As my allergies have gotten worse over the years, I have been pulling up the carpet throughout my house and yuck, nasty! I would love to put wood floors throughout, but cannot afford it. In the fall, my sinuses are even worse. I can't dust or vacuum, make the kids or DH do it.
To get rid of the drainage, you have to dry up your sinuses. I personally use Zyrtec and it works very well for me. I also have a personal steamer that I use a few times a day to try and steam things out. I've heard of the neti pot (not sure if that is spelled right) and that is supposed to work really, really good.
I keep a few peppermints with me in case I'm in public and the nausea gets too bad, it helps dry things up for a few minutes at least.
Good luck!

I've had this happen before and it is usually
when there is fluid behind my eardrum. Usually no cold associated with it. It sounds like a bee buzzing in my ear.
Thanks for the info. I've had this happen before, (SM)
but only VERY occasionally, like maybe once in a year, twice in a very unusual year. My cholesterol was a bit high on phys. exam in Dec., so I've been trying to cut back on sweets. Not easy, since I tend to 'need' them when I get stressed while working. But lately I've been lot better about it.
Also, last night, in addition to having chicken & swiss cheese when I got home, I also had a 'Sweet & Salty' peanut granola bar, which helped. Does that have carbs? Usually the thing that works best for me is a banana or a cheeseburger, but neither was handy last night.
Now here's another possible factor: I think I was a little dehydrated, too. Although I'd had lunch (mainly Rice-A-Roni) before I left, I don't think I drank much liquid with lunch. I also didn't think to bring a water bottle with me, like I usually do. I had a similar experience of dehydration one day while skiing. With a big breakfast, I'd only had 1/2 a glass of orange juice before we left. By midday, I felt tired & couldn't keep up with my sister, so told her to go have fun, and I went down to the lodge and had a super-sized diet Coke with lots of ice, and felt immediately fine then. (Now I always carry a CamelBak hydration system with me when I ski.)
Although I didn't FEEL thirsty last night, after I got home, had eaten something, rested, and taken a shower, for the rest of the evening I was REALLY thirsty! (Possibly because of all that sweating?) I drank a couple swallows of what was left of a Coke in the fridge, then a glass of orange juice, and then several cups of 'Arizona' diet green tea with ginseng. Went to bed still feeling thirsty, and slept through the night without getting up about halfway through the night to pee. (Usually I do have to get up once.)
But I woke up this morning feeling 100% fine, had usual breakfast of oatmeal, yogurt and coffee, and now am normal. Does getting a little dehydrated worsen a 'low-blood-sugar-attack'?
i've had similar things happen before
and it ticked me off, like you said, felt sorry for the kid, but hey, parents who do this take advantage of others and I would never do this to someone else.. also, I never liked it when kids just invited themselves over either.. I would never let mine do that. I felt like if they wanted them over the parents would call and ask, or if kids called, I would ALWAYS talk to the parents first.. just plain old rude to do that in my opinion..
My son had this happen to him, as well--sm
and he did report it to the bank. however, he only got half of his money back (I don't know why) even though the woman who stole his cc# was caught. I had the same bank as he did and apparently they told him they would only reimburse half of the charges. To this day, he will not buy items on line.
me too but I don't think that's going to happen...sm
GOP-democratic ongoing battle will make it political, but if WE can resist all that.....it would be good.
Just as an aside, us older MTs...are really going to be the largest senior group ever.......in the USA - something like 70+ million - and we, politically, are a HUGE voice (in numbers)....so I still believe WE CAN change the world.......that we CAN make the difference.
just as I believed 40 years ago too.......
perhaps I'm deluded.....*winks*
sure hope not......
p.s. please don't burst my bubble....
Did this happen already?
I'm watching CNN and they haven't mentioned it. They just have a message up saying that Judge to decide if Paris Hilton goes back to jail. She isn't even at the courthouse yet. The Sheriff are picking her up at her house. I definitely think she needs to go back to jail no question about it.
Happen to be in
or is this something happening all over Indiana, thanks to our MITCH????
He does not ALLOW it to happen...
We are humans, with minds of our own, allowed to make choices. We're not puppets on a string being guided around. Come on now, you can't be that unschooled in the Bible.It's unfortunate that bad things and abuse and so forth happens in this world, but it does...and it's because there are so many nonbelievers and so much evil...God wants us to come to Him. He's not going to force Himself on anyone.
