((((Cookie)))) So if you are moving in 1 week anyway & the job (for you) is in another city, is there anyway you both can just move to the new city? Or is that not something you would want/need to do? I hope that you get this straightened out soon. It sounds very stressful. I will be sending you rays of energy (feel them yet?)

I will get a room/house share/cottage in the new town and come home some weekends. He will stay here and visit me in the hills.
It's not perfect but we were long distance our whole courtship and the first 4 months of our marriage.Thanks for the rays of energy....my take out came 15 minutes early!

Packing is really not much fun.

Cookiegal - THAT'S an understatement! Packing is one of the most torturous activities out there. Right up there with removing wallpaper. I also hate unpacking. Nothing makes your stuff look like the useless crap that it is like unwrapping it from packing paper. Hang in there! Soon you'll be hiding in your new location... Are you at least excited about where you're going to be living?

Regina that stinks. My thoughts go out to you and hugs. Hang in there. Glad to see you were able to walk. Missed our relay as my youngest brother is home from New Mexico and we had a wonderful picnic at my Mom's this weekend.

It's been good news/bad news for me today...Heard from GYN that my PAP is still not normal, so I continue on six mo. checks for that. That's the bad. No biggie. I can't lose sleep over that.
The good is my PCP was very amenableto switching me off of Cymbalta. I brought in the internet printout that showed the interaction with Tamox., which he then read, and then we both blurted out another alternate drug at the same time. Now we are on the same page again and I am trying one called Savella in a couple weeks.
For the couple of other women on here with fibromyalgia, Savella is a relatively new SNRI, but it blocks the norepinephrine at a ratio of 3:1 to the serotonin. Meaning, it's less an anti-depressant and more a pain blocker. I'll comment on the effectiveness in a few weeks for those that might be interested.
(SO, it just shows my PCP (who has a good, caring attitude) can err from time to time. Like I said before, it doesn't hurt to double-check your meds. or info. from your doctor EVEN IF you really like him/her. You might catch somthing that they miss)

Can someone tell me how to post pic's on here? I've tried & tried several time, but just can't get them to come through. Please list step, by step, by step. Just in case I'm missing something. I click on the insert image, then the image url and put in my pic. #, then description, I do not know what to put in alignment, then demensions, don't know what to put in border, vertical space or horizontal space. So if someone could please tell me I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance. I even tried to just cut and paste and it will not even let me do that. THANKS AGAIN. Leisa

As usual...I am off-topic. After 8 years and 12 days my 26 year old son is now medically retired from the Marine Corps!!! Doing the happy dance!

I'll do the Happy Dance with you smithlme, cause that's good news and I like to dance.
By the way leisaparis, I got this pic from Photobucket by clicking on the pic, then copying the HTML code. After clicking the tree icon, I just pasted the code into the URL space and clicked insert, and didn't worry about size. Once the pic is inserted into your post, you can click on the picture and drag the borders around to whatever size you want. If you are doing that and it is not working, I'm not sure why not.
If it's your own picture, I think I just right clicked on my own pic to get to "properties" and you can get the code from there. I hope it works for you. I don't know that I am that good at explaining it.
Edit: p.s. -- Or you might have to upload your own photos onto your own Photobucket account. I've forgotton what exactly I did when I put up a few of my own pics.

If only we could be on that beach in Tahiti right now...all of our B/C troubles would be washed away in that turquoise water (and we'd get so much vitamin D, the B/C would never return.)
And in my fantasy, the manservant is about to emerge from the hut with a tray of assorted frozen beverages!

OMG!!!! I want to go to that hut in Tahiti and hang with the cabana boy!!!!! That's GORGEOUS! But instead, we're going to drive for 15 hours to go to a brown lake in Georgia. Almost as fun.

Hey, gang, quick update--
The anesthesiologist was as good as her word--started one small IV to put me out with and the resident kept me so distracted I didn't even notice! Got marked up by Dr. Tobias, got a quick initial by Dr. Pories, then I was wondering if I'd get to see Mom once more before they started. Next thing I vagulely remember is a bunch of people shouting at me to stay still, and a lots of people comeing in and "checking" and "dopplering" things and being told I'd go to a room later since surgery "went a little long." When I was finally able to ask and remember what day it was it was Wednesday. My surgery went 18 hours and 45 minutes. The radiation that I knew screwed everything up had "tangled, blocked, and shredded" most of the blood vessels in BOTH breasts (I supposedly only had radiation to the left). I got back home this last Friday and am VERY gradually gaining energy every day. Moving is getting easier, but the emotional rollercoaster ride is kicking in--ah, well, guess a girl can hope for a perfect recovery!

I'm so glad to hear from you NM. You've been in my thoughts and prayers - OMG almost 19 hours??? Glad the IV went in well and very glad that you are getting a little better everyday.

NativeMainer - Eighteen hours? Yow! I've heard of alien autopsies that took only half the time! I don't know, but maybe you now hold some kind of reconstruction record. On this thread at least. Good old radiation, still making a mess of things, huh? Well, it's done. You did it. They didn't turn you into a pincushion with needle sticks (and someone other than me won in the betting pool.)
I'm making a Get Well floral arrangement for you right now.

It was me...I won the pool. Glad you are back and well, NM!
