Hi hermit- greetings from Santa Fe. Concert was good. Came back to sit by a nice outdoor fire by the pool. I love outdoor fireplaces in the fall and winter, NM places have a bunch of them.
Cami- are you okay? Check in with us when you are up to it.0 -
Teka- the div. took a lot out of you. I hope you get your strength back.
Back home. Mini get away did me good.0 -
Hi Everyone,
Had a quiet weekend, my birthday was yesterday. DH made me breakfast and brought home a boquet of roses along with a sweet card. I talked to my kids, and read my birthday wishes on facebook.
I don't know who all checks out the tnbc thread, but there is an excellent post fom inspired (Deb) about how to handle stress, fear and all the other crap we experience with this disease....
These past weeks have been a bit of a challenge, fear is rearing its ugly face....
I filled my bird feeders up, and I swear there was a flock of birds in my back yard.....they look so happy, and watching them truely took me a way from unpleasant thoughts......
Take Care my sweet hermit friends.....0 -
Lori- happy belated birthday. I am sorry that you are feeling anxious and fearful. I go through periods like that too, especially before my follow ups. I try to focus on the fact I am doing the best I can to take care of myself and try to let go of the rest. Easier said than done sometimes.
Teka- glad you are seeing a GI doctor. Do you take the baby aspirin? My doctor put me on it a year or so ago due to stroke history in my family. I have worries about clots too.0 -

Jazzy I love that pic.
Happy belated birthday Lori--maybe u feel a little down cuz it's around u'r BD time and that happens when u go thru so much. And Fear just makes everything worse, but see u found some hppy times just watching nature.
Teka u really didn't eat beets did u? U'r not supposed to eat anything red--even jello a couple of days before that stuff--but I think u'r kidding/ When r u going to the gastr again, having another colonoscopy?
I'm sorry I'm mixed up being off for a couple of days, my comuter had this virus that was it bad shape and a couple of people looked at it and said forget it--it was ruined. I was so sad.So somehow, someway I sat here and fixed it, now I have to put in a homepage and all th little stuff it's like bare===My DD was shocked--so was I--cuz I have no idea what I did---but I did it--I put in my mind I was a hacker (my dream) and I just wet crazy on it it took about an hr. and there it was whew I was happy bout that. But my brain hurts now really. LOL

Cami- isn't that funny how that happens, that a person can fix something (without prior knowlege) and then not know how ya did it....rest that brain now. Are you feeling better?
Sunny day here in wisconsin but cold brrrrrrrr.
Had all my pre admission appts for my operation yesterday...everything good to go except my counts, so have to get labs again day before surgery, so I don't bleed like a stuck pig after surgery....Have a good day..0 -

"I don't know who all checks out the tnbc thread, but there is an excellent post fom inspired (Deb) about how to handle stress, fear and all the other crap we experience with this disease....

I could use some inspiration right about now.
Thanks0 -
Teka-I had diverticular disease for many yrs....then it went into remission.then the rads brought it back.mine was bad so I had the surgery in March....took out 12 inches of my intest....dont fool around with that...my dr. told me if i didnt have the surgery i would end up pooping in the bag....you dont want that..your dr.should tell u what to eat and what not to after the colonoscopy...I wish you the very best....
I am now the FIREKRACKER.0 -
Teka listen to Firecracker she's so right and she's been thru it. And ask the Dr. questions.
Lori thanks for asking, I feel about the same everyday--it doesn't change.
Bounce I'm sorry u;r having such sad feelings, I wish we could help.
OK now Lori remind me again please when is u''r surgery? And don't they give u something if they think u'r a bleeder???

Hi Ladies......some know me....many won't but I'm a throw over from a few other threads........I named Granny Firecracker, cause she is........will hang here cause I heard your a fun group....hello Cami.....Teka..and Firecracker.....let the fun commence......brought my Red Solo Cup.........lol0 -
Jazzy love that pic.
Oh ducky--Welcome with open arms--u didn't finish introducing u'rself==Ducky is the sexiest, smartest, prettiest and more she' tell u-- get used to her girls---she'll perk u up along with firecracker0 -
Well have patners family visiting and i am having to force myself to go out with them, just want to hide away, feel sooooo different and un relaxed.....also lots of **** going on as i left the animal charity as their priorities are all wrong, could not keep going on as the lone voice speaking up for dog welfare......etc etc, apparently its all my character and nothing to do with them .......of course....0 -
Feeling a bit like i will not be around for long anyway......tired, and very weary of constantly climbing the wall of trying to live a normal life when just everything is different most of all me.......and not in a way I like, cannot wait for next surgery as so fed up with a bulge under my arm all the time and constant hurting.......feel I have failed at life0 -
Cami, sweetie, should we tell them about my being a member of "you know what', or should we keep that between us.................lol.................thanks for the welcome.....love you girlfriend, and yes my partner in crime is the one who told me to come here........................
Lily.....not sure if we ever talked, but what your feeling is "nornal", well as normal as it can get..........for me its 2 1/2 years, and I still feel like life has left me a few miles behind............but I do the best I can.....I have said before..........surgery was the easiest part.............everything from there went down hill............Femara, aches, pains, new one each day..........when one lets up, another one takes its place............just hang in there, even a not great day, can be better then so many "not good days"............hugs.0 -
Ducky u can tell these gals anything --they are all wonderful.
Lily I don't like to hear u talk like that ---u didn't fail life--BC got in the way--and I hate to say this but it doesn't just leave like a cold or the flu--Most of us have been left with scars--not physical so much---but our bodies reacting to all the treatment and mentally just being tired and feeling lousy and I always feel that most people think oh when the treatments are done, I'll be fine--It doesn't make any difference what Stage u'r in it's all crap--This disease destroys so much of u and it's said the new normal-- well it's not new it usually crappy, but it might not last. It's so wonderful to hear how so many have treatments and fell better and better and go on like not much has happened. And we all love to hear that. But that's not always the case--u just learn to accept things differently. U'll be around and u'll see u WILL feel better. I still remember asking my surgeon after my 2nd operation will I ever feel better and he said u will, but who knows how much better--he gave it to me straight. So I do feel much better than that day for sure but feeling fine to me I don't remember but I'm doing OK and we all have our days of being sad. And if u'r not on an antidepressant please ask for one. Some people are not needing them and I think that's great but some doand if u'r on one then ask for more help. Always ask for help, it's available to you and we all take this differently--no right or wrong in this This is all about u. (((HUGS)))0 -
Meds are never good to me.................if there is a SE out there I will be the one to get it...........my friend just went on an anti-depressent, and has had not one friggin SE..................watch me..........I would go on it , and the shit would hit the fans............honestly, I think I could use one, but I'm actually afraid of a SE..............Provachol........SE........Letrozole, SE.............BP Meds.....SE.........even Nexium when I had refux...........SE............Can't take any of the pain killers after surgery, Vicodin, Morphine, Demerol........none of them.........after 3 days SE..........even Coedine..............so I am shit out of luck, but would love to try an SSRI............I hear they work great................maybe one day ...............0 -
