OMG This is impossible to keep up with. Whew I have to go by memory so here goes.
Phylogerm---Really and truly it might not be what u think, a few months back that happened to me and no one liked what they felt--well I like it_ but they took all these stupid tests and it was just nothing really--So keep u'r hopes u and u'r legs crossed for a change-(((HUGS)))
Netty I don't knw what to say sometimes our pains are real pains but they're ignored cu they don't think it's cancer, but I would want a test to to see what it is and maybe can b treated somehow. I can't believe they keep u hanging.
Oh I loved all the pics. and funnies--u know I'm a sucker for pics. But that spider was awful. and we call Phylo anything we feel like cuz she's that way.
BTW Chevy I'm lazy, u know that already--but I have been busy with calls and tests and today a Dr. app't this afternoon--But I'm fine
Farts OK let's talk--when I had one of my colonoscopies I was not put out (I chose that) so I was wide awake and as the Dr. started to get inside with his little camera I farted so loud--and I said I always wanted to do that to a man's face. What else could I say, right? So they're used to it.
Oh How I wish no one had pain, and worry it's awful.
OK I'm trying to keep on top (I like that best-oops) of everything but I'm still a little floopy. And I've been on the computer since 7:30 this morning, WTF no wonder I feel like my eyes are popping out. BBL

It is so good to see your posts Cami, we all were a little worried about you when you didn't post.
I'm trying to catch up from yesterday. My gosh Nettie, you have a really big yard. I understand why you have a lawnmower that you ride on now. I love the dogs that you are boarding.
The long nails on the Walmart lady, and the creepy scorpion are yucky freaky. I have big spiders, hawks, bunnies, snakes where I live, oh and of course, I have Walmart people at the local Walmart, but haven't spotted the cupcake long freaky nail lady yet. Thank goodness.
In your pocket Phgraham. So happy as well that Tang is back home healing. Hope all doc appointments go well for you Cami, and everyone else going thru pain. Nice to see 2nd posting, hope you are doing ok Maddy.
Hi sas and teka just in case you are lurking out there. Miss you both. So nice to see 2 cups of coffee this morning, thank you Goats and Smaarty.
Have a great day everyone. Hugs.....

Hi Girls!
I am 4 days and 5 pages behind! Just wanted to pop in and say HELLO! I hope everyone is having a great week. Half of my kids are safely at camp so it's quiet here but I am not getting near enough work done. Getting back to it but wanted you all to know you are always close to my heart even when I can't get here to post!

I hate it that my days and nights continue to be mixed up. I've been this way since reconstruction surgery in Dec. finally fall asleep around 3, dh alarm goes off at 530, I really rest after he leaves at 730 for a couple of hours.....but then I feel like the whole day is gone.

On another note... I went to my naturopath today - I don't go see him real often, and after today, I'm not sure if I'll go back. Anyway, I've been taking some Chinese herbs my acupuncturist gave me. He (the naturopath) told me to stop them as some of the herbs were phytoestrogens. Fine, I don't mind stopping those. However, he then told me to take 3 Tbs of ground flaxseed each day. So tonight I look up flaxseed, and it's a phytoestrogen - and according to a couple of websites, contra-indicated for ER+ cancer patients. Well, if I'm not supposed to take one pill because some of the stuff in it are phytoestrogens (he didn't tell me which things, and there's about twenty different herbs in the tablet) then why the HELL is he telling me in the next breath to take something else that is definitely also a phytoestrogen. I completely lost all faith in the guy. My husband has a lot of faith in him, but I haven't yet told him what I found - as he's asleep and I am obviously NOT. I'm awake and PO'd.

maybe your dh can take it so it won't be wasted and you can switch to the chia seeds. Was the naturopath selling the flax?
0 -
no - he just told me to take it. If he was selling it too, I'd probably be visiting him with a baseball bat.... (not really, but you know what I mean!) Thanks for saying something about the chia seeds - i'll take those instead.0 -
Beatmon, I totally can relate to the whole sleeping issue. it drives me absolutely nuts! I hate feeling like im wasting the whole day away becuz I have to take a nap due to the lack of sleep at night.
0 -
Just when I thought I might be able to check. Nope, not going to happen today. Hopefully, can get some sleep tonight.
Happy Wdnesday!

