Does anyone else ever get these cyst type things under your arms.  I have for years.  They are like little lumps or bumps under the skin.  They never come to a head or anything but will go away and then I will get them on the other side and in different spots.  I have read that your sweat glands can become clogged and cause hidradenitis.  Very annoying.  I have had them on and off for years come and go.

Anyone with renal cysts and are they
watchhing them, are they growing, what have you been told about yours? Not supposed to go back for a few months and yet have had back pain from ??? Any information out there? Thanks.
Ganglion cysts?

I am almost positive this is what I have.  It is a soft bulge at the base of my wrist.  I noticed it before and thought it was just a prominent wrist bone, but lately I have noticed some mild numbness and tingling and a little bit of pain.  So, after doing some research, I'm pretty sure I have a ganglion cyst. 


I absolutely cannot afford to take much time off work!  So, I would like to hear from anyone who has had surgery to have a ganglion cyst removed from your wrist area, how long did you have to refrain from transcription, when did the pain from the surgery resolve, and anything else you can think to offer to help me decide whether I should make that initial appointment?  I know there is no rush on seeking treatment, but since I am starting to have some symptoms, I am considering at least getting it looked at.  Thanks for any info anyone can offer!

My 18-year-old has had ovarian cysts
since 8th grade. THe first time she was in pain for about 2 weeks. All they did for her (after we went to the hospital and determined it was not appendicitis) was give her a few pain pills and take it easy for a while, and go back every 6 months for ultrasound. SHe was fine up until last November when she is now having pain almost every month around her cycle for a day or 2. We actually went to the hospital again wiht her in November and they said one had ruptured, but really there wasn't anything they can do for her except remove her ovaries which she is way to young to have done. They did put her on BCP to suppress them, but if misses even 1 dose she has a doozy of a time.
Straight into the arms of someone to
support me!!!!
Arms are not long enough

I have finally succumbed to the fact that yes I do need reading glasses as well as for distance.  I'm just at that age and have put it off long enough. 


My question is for those of you who wear glasses and have this same vision problem, do you have bifocals or two separate pairs of glasses, one for reading and one for distance?  I can't make up my mind which way to go with this.  Thanks!


and I could paint with my feet if I had no arms
the question is if I had a choice, I think I would choose to have arms.
If your choice was no arms or being put in strange
in how to survive in such surroundings, with predators all around, you would still rather have your arms?  Except with declawing, we are not taking whole legs, just a first joint of a digit.  Really cant compare this to no arms. 
Wouldn't exercise work just as well? My arms tone up
aa
When my arms no longer reached the keyboard, I was suspicious.
I then lapsed into a coma and didn't wake up until there was a strange person with spiked orange hair in my kitchen, demanding the keys to my car. It was either a burglar or my child - I don't know. They've never come back with the car, but that's not proof of anything so I haven't filed a police report yet.
Long arms, loose joints, narrow back.
I'm sort of the opposite of that Tauranosaurus rex complaning of his short arms and big head, LOL.

There isn't a part of my back I can't reach with at least the back of my hand. Poor DH has a huge area he can't reach. Good thing I'm around for him.

short arms, short-term memory loss...
I too suffer from Short Arm Syndrome. Add to that the short-term memory loss that middle-age brings and I have now discovered I need to lasso the &*%$ reading glasses around my neck or my day will be spent wandering in circles asking the dog where my glasses are.

I have two pairs, per advice of doctor. I do not wear glasses all the time, so he thought I was not ready for bifocals. My son gave me a wonderful eyeglass case for Christmas that is big enough to hold both pairs should I ever venture out of the house amongst the living.

I did manage to find some "sporty" looking around-the-neck-eye glass holder thingies - what DO you call those things? I'd use twine before getting those multicolored beaded ones. I have a neon coral one and an emerald green one. Too bad I can't find the former, I can't remember where I put it.
