I'm on "Robert"...HA! I'm guessing that could cause problems with my dh who is NOT named Robert...but it'd sure be fun to say!
Bleeding hemorrhoids SUCK, Rock!
(((HUGS)))

Cat - oh ye of quick mind. Hopefully your co-worker will try to engage her damn brain before she opens her stupid pie hole from now on...
Hanna, I'm picturing you in your hospital gowns and flip flops pole dancing the night away. Ha! Absolutely hysterical...
Diane, sucks you are in pain. Hoping for an end to that suckage pronto.
My bitch today is for my friend - the 26 -yr-old recently diagnosed with bc. She had her port surgery this morning and was soooo upset that no one came - no family or friends - and no one called to see how she was. She's not understanding why folks seem to be treating this like it is no big deal while she is feeling like she is drowning. She hates her onc (btdt), is driving to all of her appointments alone and is generally feeling overwhelmed. Worst of all is her ex - my a$$hole cousin - who blew her off right after some action between the sheets (just before lumpectomy surgery). She has such a good heart and just can't see that everyone isn't wired to be as empathetic and caring as she is. I want to yoke her mom, strangle her sisters and brother then kick my cousin in the nuts...
This disease - and every freaking aspect of it - absolutely sucks...

rock, yes I agree... all that stuff sucks, especially the bleeding, stupid names for chemo drugs, too.
I think that IV pole dancing sounds very interesting!
Felicia, that is horrible about your friend!! Being so young, and having a bc dx SUCKS, and then having no one to help her or support her in her time of need, it is just not right! BC stinks! It all just SUCKS!! I would like to help you to teach these people a lesson... WHERE IS THAT SHOVEL??

{[Diane}} SO sorry you are hurting today! Perhaps it was an overdone day of shopping that caused it? Hope you recouped enough tomorrow for that trip to center, darn it! Is there no one that can drive you? A friend perhaps? I'll keep your safety in mind tomorrow and add and extra prayer for the trip and the pain dear! Rest well tonight.

