications. *hugs*
Doctor funny
Just thought Id share this:
Doctor said patient had no basil crackers in the lungs! I hope not, could set up a good infection!
Ortho doctor
 I spent two years of my MT life typing for ortho doctors and I have never typed a letter like that. I would call the doctor, as the other MT suggested, and see where the conversation takes you! Good luck!
Just went to the doctor, trying to work and
so severe yesterday I could hardly stand. For anyone out there who thinks this is all in your head, believe me I never knew I had it until a rheumatologist tried to run their fingers up my spine when I left the table. The PA tells me they are using ole timey antidepressants to treat this now, not that you have depression but they found it seems to work good for this and also some antiinflammatories. What is bad is you cannot really get a big hug because just a touch on my arm by the office this morning made me recoil. I have 2 antidepressants, if 1 does not work good enough they said to try the other. I was in pure agony last night, even a class A narcotic would not alleviate this pain, goes all the way through from skin to the bone. I hope this gives some relief.
Your doctor says this, but you are the parent
and you are going on the theory that she will not become sexually active nor show up with sexually transmitted diseases up to the age of 17. That is your responsibility, not the physicians to choose or not. There are a lot of girls sexually active way before 17 What makes you think your daughter is different?
Definitely check with an OB doctor
I am 39 now and can not imagine having a baby, my kids are 16 and 14. But if you are in good shape and this is what you want then go for it. By having a healthy lifestyle more people are living longer and many women are having babies in their early 40s.
Doctor says to lawyer
We were born on the same year, month, day, and minute. We were born in the same hospital, hospital room and we have the same 2 parents. We are not twins and we have no brothers. Explain this.
Doctor says: You have a rash.
Well, duh!!!!
The doctor has no idea what is causing the horribly itchy red welts and bumps my husband has. We've established that they aren't caused by bedbugs, but other than that, no clue. So the doc gave him a steroid shot and a prescription for prednisone and told him not to do yard work for a week.
That's great if it helps clear up this episode, but if we can't figure out what is causing it, how can we prevent it from happening again??
So back to square one....
I would contact you doctor.
.
Definitely contact your doctor sm
You didn't mention where on your back the mole was, but particularly if it was on your upper back near your neck, I would be concerned about the swollen and tender lymph nodes.
Regardless, you need to talk to your doctor. The lymph nodes could even be a completely separate issue, but it is definitely a sign that there is a problem.
Good luck!
Doctor's appointment soon
I have a doctor's appointment in the middle of June. I'm going to try to deal with this until then. I tried looking up anxiety on the internet but they way they describe it didn't seem to fit. I hate asking for another pill to take. I have way too many now. But, if it takes away this feeling, I'll do about anything. Thanks.
I haven't ever met my doctor!
I've had her for 5+ years now and have no clue what she even looks like! No matter where I've lived, I always ask to see the NP, but that's my choice. I personally prefer seeing NPs, as I think they spend a lot more time with the patient and aren't as harried. Plus, she's a fatty and I don't feel so bad about myself when I see her and I'm all nudie-toonie! How bad is that?!
Call your doctor
And keep monitoring your BP. If you have trouble getting through to someone at your doctor's office, call your pharmacist. A lot of times they are more knowledgeable about drug interactions that doctors are.
I'm sure you'll be fine, but you need to check it out.
If this was the case, then the doctor
should have had something like this posted in the office. One would think. I think $100.00 is a little high for a missed appointment anyway. The standard is $25.00, but most offices have it clearly posted if that is the case. Good luck! Give 'em h-e-l-l------!!!!!!
I am glad you are going to the doctor
today and hope he or she will put your mind at ease. I am sure you will be fine. I hope it is not cancer. Good Luck and be strong. I know this is scary, but better to have it checked out. My thoughts are with you.
My doctor referred me to
a behaviorist type psychologist who offered biofeedback training. It was great for me. I had no idea what my muscles were doing to me.
