Glad it worked for you!
I had those shots from the pain clinic before they put me on the narcotics, but they made me way worse. I will never ever have them again. I'm really glad they worked for you though. I tried all sorts of things before going to heavy duty pain meds, but nothing worked, and I wasn't functioning at all. I looked and felt like I was 80 or more even though I just turned 30. Now, I'm on a 50-mcg fentanyl patch with oxycodone 10 mg for breakthrough pain (along with other nonnarcotic meds) and occasionally using a TENS unit.
I still don't function at 100%, probably more like 60% to 70% on a good day, but at least that's better than where I was.
I hope the conservative measures continue to work for you, but if they don't, please don't let anyone tell you to learn to "live with it." I went through that for a few years, and trust me, it's no life.
Best of luck to you!
Glad it worked out well...sm
Hope your daughter is feeling okay...she's been through a lot for naught....You stood up as an advocate for your child and I applaude you!....You are your daughter's first teacher. Cat
I am so glad things worked out for you...
in the end! May I ask you if you had recently purchased anything through PayPal to bring this on? I am now considering closing my account but was just wondering if this was just something that happened out of the blue. Did you get a phishing E-mail and click into it? I actually just bought something last week off of ebay using my PayPal. Thanks for letting us know!
i'm glad things worked out well.
kids do a lot of growing and changing in elementary school years so who knows, this bully could turn out to be your daughter's bff after a break from each other. my son struggled with a bully in daycare before kindergarten. now they are in the same class and get along great. granted neither remember the problems of 5 years ago but at any rate, the other child grew out of it and they have become good friends. best of luck to your daughter! it sounds like she has a great role model. :)
yeah--$3 is not so bad. Glad you worked that out.

I am so glad my grandmother's remedy worked for you
I called her my little brown mole- she had a garden and in the summer had such a nice tan. She firmly believed in using the Camphopenique for most everything. I did not remember it being used for mouth sores but learned that within the past year from her daughter, my aunt, when I suffered the same. I glean so much information from my elders- you just cannot beat helpful hints from people who have lived longer than us and seem to know so much. I am glad it helped you!
Glad to hear it. If he's still having too many,
don't give up on him. There are other drugs, though phenobarb is a good one that they always try first.
Glad to hear you say that,
I saw the female being interviewed but people just the gun in saying racist when it happens here. More people leaving the north and heading south that Atlanta is probably the fastest growing city there is and the blacks are in the majority. The police was deathly ill, vomiting and had to go to the hospital - if you can tell me how being sickened by a hamburger got to being racist, please??
Glad to hear it sm
Three nice stories, so happy to hear something positive. I do keep my distance and try to keep my mouth shut and help when asked, do not jump in or go over without calling, etc. and mostly when invited only and I don't overstay. I only want what is best for my son and know if he's happy, I'm happy. I think those of us who have lived longer and know better, get the drill. I can't stand the way we MIL's are portrayed, I really have not seen one movie, TV show or article with something positive, it's like the old "wicked step mother" theme that sold books and movies for years. So happy to know there are some good MIL stories out there. It makes me feel better. Sometimes I just wonder whether I'm doing okay in that department or not, it's difficult, I wish they'd show both sides but they don't. Thanks for the positive input, I feel better. Sometimes we need a younger spin on things, times do change and I want to stay in my place and do the right thing without being a pain. I also do not want to be neglectful of their needs. I usually call and ask if they'd like a night out, because I know how important it is for a happy marriage. They usually jump at the chance. Guys don't talk about these things and I would never ask anyway if I'm doing okay as a MIL. It's a tough job to keep your nose clean. More, more - good news! Be happy, perhaps we can put a more positive spin on relationships.
Okay, glad to hear you have got it
all covered! Good luck at your new place.
Glad to hear that....
Are you an MTSO or QA? It's so difficult for MTs these days, Annie, so please bear with us.
We're told not to change anything, type what was dictated, even when it goes against every fiber of our being to let some of this stuff go. I have an ongoing internal struggle to not clean up every iota of poor grammar in a report. With ESLs, we may THINK we know what they meant to say, but we don't know that as a fact so we have to suck it up and leave it go as dictated.
I'm glad the MT in question wasn't zapped on the 'transferred' versus 'transfused.' As I said earlier, sounds like the clinician could very well be ESL, and I would not have tampered with it, either (and I've been doing this 22 years).
I hope she does rectify her other problems, for her sake and your sake :-)
Glad to hear it!
Blood clots can be serious, but now that they know what they're dealing with they can treat it. (My mother has similar problems and takes a rather large dose of Coumadin. She jokes that her blood is like motor oil. My dad, on the other hand, bleeds rather easily so I don't know what side of the fence I'll land on!)
I think you should talk to your doctor about your concerns about the birth control pills.
I'm so glad to hear it. I knew you had it in ya'!
That is so great!!! Glad to hear!! nm