Hi Tracers,
Your "This Sucks", I'm Bitchy, Moan and Grown", reading back, appears to be quite a SUCK-CESS! Deliciously tempting; too SUCKulent to pass-up the opportunity, YO!, to share moments following dx. dx. tx. and dx, as so many have come to know so Sucking well!
Are you still posting around this place? I haven't posted much, too busy pretending I'm capable and intelligent, reading volumes of research, how the cells are cycled, proteins and brain enzymes...talk about sucky, sucky, sucky, sucky, sucky, soooooooooooh!
Totalled my DH's Subaru on April 8 on the way to a doctor appointment, to find out why my leg was swollen above the knee, and to see about this ongoing crap in my mouth, throat, esophogus, and stomach. It started over two years ago, and they all look at me like there's a skull and crossbones stuck on my ass. Wow, and it's getting SO BIG. During Radiation Treatments ending a year and a half ago, oh, Halloween 2006, I fell though the doors when they flung open from tornado-like winds. Falling, falling, falling...packages, purse contents, cell phone, and worst of all, my hat...my hat! I never got a wig; just made these hats to wear. The hair at that time was patchy, crude, 7 different colors, and spikey, with a curl here and there.
Down on my knees, on bricks, the rain pouring down my back flonked on something sharp, and I hit my head, arms and legs bleeding, hands bleeding, and a twisted ankle. I lay there, crawling, rolling around like a squished caterpillar....help me...
People just walked by. They looked at me, and kept walking. A bunch of them were looking out of the doors I'd been SUCKED out of, and just stared. Doy....
I managed to get up, go in, use the lavatory, wash myself off, pee, and drive home in a torential dounpour, taking three hours, what usually is an hour and forty minutes. I was still thin, was dressed well, and still lookin relatively pretty and normal, with a hat or bandana. Not one person inquired or offered to help. Not even an "Are you okay?".
It was the beginning of my "New, NOT, Normal".
After the recent Car Wreck, over-correctung the steering to avoid running over an animal and/or smashing into the car passing at 90 mph, the steering went into remote, meaning it became frozen, nothin', bada=bada,,,nada,,,3 rollovers and a flying burrito over the berm, the car landed on it's roof in a giant mudpuddle of leaves, gook, splash! It rolled on it's side...I had a comcussion, and remember only unstrappung the seatbelt, plunk, crawling out of the broken glass window and into the muck. Now, that sucked!
It was all about the knees, the side effects, the cumulative garbage the doctors pass around like puke on a plate...no body was giving me answers. I was on my way to seek help from my country doctor, and she knows little about breast cancer's frothy head of bubbles and long term sides effects.
Helicoptors, ambulences, police officers, firetrucks...yikes. I was awake, talking, trying to get up, and they were tieing me to a board to whirl me off to a traumatic Trauma Unit, where no one listened to me, what a trip. A zillion doctors, nurses, and everybody yelling, including me...don't take blood pressure or blood from the left arm...and then I was out...morphine. They preformed every blood, spine, head brain, neck, inside outside, you-name it Test, no questions asked.
Good thing I have insurance...The entire bill for my little sojourn was about $35,000.00.
Now, don't you think one of them would have figured out why my knee tissue is swollen, (both are) but left is worse. Is it hand foot syndrome, a blood clot, neuropathy, infection, an embolism, or mets, why am I so fatigued, beat, exhausted? What is this "crap" in my mouth, throat, and stomach? They tested urine, feces, colon, good grief...and told me I had a concussion and spinal/neck injuries...I knew that (sorry).
So, not to bore everyone, that's where I've been, and feel like it really sucks. Wading through all this sucker suffering succotash! Now I really feel like life sucks, no car. No wheels. And no answers so far...though I have made some miracles. No one was hurt in the single crash, and the little groundhog, fox, cat...NEDA...No Evidence of Dead Animal.
I got a ticket...failure to control, and the highway patrol delivered it personally, along with a lecture...if you ever see an animal, kill it, don't swerve. Okay (Officer Not Zee). Bye Bye.
I am currently seeing new doctors, and eeking out a gameplan for getting well. At least so I can feel a teensie bit better, or hopefully a lot; who knows. It sucks.
I'm with you Angel...where are my loungepants? They cut my favorite ones off...as well as favorite sweater, favorite coat, and even my shoes! It was absurd. But, a neck injury can proove to be worse than fatal; parapalegically speaking. I understand, and after all the cancer crud, one split second should have taken me from this world. What am I doing here, anyway? There has to be a greater power. We know. You know. And whatever created pain, suffering, angst and despair...it sucks.
How are you all...hey Chemosabi...loves ya!
love,
Indi

Hey all,
Indigo--sorry about your wreck and your knees, and the worries. Harley--shovel discipline, don't go in alone!! Rally the asymmetrical bald troops....and those who used to be either. Rock--Bleeding? Hemmorhoids? So sorry. LOL about Robert and Charles, though. Charles gave me horrible gas, too, what a coincidence!! Diane--So sorry you are hurting. Prayers and soft featherbeds coming your way, with ice packs for your lower back and legs..and light. soft loving massages....I hope you feel better. Glad you got to spend the day with your son. Felicia--sorry about your friend..wish I could be her family for her. No one should have to go through this alone. Did you tell her about us?
My suckage was actually fun, but I said something I shouldn't have. Remember I was complaining about the "random" audit which isn't really random? Today I was being questioned by a woman who works for Air Traffic Oversight, and she was remarking that the controller she was listening to wasn't following a certain procedure (which doesn't impact safety--he was getting the job done, just not using the exact right words). This guy was working about ten airplanes at 3 o'clock in the morning, after working a day shift the day before (working 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., then coming back in a 11:00 p.m. to work all night) and I can tell you that takes strength because at 3 in the morning you start to fall asleep and it's like a tree falling in the forest, you can slow it down but you can't stop it. So anyway, in this really prim tone of voice, she says, I listened until 1900 (time) (complex issue but we use Greenwich Mean Time which is local time plus 5 hours and 1900 would be 2 oclock in the afternoon) and I said, 1900 would be two oclock in the afternoon, and she said, No it wouldn't, and I said, yes it would, do you mean 0900 (which would be 4 o clock in the morning) and she said, No I mean 1900. So I said are you sure? and THEN she looked at her notes and admitted she meant 0900. So I said, and I shouldn't have said it but I just don't CARE, "See how easy it is to make a mistake?" OOOOh, she didn't like that!!!!! I was taking steroids today for my chemo tomorrow and I am going to have to be really careful with that!!! It removes a lot of my inhibitions...then again, I am a 30-year employee with a really good reputation and I can probably stand it!!! And blame it on the drugs and get away with it!!! There by God OUGHT to be some damn fringe benefits to this stupid disease!!!!
See, I got angry again.. It's the drugs! it's not my fault!!!
Love you guys,
Sue