Having same happen to me
Gosh I love these fuzzies but shocked every time I pet them, etc. but that is just the tip of the iceberg- getting shocked from clothing, coats, blankets, etc. etc. Does anyone have a good idea how to stop some of this- and no, I will not get rid of the fuzzies.
You could have this happen to you sm
where you disconnected from someone because of something petty (shower) and then when you really had time to look back on it and put it into perspective, along with putting yourself in her situation, you realize that you miss your friend and try to reconnect.
When you do, you find out she actually died a year before. Think about that before you make a decision to end the friendship. I wish I had.
I can see how it could happen
Years ago, I went for an upper GI. The tech came in right before the test to ask if I had done the bowel prep. They were preparing to do a barium enema instead of an upper GI. It was a good thing I was in the medical field and knew exactly what test I was having and why.
I agree that it must happen a lot..sm
A few years back I had an ink cartridge that I wanted to return because I had grabbed the wrong one. The Walmart wouldn't take it back. For that store anyways, it was their policy not to accept ink cartridges in return for that very reason. They told me that I wouldn't even believe how many they get back and are actually empty. I was told that I needed to send it back to the company for whatever brand it was.
I believed what they said because at that time my husband was a manager there.
When they do inventory it takes them like a month to do it, and you wouldn't believe sometimes how much money and merchandise is unaccounted for, not just easily concealable things either. No way to know how much of it was really stolen, but I would bet a good portion of it.
I'm sure they'll take back your cartridge. If you can't find your receipt, they will probably just give you a gift card figuring that if by chance you didn't get that cartridge there, at least they know you have to spend that gift card at a Walmart.
Just my 2 cents.
I'll tell you exactly what will happen.
If you don't buy it, everything will break. If you buy it, everything will break right after it runs out. lol. I bought a blazer a couple years ago, bought an extended warrantly and literally a month after it ran out my fuel pump burned up, some motor for my blinker burned out, had to get a new alternator, new battery, new tires (due to neighborhood felon in the making), driver side viser broke...I think there was more but I can't remember at the moment.
Anyhoo, good luck! :-)
i expected this probably would happen, but not yet.
I feel for her baby growing up without her mom and for her mother, who i'm sure always had hope that "vicki lynn" would come out of this downward spiral before it was too late. It's tragic all the way around. I would love to know if mr. lawyer is really innocent of all this too.
did these happen at once or different times? nm
I can only imagine what would happen
to all the animals that would not be adopted because the owners could not afford health insurance. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats,all adopted from shelters. We don't have insurance on them but isn't them living in a loving home a better alternqative then what might have happened to them?
Gee. I knew that would happen! LOL!
Know things happen but.....
I can relate to what you say; however when my own father asked me to move in with him (close to age 90) I refused to do that. I visited, had seen him growing up (parents divorced) but I would never ruin my life moving in with him as life would have been hel* for me, overbearing, rude, constantly belittled me in front of others (weight issue he had with me) and generally not the kind of person I would care to live with. However, this is what I did and he could take or leave it. He lived close by in another state and I told him I would get any assistance he could use be it Meals on Wheels, rides to and from appointments, just anything. It was up to him if he wanted or not. I did not care norr do I care now what anyone would think about this situation. My maternal aunt (who knew my father very, very well) said he had lived his life, now I should live mine. I am not throwing away my happiness to satisfy someone else. Now, if he had been a kind, understanding, loving father he could have possibly (and that is not a sure thing) moved in with ME but definitely not giving up my home, etc. to have lived with him.
What's the worst that can happen; you buy a new one?
I have heard people clean them by running them under the shower and letting them dry in the warm outside air. I'm going to try it, I have a backup cheapie to use if it gets ruined and I have to buy a new one.
Would you happen to be a male
Because any female knows how hard it is to go to school while having your period, especially having your FIRST period. And the thought of her using a tampon at that age I am sure freaks the poor child out. My DD is 17 and she still doesn't use tampons. I never used them until I had my 3rd child, over the age of 30. Only a male (I hope) would make such an uneducated response...more power to ya Mom, stick up for your DD 100%... the teacher was absolutely wrong in the way this situation was handled and should be confronted about it...good luck!
