I googled posttubal ligation syndrome and found this info...hope it helps.  I have heard some doctors refer to posttubal syndrome when talking about a patient's heavy menses after a TL...just something to think about.  I wasn't aware of this when I had mine 8 years ago, but boy believe me, if I had known, there's no way I would have had it done...

A study in Britain followed 374 posttubal patients and found that 43% had subsequent
gynecological treatment for such conditions as heavy menstrual bleeding, menstrual
disturbances requiring hormonal treatments, cervical erosion, ovarian tumors, and
recanalization of the fallopian tubes requiring a second operation.

Another British study of tubal ligation found a 40% increase in menstrual blood loss;
26% of the group experienced increased menstrual pain. Women who had used the Pill
before their tubal ligation reported more of these complaints than other patients.

I jumped the gun - and you already found it - Gibran's On Love.  I loved The Prophet back in the late 60s, early 70s.....especially on children...that begins something like this....but it's all I remember....(I can look this one up too) and made me a better parent in the 80s-90s...and right through today.......

They come through you, not from you.

Seizures are scary to witness, but sometimes I think they're worse on us than the dogs (unless of course they're having a prolonged, life-threatening seizure). 

With idiopathic epilepsy, I don't think the seizure causes them pain, and I seem to remember that a dog is more at risk of secondary injury (like falling and hitting their head, falling into a swimming pool, etc.) than from the actual seizure. 

I had a dog with idiopathic epilepsy.  She was a fiesty, gorgeous (okay, I'm biased!) dark red and white, blue-eyed Siberian Husky named "Cherokee."  I loved her, adored her, and pretty much catered to her every whim (and created a bit of a monster in the process, but I was happy to get to take care of her and spoil her in her old age).  She was funny, aloof, dignified, super smart, and, of course, mischievous.  Hubby and I still miss her terribly, and we still talk about her hilarious antics.  But I digress! 

She was 10-11 years old when I adopted her, and I got to have her for 5 years.  At first, she was only having a seizure about... twice a month.  We worked her up and decided to hold off on meds since the seizures were fairly infrequent.  But she pretty quickly started to have them more like... once a week, I think it was?  If I remember correctly, my vet said if they are having more than a certain number of seizures a week/month, it's best to but them on meds, so we put her on phenobarbital at that time, twice a day. 

The dose was a little too high at first, and it made her a little groggy and caused her to vomit.  We lowered the dose a bit, and she was fine - never had another seizure again.  Phenobarb is pretty inexpensive, but not w/o potential side effects to the liver.  At Cherokee's age, we didn't really worry about that, but maybe that's the reason your vet is taking a "wait and see" approach?  Your dog is young, so if she has to be on anti-seizure meds, it will likely be for the rest of her life.  Not that I'm trying to discourage you from meds, just saying maybe your vet is thinking about the side effects as a reason to maybe hold off as long as possible. 

I also have a Siberian Husky named Alexxa ("Alex" - sometimes pronouced "Owwhh-licks" ;o).  She's now 15 years old.  She started having seizures at about 1 year of age, but hers are very mild ("partial complex" I think they're called?)  She only has one about every 3 months or so, and all that happens is her head has a little tremor to it.  If you aren't looking right at her when it happens, you could be right next to her and not even know she's having a seizure.  She doesn't even seem to be aware anything is happening.  Vet said they might get worse over time, but they haven't, and she's never had to be on medicine for it. 

Epilepsy is hereditary in some breeds, but it can happend in any breed or mixed breed of dog.

Here are a couple paragraphs from this site:   http://www.asc-cockerspaniel.org/health/news03.asp

>>Epilepsy Treatment

If idiopathic epilepsy is diagnosed, a dog may be treated with anti-convulsant drugs such as phenobarbital or potassium (or sodium) bromide. Since neither of the drugs is without side effects, the veterinarian and owner might choose to wait until seizures become more frequent or prolonged before starting an epileptic dog on them.

Phenobarbital was more effective than bromide in eliminating and shortening the duration of seizures. Thus, for many dogs, phenobarbital may be the first choice for an anti-seizure medication. Though the study did not look at long-term effects of using either drug, phenobarbital can damage the liver with prolonged use. Also, phenobarbital more so than bromide interacts with many other drugs. For that reason, bromide might be a better first choice for older dogs or those on other drugs, Boothe says. >>

Sorry for the length of this.  (I simply must take any opportunity to talk about my dogs.  LOL)

I happened upon this after reading your post because I have a cyst on my cervix that has me wondering....  I found this forum, I don't know if it interests you, but I just thought I would put it across.  I wish you all the luck, and I'm sure you'll be fine with the medical technology we have today!  Take care and God Bless fellow MT. 

I was born in 1982 and was raised by my mom and FINALLY found my dad after years of searching. He lives in Houston. I don't want to just show up out of the blue and say dad, here I am. I have his address and phone number. Mom says that I shouldn't contact him, he walked out on her after I was born, but I want to know what he's like.

I guess he went to a lot of trouble to start a new life somewhere else, got remarried, had other kids. In all these years he hasn't made an effort to contact me, but I still want to meet him. I hear his wife doesn't want me around, but she can't stop me from seeing my dad. Still, I don't want to make any waves. What should I do.

Right click on the desktop, go to Properties. Go to the Settings tab, then the Advanced button and Video adapter tab. See if there's a "Rotation" setting. Some New video cards allow the display to be rotated to accommodate flat-panel monitors.

and another suggestion

Should your screen rotate on you try pushing: ctrl, alt, up arrow key. Push all 3 down at the same time.