Sue ~ Just be like your tag line - "Well behaved women rarely make history." I thought you just HAD to be a super Sueper13 from that tag line when I first read it! If anyone has a problem just show them the steroid se's from your prescription info sheet!
hanna - who wants to make history too ~
Diane - you are a great Mom and good luck for you tomorrow when you get your dose of Roberto (just kickin' Robert up a notch)

I have nothing sucky to report today.
Sue, way to go, girl! You know I've told you before how impressed I am with the ATC half of the radio communications I've heard. The best was the controller who told us to be sure to see the white squirrels while we were visiting Olney, IL. For real: http://www.ci.olney.il.us/Visitors/WhiteSquirrel.htm
Not just keeping the airways safe, but helping out as a tour guide, even!
So, Indi, you wrecked your dh's car, and you got a ticket for not hitting an animal? Wow. Not sure I like that lesson.
Oh. I did think of one sucky thing. Rock reminded me. My PCP wants me to have a "routine" screening colonoscopy, but I've been putting it off until after I'm through with chemo. Well, I'm through with chemo (last Taxotere/Cytoxan was 3 wks ago). How long do y'all think I need to wait for everything "down there" to get back to normal so the 'scope isn't even more traumatic than it ordinarily would be? I'm thinking maybe 4 or 5 years.... No, just kidding. I need to do it, I know; I just don't want everything in there to get all ripped up. (I'm thinking of poor Rock.)

Otter? Why can't you just to the little home test first and see if there's a reason to 'go below'? For goodness sakes, it's a trauma yes and after all your bodies been through, I'd give it 6 months myself! THen again....I'm putting off even doing the home test the doc gave me. Did 2 of the first kind and they were defective. He gave me another type and I don't like it! You have scoop it dern it! Just not ready to do it..... hate docs, Have I mentioned that before?
0 -
Diane, I'm so sorry about your pain. I hope it gets better after some rest.
Hanna LOL what a wonderful picture you paint. When I had my gall bladder out my head hurt soooo badly they promised to have caffeine waiting for me when I woke up. By the way, I'd pay BIG money for a copy of that tape. I just can't get over that you were the "evening entertainment" lolol
Rock, is Robert good looking? As long as I can dance with NED I'll be on "whoever". You make it sound kinda fun. Sorry about your problems that aren't quite behind you....but are. UGH
Chemosabi, you're definitely detail-oriented, I'm trying to learn from you. I am very much so at work, but not so much at home. It's so nice of everyone to let me off the hook. I really do say a little prayer for each person's suckiness....as long as everyone knows that.
Felicia, at least your friend has you. I hope her sucky family and friends come to their senses. That's very sad.
Sue, is roid rage your new super power? Oops wrong thread. I think your comment to the auditor was perfect. lol No one could argue with that logic.
Hi Harley, Otto and wish!

Another quick pop in! Woke up late. My suckiness this morning is so OT! Have to attend an unexpected meeting with the owners where I work. They are not happy because our census is down. Yuck - hate those meetings.
Indi: A big hello to you and so nice to see you. Yep, this is my favorite place. Everytime I read about your car accident I get shivers down my spine. That whole thing definitely deserves a big that sucks.
Felicia: I cant believe someone so young has to be going through what your friend is. That sucks so much! Guess I took alot of people for granted while going through treatment. There was always someone there for me. She has be graced though, to have you - even if you live so far apart, you are one of the strongest woman I know.
Hanna: Oh I laughed and laughed at your pole dancing story.
Sue: Loved the roid rage story. Glad you spoke up - darn auditors! I had a good visual of all of us bald or previously bald, hormone deprived women carrying their shovels!
Lori: Im left handed and when I write - I print! Cant print faster than anyone I know. Miss perfection at its best!
Wish and Otter: Im looking at the same issues with my PCP. Sucks big time. I think I will go for the home test first.
Diane and Rock: OMG! Im on Robert - that made me spit out my coffee. Too funny.
A big that sucks to everyone I missed. Time to hit the showers and head off to work. Dang meetings, I hate them.