Yes, my mother had this happen. sm
I think she was in her 40s, can't remember exactly. She said it was the worst headache and vomiting ever. Her's also was a small bleed, such a small aneurysm that when it burst that was the end of the aneurysm. She recovered fully and if I remember right she was only in the hospital for a week or so.
A lot of assuming going on here. Did it happen or
x
It's not uncommon for this to happen, (sm)
and it suggests you are headed for reading glasses. The first indication will be that your focus change slows down because the lens is getting stiffer with age. This slowing started to happen to me about 2 years ago, and I started taking the eye supplement, lutein. It is described as a supplement for eye health, and I decided to take it because it's supposed to help avoid macular degeneration. But would you believe that slowing of my focus problem WENT AWAY completely? I am still not in reading glasses and have no trouble with my focus as long as I take lutein. This would be the time for you to start it to keep you out of bifocals for as long as possible.
I'm curious - how did that happen? - sm
I recently got pet health insurance for my cats, and notice that one of the things NOT covered is ACL injuries. Never heard of it in a cat before, but sometimes in dogs. Did she jump from something high? Is it in a back or a front leg?
You know what will happen if we all quit
There will have to be money coming from somewhere to replace the tax revenue lost if all of us wicked smokers just up and quit (or died, whichever!). They already decided we could do without the transfats and took those away from our McFrys; Salmonella risk caused many places to get rid of genuine cesar salads because of the raw eggs; and some places have banned pate. They may start slowly hitting the US consumer with a Twinkie tax- $1/pack, $10/carton. Those McFrys, even without the transfat we knew and loved) will have a $0.10 surcharge each (eek, I can't afford to supersize anymore), and I'm afraid that it will take a mortgage if I want to get that Chantilly Lace cake from the bakery.
Fat people and smokers- the last two groups that it's okay to make fun of in this country, and dang if I ain't both!
You wouldn't happen to be a bio-mom would you???
That sure would explain a lot of your behavior and comments.
The OP is doing nothing wrong by wanting a FAMILY and not a part-time husband. Leave her alone.
The point is this should NOT happen every day -
The fact that some people think this is okay is why a lot of these kids are so out of control. Do you want everyone to wait to take action until it's a 6:00 news story??? When I was in school this would not have been a big deal, and worked out between kids/parents. Unfortunately we live in a world today where kids do not seem to have morals or consciences and do not think twice about hurting another person because they were "mad". IMO the only way to change that is to STOP making it okay.
This could happen anywhere, not just WalMart.
nm
they didn't tell me that could happen! sm
Thanks for the info - they did not tell me that could happen! They told me the other one would take over the work of both. Mine was also removed due to a cyst. It has been a month and so far I am wondering if mine is working. How did you know yours stopped? Other than the obvious (no period) what symptoms did you have?
this didn't happen to me but had a sm
friend who use to work the ER as an aid back in the 80s. Ambulance and EMTs brought in two guys "stuck together." No kidding. I just have a visual on that one don't you all?
Accidents happen... sm
I guess I'd have to fire myself since I'm the cleaning lady around here because sometimes I occasionally break things accidentally. I guess that's the risk one takes with a cleaning person/service, but they're human and mistakes happen.
It always seems to happen like that, doesn't it.
Everything falls apart at once. Anyway, I have gas after having had electric for 15 years. I love my gas stove. The stove top is much faster, saves a lot of time. In the winter, when I'm done with the oven and turn it off, I open the door and it heats up the kitchen so nice and toasty. I would not go back to electric if I had a choice.
You are not strange. these things happen--sm
and if you ever watched *crossing over with John Edward* or his new show on WE *crossroads* with John Edward, you would understand about these experiences and know that your loved ones are trying to communicate with you the best way they can. He has many books you can read on the subject and you may even learn to communicate back. To me, and in my own opinion, I am envious, as my departed relatives, some of whom I would dearly love to hear from, do not do these types of things. Have a Merry Christmas!!!
Waking up can happen even with general
anesthesia, happened to me in the middle of a face lift as I was having my neck liposuctioned!! So having general (which I think is more than the conscious) does not mean you stay fully asleep. There are others waking with general, have seen stories on it before on 20/20 I think. I had other surgeries after that time but this was the only time I woke during surgery. I joked with the physician later about my awakening that the anesthesiologist must have gone out for lunch at that particular time!!
