    have to get my ^$%&*#$* whining out of the way....  went to an oncologist/obgyn today & will be neutered - ah, have a complete hysterectomy the 15th.  oh happy day - NOT.  it will be laparoscopic/Da Vinci procedure (had to look that one up).  it will be an overnight in the hospital & i'll probably be awake all night listening to an audio book as i can't relax in a hospital for some crazy reason (probably because of past experiences)....  not looking forward to it but will be glad to get it out of the way so i can go on to something else to worry about.  any night owls are welcome to come with me in spirit - i'll sneak in the m&ms - they won't melt.

    I was so glad to hve it done, just not to have a period no other reason and it was an easy one--so that's good. Now mostly mom do u feel bad about it? If u do I am so sorry that it has to be done---and don't try to sleep in the bed-ask for a recliner it's much more comfortable and they put pads on it and u can read, doze off and relax muxh more than a hospital bed really--To me the beds are brutal and the chairs are so easy to get up from too and it doesn't really hurt, just uncomfortable----we're here for u.

    Bang, boom, crack---and gD wiping her little nose is so cute.

    Phylocompletepill u sound pretty good today. Stil a good day.

    Hey WTF everybody has Ice cream and u'r all skinny--I hate u all--figuratively And now that Blondie has her car and it stays light later vroom vroom--she'll be flying all over the place. I'm going to be alone taking care of my cat and dog for 4 days--no car--nothing. I really am not happy about this but they never go anywhere so they need to. I know--I could go to my other DD's on the 4th but let's face it no one will be sober enough to drive me home for the dog and I can't bring the dog--she has 2 cats, and a very dominating Dog--so and if I need something fast or whatever I have 2 nieces that live about 5-10 minutes from here.

    GrammieFoley...I just hope you are feeling better today...  When you are really down, that's when you can come back here, and just talk to us.  We might not be able to help you physically, at least I REALLY can't, but maybe kicking it around awhile with us will just make you feel a little better?

     

    Phyllicrap-shoot!  You are going to live?  You had BETTER!   Does the chemo get worse each time that you go?  Man, I know NOTHING about THAT one!  Or is it the type of thunder-juice that they give you?

     

    Sassywiththeinfo!  I read  and pondered, and looked up each link, and thank you so much for putting it all out there.

    Yes, for me, and my whole family, they have helped, and removed wax, and we have been doing this probably since 1990. 

     

    I can see how anyone could have a problem with a flame, same as standing too close to a flame of any sort.  But when you do it correctly, the end of the candle is no-where near any part of you.  The foil covered paper plate, with a hole in the center is where the candle is inserted.   And with a mirror, (if doing it alone) or when someone tells you that it is "done" you then take it out and put it in a bowl of water, or with me, I just put it in the sink, and run water over the 4" that are left.

     

    It is just so much easier to remove the wax from my ear this way, instead of the softening, as with Debrox, etc. and then flushing. 

     

    When I first TRIED this, after being told that I had too much wax, I did as directions said, and THEN I couldn't hear at all!   I think all the flushing moved it around, and closed up EVERYthing.....  And nothing came out! 

     

    So then I went back to my ear candles...  The wax DID come out, as it always does.  But I never dreamed just how MUCH wax was coming out!  The first candle got the normal amount of wax out... but I still couldn't hear...  I was getting afraid.  I used another one, and even more came out.... but when I tipped my head, I could hear for a second....!  Then it closed up again.  So I tried another one.... THIS time I could hear a slight "crackling" sound, and I thought, IT'S WORKING!....  Still more wax!  I am not only full of schnitzel, I am full of WAX!    THIS time my ear stayed open all day!  But when I would go to bed, and wake up in the mornings, nothing!  

     

    Eventually I used 8 candles in about 2 1/2 weeks? And every time I use one in my right ear especially, there is STILL more wax, but at least I can hear.

     

    I know I could go to my Docs, and she would flush my ears, but when I did it myself, it hurt, and made one ache for about an hour....  So if this works, why not? 