Diane- Wow, that really sucks all your pain!!! Damn it all! I am glad you had the day with your #3 son. Loved the part of you getting good deals!!! We woman always seem so much happier when we get the good deals!! My hubby does not care since I do not shop much, but my close friend's husband is always like.... but we did not need it, so where is the good deal side!!! LOL! He has a point but it is so fun to get something you don't need and a good deal!
Hanna- I can not stop laughing I told my DH and he is cracking up! If your video makes it to Utube let us know!!!
Harley- You give them crap honey! I went off on my infection dr's nurse yesterday and some how the report that was never back.....suddenly "It's a miracle" according to her, it showed up yesterday! They tell me how important it is too get this report and follow up with new dr on my insurance because of the serious infection. And still the report sits in la la land for 20 days! I had procedure done June 5th! Sending hubby would be a good idea. Men can relate to lack of sex problems and maybe dr would feel more compassion for your husband not getting any! Then you having pain!!! did you always have pain? I did in certain postions especially, they thought it maybe endro, but turns out it was just a well endowed hubby! Not bragging, I just want to say that can be part of it! I told my gyn to make sure she made the vaginal cuff a little longer for me, because of hubby's part being a little on the long side! Her and I cracked up I mean belly laughing cracked up! My husband sat next to me in the pre-op room totally red, and I know he was thinking "knock her ass out, before she starts yapping more" LOL!!!! It still cracks me up! I told him I had to tell her I do not want a short v cuff and pain, and he says yes he knows but I make him uncomfortable sometimes cause I am so open and talkative!!! But he'd added that is part of why he loves me! Nice save! HUH! Trust me I will keep yapping openly so dr's beware if I start having issues when they release me for sex! I can make the most experienced Dr blush!
I want to touch base with all of you girls. It is so hard to keep up opn this post!!! I have to go get my best friends DD at the pool. She always calls me not her Dad to get her?? I don't what is up with that I am her second Mom always have been even before her Mom died last year. But I can not ask her why she never calls Dad, I don't want her to think I do not want the time with her but it is weird. She is still having such an adjustment to losing mom. She will be 15 this year, man I feel so sad remembering the day she was born, I watched her older brother and later in the afternoon along came beautiful Amy Colleen, who would have guessed Barb would only be here until Amy was 13!!! sucks,sucks,sucks!! Better go get her by girls!!

Indigo - glad you're back. Sucks about your knee issues and the car wreck. I bet whatever you avoided on the road kept on running - probably to the next wooded area and far, far away from your flipping car. Mud, back boards and cut up clothes all suck, too...
Sue - great comeback to the auditor. I need quick come backs like yours, Cat's and Rock's. Is there a book or something?
Otter - not envying your dilema at all with the exploration of the nether regions. I have to go for a colonoscopy myself. What a pain in the a$$ it is (not literally, but still!)...
No fair, Miss Lolli & Wish: you didn't add a bitch to the list!
Nicki - hope your meeting went well. Or at least is over by now...
A hearty "That Sucks!" to Dani's DH, blushing to beat the band in the waiting room. Kinda sweet that your friend's daughter calls you to pick her up, Dani. Sucks that we still don't have those transporter things they used in Star Trek or flying carpets yet to make going to get her easier. Weren't they supposed to be a main staple by 2000 or so?!?
Diane - hoping you are feeling a bit better today...
Harley - Sending you a wave from up the coast...
Traci - how are you?
Howdy to everyone I may have missed...