Bile, let it happen to one of your parents and maybe
you will think differently about it. I do not care if a person is all there or delusional, it will happen, whether it be someone taking advantage of them by taking their money or other means. This is a very dangerous situation for her mother. I had a court case pending on my father after family and children services determined that a married woman getting large amounts of money from him. This is not bile- I would not want it happening to my family or anyone elses family- but then maybe you just don’t give a big flip. Sorry I am closer to my family than you seem to be to yours...
Yes this is the first time I have ever had this happen. I would definitely see a doctor if it
happens again.
Not normal if something deadly that could happen-
you know he has sleep apnea and can be deadly and you call that normal? I probably would take him myself to the doctor but then I really am in love with my husband.
Things like this happen and will continue
There is a lot of flapping going on when this happens but the copycats are not just there, here in my state as well as I am sure in every other. Gun law is not changing. People have gone completely bonkers when it has to be politically correct, just makes me nausated. Kids cannot be kids anymore because games we played not good for them now, jungle gyms should not be played on- they might get hurt- and this is just 1 example of a looney being left alone because even the college apparently could not let his parents know and they probably knew anyway. Closing the campus down- well he was a student, right and so he would have access to there is that not true? There is no way to protect people when you have someone so bent on destruction. We would have to be a total police state. It just gets worse by the day.
well, I did happen to read all of the posts, and --sm
I just don't see where there was anger and lashing out, but that's just me.
But some of it He does allow to happen - my friend died (sm)
of lymphoma and left behind her six month old baby. She never had a single normal day with her child as she got sick during her pregnancy. Many of us prayed so hard. Maybe it was God's will for her to die, I don't know, and I know that we don't understand everything he allows. But he DOES ALLOW things. Her illness had nothing to do with people being evil. I am a Christian, as in I believe in God and Jesus, but I don't pretend to understand everything, because I really, really do not understand.
What surprised? Things happen everywhere
Have televison on as I work and live reports- a noose found on door of a black educator at Columbia College in New York - yes things happen like this elsewhere, not just the south and another high school shooting in Cleveland, Ohio this time. People are saying shocked it happened at both places. College people said the people there are educated. I don’t know if education has to do with racism. I wonder if and when things like this might be a thing of the past.
I had that happen with my first root canal
I was fine for a day or so and then it got really sore. The endodonist kind of brushed me off when I told him I had twinges of pain for a good 2 weeks.
But now doesn’t happen anymore
because I have no further contact with them- this is part of my past life. I wish them well.
Even though it used to happen, doesn't make it right.
Honestly the humilitation of being paddled by a man in front of my mother would have sent me into hysterics. I was paddled a couple times in school, and yes it hurt a LOT, by a principal and a teacher but it was always in private, but even with the witness it was always really embarrassing. I hated it, sticking my be-hind out for all the world to see so someone could try to get me to cry.
I don't think humiliation is a good punishment, don't like shame. Pain isn't either.
She ALLOWED it to happen. She signed for it.
She's no saint nor even a decent parent to not stand up for her child.
What a bunch of crap.
Life is short. Who knows what could happen? Go for it! NM

he may love the dog and doesn't want something bad to happen; he is 14.

I think you post is HIGHLY unlikely to happen because (sm)
I read people well, and what I read in the mother's post is proof positive that she is a very loving mother. Her daughter is going thru normal teen behavior.
May I ask you; do you have children? Because if you don't, you have no idea what you are speaking about. Only parents can TRULY understand this situation.
Mom: This pic is for you. It represents serenity and faith that ALL will be fine. My thoughts are sincerely with you during this trying time, but please trust me, it WILL pass.
We had that happen with an old dial-up account
But there was no advanced warning or anything. One month our bill was what they said it would be and the next month it had doubled if not tripled. They told us it was because we were "unusually heavy users." I don't even remember what company it was, but we dropped them immediately.
Again, it can happen with any breed. Look at pitbulls..
.
Maybe it doesn't work for everyone, but it can happen
Don't let this poster discourage you. Maybe that's her experience, but but it can be done. My sister-in-law and her ex-husband (as well as my sister-in-law's current husband) are all friends. Even though they've been divorced for years, my kids still call him Uncle Tom and he is invited to all family parties and always spends the holidays with us.