Glad to hear from another nonprude!
I enjoyed your posting, thanks for joining in.
Glad to hear from all the lonely sm
I am older and find that after years of holding back on personal information re. all in the community, I had to be careful about what I said or asking someone how they were, as I wasn't supposed to know they had cancer, etc. This further alienated me from some people I would purposely avoid getting into a conversation with. At any rate the "jealousy" factor also came into play from those not bright enough to "work" and the only thing they had to do was the annual bazaar, etc., which is fine but if I arrived on the scene and offered to help, I was actually ostracized as not being "one of the girls." I gave up on it all, don't even go to church anymore. I miss it because I believe in mind, body and spirit. Somehow the only spirituality and happiness I find are within my own home with beautiful CD's and private prayer, etc., I don't even want to try to get close to these "beaches." No one understands what we do, if I say "medical transcription" they say, "WHAT?" They don't have a clue. Glad I'm not alone. I was actually told, "Well, my house is a 'home' and I am a homemaker. I did both and my kids are healthy, happy and do very well despite the fact that their mom was a "working" mom. Geez, Louise! I also got told, "Oh, you work, so you can just bring soda and chips." I also bake, cook and sew!
Oh I am so glad to hear there is a shelter...sm
that does give pits a chance. I love em. I love all dogs.
Glad to hear the worst is over!
Thanks for posting an update. I did wonder what the outcome had been and hoped you were doing better.
I hope the other stone doesn't present a problem if/when it passes. It sounds like it's small enough that it may not be too much trouble. Keep some drugs on hand, just in case!
Glad you're back.
So glad to hear that! They are scary to watch! nm

So glad to hear Shasha is a rescue....
i have a special place in my heart and life for rescues and feel the need to speak out on their behalf. if dh passed by them all, then this must be the dog for your family.
good luck with whomever you choose...your dogs are very lucky to be part of your household.
I'm glad to hear your surgery went well. I had a vaginal...
hysterectomy about 3 years ago and I think it took about 6 months before the hot flashes started. Best of luck to you.
Glad to hear the good news -sm
Thanks for the update. That is good news! You have eased my mind about having it done, and I hope to do it real real soon. I know I've put it off long enough. Your messages have been so encouraging and much appreciated. I'll keep watching in case you post any more good news. ;-)
Glad to hear you finally got your money. Please also...sm
post a message on Clark Howard's website under Bad Customer Service as well as file a negative report against them with the Better Business Bureau if they're a member with them. The latter rarely does anything but at least you can file a complaint and let them know that these folks were scoundrels.
Glad to hear you're okay Hayseed
and hanging in there...Missed your wit and smiling face around here!
Glad to hear the good news! Now.......

Glad to hear your tests turned out good..
I wonder if some people are more susceptible to cysts than others? Have you had anymore cysts?
I have one on my head (hidden under hair), a lipoma on my forearm (need to get it x-rayed though as it has been driving me crazy lately) and an ovarian cyst (My GYN left it in place just in case it was helping the pregnancy). I found out about the ovarian cyst when I was pregnant for my twins. They were actually triplets at first (with one growing in the tube) so at 6 weeks, we had to have surgery. I was heartbroken to lose a baby but feel so blessed and lucky that the other 2 made it and have done well since. They are now 2 strong, active little boys and were 1 day from being full-term :)
glad to hear this; t.v. hosts/reporters are ignorant; I would have told her so, on natl t.v.

Agreed! Hear, hear...amen, sister!

Did not hear about the porn but did hear
there might be a conflict about her babies going home with her when they were able to be dismissed. You can hardly blame anyone for questioning how she will take care of them. From what I have seen, she hardly seems stable enough to do that.
5-HTP worked much better for me.

It worked!
I'm not as dumb as I look.
It worked!