     

    I know I'll always have to wear hearing aids, but when even THAT didn't work in my right ear, you think WTF???   And when I kept using the ear candles, and it made a difference, I KNEW that I still had wax in there.  I could hear for a minute, then like a door closing, it was gone!  Then awhile later, I could HEAR....!  Same thing... it closed off.

     

    But now my ear stays open!  And I can hear my normal 50% with my aids in my right ear!  I have "profound hearing loss in my left, but only 50% loss in my right"...  So that's what the aids are for.

     

    Okay, I promise I won't talk about this again...  But maybe this could help someone else???  I could make this my dissertation if I ever apply for a job as an audiologist?  Ha, ha! 

     

    Teka!  So this means when you go on vacation you have to leave us TOO?   

     

    Cammi you little shit!  You are soooooo funny!    And you "pondered?"  (snicker-snort!)  Hah!   Yes, I'll bet Marywiththeporch is getting excited by now!  Ya' think?

    And I don't have a CLUE, WHAT you mean when you say "my pin is coming out of my eyeballs, and blah-blah"!!!!  You mean your pin number?  WHAT the hell are you talking about?   A safety-pin?  What are you even DOING with something sharp around you?  You are going to wind up with Phylliintheclink if you don't watch out!

     

    So miss Phyliintheasylem!  Yes, what would we do without YOU?  You are one of our dearest instigators!  Your post was so funny!  Who wrote it?

     

    Morning Shells!   Yes!  Anything in my ear!  Sometimes it would itch so bad I wanted a long-handled Phillips screw-driver to scratch it!  I read that is from wax being impacted...  SEE?  Maybe that would work too, Ha!    Congratulations on almost being done with your schooling!  We will have a party for you... and serve punch. 

    (you don't believe THAT one, do you?)  Plain punch?  Not a chance!  We will make a fountain of champagne!  I saw that once! 

     

    Yes, wish Ducky would come back again!  She is worse than me, even!

     

    So Peanutbuttergoats!  You WHAT?  You bought a planner?  And I suppose all your jars and cans are faced in the cupboard?   And you have labels on your drawers?   Actually I do some of that! 

     

    Cammi!  You called Phylli that WORD?  Oh, she is coming after you!   She can open a safe with her acrylic nails, I'll bet!   And you told Teka you are sane?   Under what pre-text?  I mean on which day of the week?

     

    Take care Beatmon! 

     

    Yes Teka, I am coming after ALL of you hooligans with my candles!

     

    Cammi!  No, I think possibly this time, maybe you are wrong!  Candling originated millions of years ago with whoever was around at that time!  Maybe the cave-men...and women!  See, they wanted to see who could come up with the craziest use for fire!  So that's how candling was invented!  

     

    Chickagonelongerthanusual!  Would YOU hurry up and come back? 

    I need you here, to straighten out these weaker hooligans!  Okay, go back to bed!    Drink a chocolate coke first.... and eat some gold-fish.

     

    Man, this is loooooong.  Maybe I can take up a whole page for myself? Okay Shells.... Thanks.... I washed my hands, and did apply the cream, and didn't put gloves on....  I can only use it once a day, but in-between times, I use the creams with urea in them... No more new blisters!!!

    Good luck with your interviews! 

     

    Mostlymom!  Dang!  I was neutered too!  Just think!  No more periods!  I'll come with you to the hospital.... warn them.   So they are taking out the baby-carriage, but leaving the play-pen.  Think of it that way.

     

    I've reached the end of the page....  I've almost reached the end of my rope!  Ha, ha.... just kidding!  Love you gals!  xoxoxo

    Good Morning all--Happy 4th of July--I can't get my picture printed without the whole board going crazy so I keep on deleted it.  Oh well--so I'll just say it, Oh I did. OK My computer has a different look ??? It does this every so often so I'll fix it later. I let the dog out early and got an early start, but then I started watching a movie and fell back to sleep--so it's sunny and nice out and I have things open for some air and of course I have a blanket around me--I still think I'm sorry mom for making fun of u--- she was always cold--but she was much older than I am--so I don't get it.