Although the 1st few days were a little rough, it's nice recovering from the flu...starting to enjoy lollygagging on the couch, reading, sleeping, eating soup, snuggling with my doggie. I've been sleeping on the couch so not to wake DH - my little kingdom :> DS has been waiting on me, but I don't think I can stretch this out much longer. Haven't had fever in > 24 hrs, ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine are doing their job. Maybe one more day???????? I have a book to finish.

Wow, everyone must be busy! I wasn't so far behind today!
I read where several of you are having sleep issues, well I've had them as well, it seems that my body doesn't want to sleep until it's time to get up, so I also find myself having to nap when I get home from work, which also steals away valuable time! But it is what it is! Hoping we can all find our way back to a normal sleep pattern!
That brings me to another thing that I've thought about mentioning several times, then forget when I start posting.... I've often wondered if this thread was started because of true insomnia, or was it because we wonder and worry at night when things are quite and still! Plus for me, it seems that aches and pains always rear there ugly head at night! Anyway, that is just my thought!
Happy Wednesday

No posting of our morning coffee today?? Where is everyone? Chevy i saw your post, are you disappearing into that rug? Gardengumby, my oncologist told me not to take flaxseed since my cancer was 100% estrogen positive. A nutritionist told me take Chia seeds...I always think of those cha cha cha chia commercials that come out around Christmas time.
)Off to work now....have a great day everyone. Hugs.....

Boy we are moving slow today, but I bet since I won't be able to be here much this afternoon, when I come back tonight, I will be pages behind! Hope everyone is just out and about enjoying the day!0 -
yes I was told not to take flaxseed for estrogen +.
I def hear ya about the sleeping. Every night no matter what time I lay down I am awake at 2:00 - 3:00 with no hope of getting back to sleep. Then in the quiet while my family sleeps my brain starts overtime - all the what if's, when kind questions - ugh. So by the time I am finally sleepy again dh and dss r getting up. Long Nap in the daytime feels like I have wasted the day. But I guess it is what it is for now.
Chevy - privates pole classes today ? Where is everybody.

thanks ladies. I won't be taking flaxseed, that's for sure!! I probably also won't be going back to that ND. we chose him because he was supposedly an expert on cancer. If that is his level of expertise he's no expert! I is still most definitely upset over the whole thing! They also drew my blood to test my thyroid, and I totally forgot to make sure that they would test the TSH. Ah well. I'll find out...

Hey gals! Sorry, I have been remiss in posting, but I have been so very-berry busy! Well no, not really but it sounded good........... I met my older friends for Breakfast, and it was soooooooo good as always.... We have the chili-relleno plate, with 2 eggs over easy, crispy fried potatoes with onions, and all smothered in their chile, served with 2 warm tortillas! We usually take 1/2 home, so I also have breakfast in the morningt.
Then we went up to play at the Casino.... and I didn't lost MY money.... Even had a Starbucks, and the time just flew. We left at 2.... so we aren't too serious when it comes to gambling. But it's fun to do something else, rather than walking around a store or mall!
Thank you Smarty! I LOVE the Chocolate Coke! You knew that, didn't you?

GardenGumby.... GG.... Littlegardens.... So we aren't supposed to use flax seed NOR chia seeds? But.... but I grind those things in my NutriBullet, and mix with my greens and things! I also love almonds.... But I have to use those seeds, because I HAVE them! I think if you over-due anything, it is not good!
Nettie, are you doing okay today?
And Littlepaws.... How are the furry kids? Maybe another picture? I just love your dogs! Okay.... I have to post this, or I will lose it!