Here is what I did and it worked.
When accidents occurred indoors, I never scolded unless I saw the crime. I would take the paper towel that I used to clean it up and go to the area in the yard where I wanted him to "go." After a week or two, the area was marked with the scent and the dog, when outside, concluded that was his area to go potty. Soon enough, he chose that area to do his business.
When I did catch him, I took him directly to the area in the yard which was the potty.
They catch on eventually. Be consistent and don't scare him.
What worked for me -
I lost 20 pounds doing low carb 4 years ago and have kept it off by watching refined carbs. I have always exercised and continue to do so. I like *Yourself Fitness* because the workout is different every single time. Best of luck!
It worked!
He looks like a sweet cat my in-laws once had when I first married their son. He was left outside, was intact, flea-ridden and battle-scarred but a sweet boy. Loved to have his head scritched. He lived a long time for an outdoor cat.
It worked for me.
I learned something also. I did not know that the more you weigh, the more calories you burn doing the same thing, interesting. Thanks.
Thank you T...My DH worked his way...
up to six figures (yes, the low end). You are right when you say some people think that is a lot of money when sometimes it is just enough to get by on for some people. We are fortunate and have made it a point to be debt free. We will not be a slave to the lender, working only to make payments on meaningless things. There is no reason for the catty remarks and jealousy. Some women are just bitter about life, and if that is the case figure out how to make it better. Life is too short to be unhappy.
What we did, which worked -sm
Same story here, except sometimes the dog would actually get out from under the fence and commence to follow us around our yard and bark when our neighbors were not home. My husband finally went over there one night to ask them if there was any way at all they could stop their dog from barking nonstop. They said they knew it barked and were very sorry it was bothering us. It stopped for about 6 months and then began happening again. Hubby then wrote a short note and placed it next to their mailbox, all the time stating we wanted to remain good neighbors with them but would very much like to be able to enjoy our own yard without hearing their huge dog barking all the time. It never happened again after that, going on 2 years now. No problems at all with them. Sometimes, it seems, people are very clueless or careless until you mention it to them. Try saying something in person. You may be surprised in a good way. Best of luck!
What worked for me
Tempting though it is, you don't want to reward timid or frightened behavior by giving affection then.

When I have detected nervous energy in any of my dogs during storms, I just started playing a favorite game of theirs to distract them. The noisier and more rambunctious the game, the better. The breeds I've had are not particularly sensitive to noise, I admit, but I learned with Sasha that all I had to do was play growly bump (her own game she taught me) to take her mind right off a storm.
If this worked then....(sm)

What has worked for me - sm
Hey, I literally feel your pain! Sometimes it feels as if I am sitting on a huge nail on my right buttock. Look up stetches online for sciatica. Like others have said, it really does help. I also get chiro adjustments and get a sports massage every other week, so I can continue to sit in my chair. Hope you find some relief!

less expensive places gave the food they were going to throw out to employees, however the expensive place I worked at was 20% discount only.
What has worked for both me and my husband...
Lower your carbs starting NOW. Eat plenty of protein, along with a little fat at each meal, to keep you full. Do not drink your calories. Stay away from ALL refined carbs until you get where you want to be and then really keep them low because most of them are plain old not good for you anyway. Never allow yourself to feel *starving* because your body goes into a mode where it holds onto fat and the amount of calories you burn really drops down. Also, you have GOT to exercise, no way around that. Get moving EVERY single day, no excuses. Following these rules has allowed me to keep off the 20 pounds I had put on from never moving out of my chair (typing ALL day) over 5 years ago. Just had my blood work done and it is EXCELLENT. Good luck to you! :-)
What has worked with my hubby -
Men want to be fed. They want REAL food. To them, that means meat. I take hubby to Longhorn that night, he orders a big steak, potato, veggies, salad, etc. I also buy him some silk boxers with hearts on them and, well, you can guess the rest! He usually gets me candy and flowers, but he is always very surprised and happy when I do things for him this day. Good luck! :-)
Actually, I worked for a PC company
a long time ago supervising the commercial aspect. They always tell you that, but they can and do die in walls. We were sent out many times to cut them out after people insisted on using poison.
The best advice that I can offer is that once you get rid of them, you seal off any areas where they can get back in. If you don't do that, then you will continue to have problems.
Now rats instead of mice, I don't know what to tell you to do if they are eating through the walls!
Me personally though, I had a rat as a pet. In fact, we had to put her to sleep about a month ago.
The foil worked! Thank you so much! nm

When I worked as a nurse (sm)
There was this CNA who would open up the windows every time someone would die. I thought she was kooky (for many reasons), but she said it was to release the spirit of the person.
I'm not superstitious, but I won't eat beans more than 3 days in a row.