    I hope everyone feels good today and has a good Celebration. I'll be happy if the dog stops crying--my katie-kat of course is mine so she happy--she not thrilled with me giving our dog so much attention, but she;s dealing with it--OK I'll BBL

    Well its sunny here for the first time in days and days, but being behind my own private bug bars, it really doesnt matter too much...Got an appointment fri. with an allergist...oh yipee-another dr. another med. but hopefully they will give me some answers. Was supposed to have gs for the day today, but other grandma wanted to take him to the 4th of July fair so I gave inCry. She doesnt get to see him too much because of problems with her ass-wipe son. (my ex-sil). So have to figure out something exciting to do. Youngest ds has a new girlfriend, so hes out of our hair....maybe we'll go to the movies, or out looking for NEW PORCH FURNITURE. Yay!!!!!Spending money you shouldnt is so much fun!!!!!!!!!xoxo

    Good morning all of you beautiful STFU-ers!  (pronounced stoofoo)  Haha, I made up the pronunciation part.  Could you tell?  I don't have anything to say so I'll just say it!  Cami, did you hear that?

    It's a beautiful morning here with bright sunshine and a little breeze floating my flag around.  Temp is supposed to reached 94 today.  Not bad!

    I've been reading patriotic quotes today.  Some of them make me so sad.  Others make me happy that I was born here.  I was LUCKY enough to have been born here so I personally never had to fight to leave another country, leave my family behind, never had to fight to get here, never had to fight to be accepted.  My ancestors did that for me.  It doesn't make me better than anyone else in the world, it makes me LUCKY.  Particularly today, I want to keep in my heart the struggles of the people in Egypt and Syria who are demonstrating and fighting for their rights.  And keep in mind all of the millions of others that lost that struggle and so would like to join us here and how we can make that work.

    I think today, in order to wave my patriotic flag, I will watch the 7 part John Adams mini-series.  It's an amazing look at how we got here!  Or Fried Green Tomatoes, because I love it.  Or The Secret Life of Bees, because I love it!  Or all of them, because I'm a glutton!  Wait....I mean because I'm free to choose what I do today!  I hope this wasn't too political because I only mean it to be patriotic and the two are different things. (Hear that NSA?)

    I realize I'm also LUCKY to have met ALL of you wonderful people here.  Yippie! 

    Whew! My Photoshop Elements finished downloading.  I can also play with it! Again LUCK!! because I have no idea what I'm doing.

    Love you all

    Teka,Smileglad you came, I would have never said your name, accept to everyone here, just kidding. I love this group b/c they accept weird thoughts to be discussed. I sent my PM about candling at 11:13 pm last night , since your are something in medical field would have liked an opinion. I knew you were on the 12 mn deadline. OH well. Shit you would have been right at home , last post you used Damn. STFU that works here LOL. Would have liked to have known how and why and what AND how and why and what you can leave BCO at the stroke of MN July 4th, which the way you wrote it implies you have done this before Wierd and curious.

    Ckickapainsomuch, so sorry, call when the roids kick in, so I can give you my soapbox talk about fentanyl, Littlegoats may suggest something used in palliative care too. Let the Wolf Spirit protect you, might as well throw in the indian way too.

    Littlegoats would you give a bit of an explanation of how we can use palliative care concepts to improve the chemo aftermath bombing.

    Blondie your roids should have kicked in, hope you got what you wanted yesterday, you deserve something to be better. (just saw you posted)

    Shellshiner I LOVE THE WAY you put things in perspective :)

    Phyllymissyou, I was getting used to our daily talks, they were fun, twoyakkers. I had to force myself not to call you....Ha how's that, your habituating :)

    Chevy, glad you were happy with the stuff. I'm mad at the government. If they committed fraud on this, what else have they fraudlently done. I say fraud b/c they had to be so careful how they did the linking. An effectual i.e.stupid person would have messed up the sequencing. Chevy, what should be done is an analysis of what's in the candle at the end, we all what at least one of the CSI shows, a Mass Spectrometer would show components. I know you are describing something. What the something really is we don't know b/c we now know, no good research has been done. I know the only time I had it done, I too had something happen. It was right up there with the worst ear ache I've ever had. The pain/pressure was relieved, I was driving home from the EITHER ER OR ENT's office(old one not new master), and nothing could be done. At least now you can say to someone i.e like me, if they try to debunk candling, you can talk there EARs off.LOL :)

    Sass!  WHAT the hell are you doing?    NOW you sound like me.... scary, isn't it?  So is Teka just like you? 