Well, I just got through responding to a message for a dear friend who moved to another state about a year ago, and was diagnosed a few weeks ago. She had her surgery Monday and has DCIS. They are pretty sure they got it all, but it was tight in the back margin. THIS SUCKS. I hate cancer, I hate the look it puts on our faces, and the feeling it puts in our guts, and I hate the feeling like I'm going to cry. And I hate that beautiful women get this disease that does this to them. It really sucks to talk about Arimidex with her, instead of our jobs and our husbands and our daughters.
0 -
Indigo - I'm so sorry about your car, and your knees and the ticket. It sucks. I bet the critter wasn't even grateful.
Dani - you just keep your husband blushing. I bet he loves it. I'm sorry for your friend's daughter - that's a tough age to lose a mom. Like there's a good one.
Sueper - Got to admire those assertive women. Remember, we aren't bitches, we are strong.
Nicki - don't you hate that our bosses insist that we pretend we care? I just haven't been quite able to tell my manager that, and I keep hoping the feeling will go away, permanently.
Colonoscopies - I had one a few weeks ago, and it wasn't that bad, honest. I rather have another than another boob biopsy! I didn't have chemo, but thought some details might help.
I had to remind myself when scheduling everything that our docs are nagging us because they don't want to have to treat us for another cancer. And, really, knowing that I don't have colon cancer is a BIG weight off my mind - I didn't realize, but it's another of those little voices in the back of my head. You know - well, you're at increased risk of a breast cancer recurrence, and you'll probably get uterine cancer from the tamoxifin, and you can get colon cancer too, wouldn't that be fun, all those people interested in that part of your body that you are embarassed to acknowledge, like we all don't have the same plumbing (well, except for the girly/man bits).
Actually, the hardest part was the clear liquid diet for 24 hrs before. I was hungry, and cranky, but I had little cartons of Swanson's chicken broth, and lots of green jello (no red), and fruit juice. I ate lite the day before, too, no nuts or seeds or other hard to digest things. My dr's office uses a Miralax prep that you mix with a lot of non-red (seeing a theme here) beverage, then you drink it all. My stomach was not pleased -- I've been working really hard to shrink it, and here I am jamming all this fluid in. But I didn't throw up or anything, and everything was out in a couple of hours. I had been afraid of cramping, but there was none. Everything was gentle, thorough, but no pain - I used baby wipes, and wish I'd taken a friend's advice that I use Desitin ointment, because things got a little (but little) sore.
I wore a GSleeve to the surgery, because I was having anesthesia, no sedation. Since they had to do everything in one arm (blood pressure and IV), I was surprised at how sore my arm got - I was also lying on that arm. I insisted that they let me get the arm comfortable, although they pointed out that I'd be asleep in a few minutes, because I knew I was the only one who would have to deal with my arm afterwards. And I take care of these things that I use. Took a lot of anesthesia to get me out - they kept saying, aren't you sleepy, and I kept saying no, I told you recovering alcoholics are hard to anesthetize. Took three injections into the IV. God, didn't they think I knew what I was talking about.
I was awake and chatting with my husband in an hour - I had a few little adenomas (pre-cancerous), so I need to rechecked in 5 years, but that is not a big deal. I did have a touch of bleeding because they removed polyps, but lunch tasted really good.
I hope this helps somebody, cause I didn't want to do this test, but it was really worth it. And now my doctors don't have anything to yell at me about. Sorry if this is TMI, but unknown tests SUCK.

Sue I Can Do this-
Yes, I thought the colonoscopy was really not too bad, but the prep really SUCKS!
Traci,
Good to hear from you girl!! What are you saying... you can't wait til things settle down? Do they EVER settle down?? Nothing has settled down for me since all this bc crap started. If you know the secret to making things just settle down, even for awhile, please let me know...
Hugs

OMG, that all really sucks, y'all...
What doesn't suck is the amazingly gifted writing here: laughs from Dani, horrifically vivid images from Indi, etc...
Sueper13, I don't think you should breathe a word about steroids being responsible for your comment! Don't invite them to label you as "impaired" -- because you're not! And what you said to that auditor was TOTALLY "called for" IMO. Some young snip NEEDS to respect professionals who have been in the trenches for 30 years, and recognize that she has something to learn from you and your colleagues!
Otter, I would think waiting 6 months for colonoscopy is not the worst idea, to let the epithelium (I think that's it?) restore itself more fully and calm down. I found a paper that says colonoscopy is recommended 12 months after the end of chemo given to treat colorectal cancer -- so -- maybe it's not scientific of me to extrapolate from that, but I don't think your waiting 6 more months sounds like a bad idea.
And speaking of "nether regions" -- Rock, bleeding hemorrhoids SUCK! Harley and Dani, pain on intercourse for either spouse SUCKS HORRIBLY for both spouses! Been there, and ended up not being able to do that!!!
Felicia -- I'm glad your friend has YOU.
Diane -- pain SUCKS.
Love to all -- sorry there are so many of us with so many IOS...