    And little Jackie!  She sent me a picture!  That picture was for ME.... Do don't anyone else look at it!  We have been talking together now for about 3 years....Even SHE is younger than I!    Happy 4th of July to you too!  My Birthday is the 31st, so I'll expect lots of expensive presents from ALL of you, Ha! 

    I'm making spaghetti sauce with sausage from Polidori's!  It SHOULD be tasty, even though it is made by this wild- Irshman~!  DH likes it with those little gnocci's, but I like mine with vermicelli!  Whatever.

    You can ALL come for dinner!  I'll even show you the in's and out's of candeling!  Wink

    Sass, what comes out in the candle IS ear wax!  It is not white, or cream colored, it is WAX!  And when it is "warm" it is softer, then hardens!  Just like wax, because it IS wax.  And I can hear, because the wax is gone!  It is history, it is fin-oot, (Italian for finished) and it is not there.... It is OUT where it should be. 

    The candles work....  So when you all come over for dinner, I will SHOW you how the damn candles work!     Then you will say THANK you miss know-it-all!  You were RIGHT.... this time!   

    THEN I will put Turpentine on all your warts, boils, unwanted lumps, just like my GRANDMA did!     And I will show you how to scrape your bare-feet on the side-walk, to remove those callouses  inSTEAD of buying those egg-things! 

    Sheesh!  You guys are going to take a lot of work to get you into shape!

    Happy 4th of July, everyone!! IllinoisLady you are welcome anytime. Thanks for the posting.

    I just read the entire Declaration of Independence..knew the first few lines my heart but never read the whole document. Thank you to all ancestors who gave their all.



    Although it may not seem like a big deal with all that our chemo gals and mostlymom are facing, I just finished 1year of Arimidex.. Four more to go. Picked July 4th to start, so when I finish, I can really celebrate Independence Day!



    DH came home yesterday. He is out getting fireworks. Just a big boy!



    Hope all have a safe holiday.

    Chevette, I believe you have wax. Was there any light inspection right before the Candeling. If wax present immediately verifiably before C went in , then gone, then analysed, --that validates the process. I don't know what's up, but something is. It could be exactly as you say which is a THEORY. You know something is going on, oh  here we go, your hypothesis it is wax, candle in ear, no wax, wax debris in candle, debris has wax. But it has tto be proved. I 100% believe your hearing was better, b/c I experienced somewhat the same with the ear ache change. Could be any number of variables.

    Getting a study done should be up to NCCAM by a grant. But NCCAM already is involved in a FRAUD, or did't realize they were, which means, that the people charged to get these studies done are bollicking, stupid.

    The next concern is that when NCCAM was started, the whole complimentary and alternative community, had hopes that now there a was a way for testing things. I am C&A in somethings and was excited. This one thing, one thing in falsifying candling --- what have they done with all the other things that crossed their desk for testing. CHIT.

    Chevy you said, you read the whole thing and links. Do you see where the information doesn't chive?

    Ah ---it is really out of the bag.  Yes, Chevy and I have been writing for quite some time now.  I depend on her to hold me up and give me sage advice.   I have this thread in my favorites and did it after she told me she posted here.  I'm way behind in reading though. 

    I am going to be 68 my birthday in Sept. but in reality I don't feel anywhere near that age.  Oh, I do have some issues.....left over ft. neuropathy, lots of stiff days ( I blame it on Anastrozole ) but just thinking it could as easily be a rough life and age too. 

    Anyway....thanks for letting me put that in and pay a little tribute to Sassy Chevy at the same time.  I love being an American all mixed up with Indian, German, Dutch, English, and lordy who knows what else.  So many of us really are the world. 

    Hope you are all having a really wonderful 4th. 

    Peace and love,

    You are a Trooper! I hope they gave you new trooper boots! And maybe a gun! Maybe a Paintball Gun! That would be SO exciting.