Yes, ICan, IT'S all sucky with this horrible danged disease! IT SUCKS! Purely and totally!
Can I just say, THAT SUCKS too all your problems and such and not itemize. Dh is home today and driving me nutty! UGH!
Okay Felicia. You wanted a B*tch, here it is! I don't like my onco and should have changed months ago, but well....I put it off. Now I'm getting no where with the female pain and lack of sex and well....it's TIME He's gone! Not to mention, he said under his breath last visit, 'Well, I don't normally deal wth BC pts' WTH? THen he proceeds to tell with all this, that he's going to switch me to aromasin. IF that doesn't work, he'll finally do the test I asked to see I metab, the tamox and try that. If we still have trouble, then he'll just stop it all and not give me any! WTF? I THINK NOT BUDDY of mine! Forego the anti-hormones with this crap? HE's NUTS!
So, I had been researching and talking to others who use a clinic in our town of oncos. They recommend this lady and I had called 2 weeks to get an appt. Have to do all the paperwork and what not first. SO I forgot....called again yesterday and NOW they have a new lady and I'd be seeing her. Get her name, and I'M ALMOST certain she is another one from another country. This current guy is very personable and what not, but aside from never being able to answer a question without looking on his charts he has in my file, he is horrible to understand and has YET to answer a question appropriately. I Think it's just a communication thing, but....I WANT ANSWERS and guidance and not to be fitted into a form or graph.
So, now I'm wondering if this is going to be a similar situation. I'm really TRYING to keep an open mind, but dang it! WHY can't get a doc from this country, who speaks fluent english and knows about BC too? THis other lady is starting july 1st, so who knows where she is from, or what she knows, I have NO recommendation for her, or know nothing about her~
SO! THAT MY BITE TODAY! Sorry you asked? Hope not, but....it's really eating at me, that we have so many docs in this state who either CAN not understand me, or me them when conversing I hate it!0 -
OMG - my friend just sent me a text that she is ready to give up! WTH?!? Anyone in or near south jersey? I'm just too freaking far away...

Hi everybody...the Lumpectomy is done! Yesterday was pretty much a lost day for me, but at least I got to come home and sleep in my own bed last night, with plenty of furry kitties to snuggle. My frozen section on the sentinel node was negative and the prelim on the margins of the lump is good. Final path should be out Friday and onco test will be 10 days or so. The right boob is huge and purple and throbbing...and that SUCKS...but hey...the nipple is pointing up again, and it has not done that in quite a few years. Of course the other unsick nipple side is still sadly pointing to the ground. I have an unmatched pair for a few days. I am not doing much of anything today so have enjoyed reading all the posts here. Lots of smiles, giggles and plenty of THAT REALLY SUCKS...you guys are all awesome.
I'm going to pop a Percocet, ice the boobie, and nap for a bit here. Will be back later.

She's not quite ready to come here yet. She logged on once, felt a bit overwhelmed and was gone...
She did text me a little while ago saying she was ok - but scared the sh*t out of me when she wouldn't answer her phone! I told her if I didn't hear from her in 10 minutes, I was calling the po-po (police). I meant it, too...
I remember that overwhelming how-will-I-ever-get-through-this-cap? feeling so well, but I had family to bounce stuff off of. She's so hurt that they and my butthead cousin don't seem to care. I can feel her slipping away in a sort of "well if nobody else cares, why should I?" sort of way. And it's freaking me out...
Maria, she is ER and PR negative too, but does not yet know her HER2 status. I'm gonna pm you in a few...

Just learned that a friend with prostate cancer died today. He and his long time partner were going to get married on July 2nd, and now they never can. It sucks big time - they were one of my favorite couples. Life sucks & then you die ...
CatMck: it turns out the lumpectomy is the easiest part of treatment. They knock you out for that - they don't knock you out for the other stuff!

You guys, THAT SUCKS doesn't even begin to cover it today.....Every time I read of someone else being lost to this damn disease, or someone who feels alone or afraid, it just turns my stomach. I am so sick of bad news and hard times. i feel like if I could just have a break from it all I might manage better, but there are no breaks, not ev en an ending date for my chemo....i just keep on keeping on....it sucks, and I am so, so sorry....
