how about drinking?

Good Morning! Jazzy, best of luck with your thyroid. I had no idea BC and thyroid disease were related. ChiSandy, yikes! I cut my hand once cleaning up after Thanksgiving dinner. I thought it would never stop bleeding. I am one of the very few people in the world that does not care for avocados. It would terrify me to aim at my hand with a sharp knife!!!!
Radiation has been fine so far. Takes about 25 minutes once you are set up. I have had some ‘lite’ nausea. Not sure if that is adjusting to chemo or the radiation. I am doing next to nothing this week as I wait to feel the fatigue or any other side effects. Did get the ironing caught up and finished one book so far.
Still hot as HELL here. No rain either. I went outside about 9:30pm and it was miserable. Still hot and so very humid. I did have a couple of glasses of a very cold Pinot Grigio last night. Enjoyed watching a show on PBS, Family Pictures. People shared photos and told their family histories. There was also information about Durham, NC, Detroit, MI and southern Florida. I learned so much about those cities and how things changed over time. Also the diversity of areas and families.
Happy Hump Day to all!!!

Janky, I am stage 4, diagnosed de novo in Jan. 2018. My opinion for having a drink or two is that if I want it, I'll have it! However, I do have to consider whether I want Tylenol or alcohol on any given day. Usually the Tylenol wins.
Waving to all. I read this list once or twice a week but don't post much.

Yayyy the sun is shining brightly for a change and the weather is looking good today, hip, hip hooray. I did not know about the bc thyroid relationship either.
chi - I hope your thumb is feeling better, it is the throbbing that gets to me. I often slice myself, so DH got me a metal thread type glove to wear when preparing food - it is great when I remember to use it.
JCS - I never, ever liked avocado either, then when I realized (about 7 months ago) that it was a healthy fat to help absorb Ibrance, I started to eat a small bit with my pill, now I 'like' it, but it certainly is not a food I would ever be craving! I wish you speedy recovery from your treatment, with minimal SEs.
NM - I am sure Sadie is giving you 'what for' for your crazy schedule - I am sure you will figure out how to give her something extra special, more treats, snuggles, or extra outdoor time maybe?
Muddling - Thanks for feedback, I will continue with a bevvy when the time is right! I take Tylenol off and on for sore joints and muscles, am going to a Marijuana Doctor in October to see if cbd or something else will help, though I have heard it may not be suitable for patients with ER positive cancers...
Happy hump day to all, Cheers!

Mornin' ladies,
I honestly don't remember not being here yesterday, I thought I was.
Jazzy WTF is going on. I don't like to hear plans either, this is all wrong u've been doing so well please keep us on everything day to day. <<<HUGS>>>
Ah drinking, if I liked it I would definitely drink what I want. I've told u my sister <stage IV> drinks 1 to 2 glasses of wine every nite, more like 2 and she has all thse years. Why not, she enjoys it And when she's out she drinks an Arnold Palmer but with vodka, I think it's called a happy Arnold Palmer, but what do I know.
Yes Lori pic. came off I looked horrible and u know it. LOL
Muddlin is's nice to see u, even for a few lines.
JC it sounds like ur going thru a lot right now but know what to do, just relax with it that's about ll u can do.
Janky it's always nice to hear from u.
Illi r u sad right now???
Lest's face it Sandy, as soon as u said knife of any kind, we knew what the story was. I am so sorry but a spoon, LOL I always use a spoon anyway. U crack me up.
My niece picked me up yesterday for the Onc. Of course she remembered where it was. Oh yea we got lost anyway. But we were on time. I like these drs. now with testing in the office so I got a couple of tests but need to go to the hospital for more. But I told her I'm not concerned I just hate going for tests.Like everyone else. But now I have to go But there's Dan calling thinking I'll know something, he's so funny I told him I have more tests and until they are all done I know nothing. Poor guy he got all upset. I promised I will tell him anything as soon as I know.
Hoping everyone has a nice day and Kim ur starting to work hard again, but this time u like it, so it's all good.
LUBS U ALL

Nope, not sad, but getting really frustrated at the posts I keep losing. Did I seem down about something?
-
Yeah, I have a cut-proof glove...only remembered it afterward. D'OH!
Tonight was Cellars' St. Supery (Napa) wine pairing dinner. No, I did not exercise as much discipline as I should have--everything was just so delicious. Didn't see the vintages on the menu or wine labels, but in order of service we had: aperitif of Sauvignon Blanc (grown from a clone used at Chateau d'Yquem, the bouquet was just like that yummy Sauternes but taste was dry); with appetizer, unoaked Chardonnay; with gazpacho, a meritage-blend rosé; with a bruschetta, a soft finessed Cab. Sauvignon; with ribs, Merlot; and with dessert, sweet but not sugary Moscato.
I weigh in on Monday. I will have to muster all the discipline in me till then.
-

Sandy- St Supery is one of my fav wineries in Napa (been there too) and they have a delicious white meritage if you have not had it.
Cami- WTF is right! I am heading in for my medical apts today, eye surgeon first thing and going to get my cataract surgeries scheduled for this fall, and then thyroid US later today. I was thinking about my old endocrinologist who helped me with many things and she went out on her own to do concierge medicine a few years ago. I don't see her anymore but always said I would go for a consult with her if i needed her help again. Whatever i find out, I will get the report and go see her to see what she thinks about the nodule thingies.
More to follow ladies.....

Sandy, that is just how I take out an avacado pit, perhaps I should consider a spoon as well. Glad it only took 2 stitches.
NM, Sadie might not be too happy when you get home late, but she is quick to forgive. Surely you had a nice time with your women and wine group.
JCS, my DH doesn't like avacados either, in fact there are lots of things that he won't eat. Chicken, turkey, ham, ranch, sour cream, pork roast, most veggies, exception is corn and raw carrots, guacamole/avacados. That's most of them. Sorry about the nausea, hope it dimishes. I did not have nausea with rads.
Janky, the CBD should be fine, it's the THC that they are discovering that it may not be good for ER+. I did it for quite some time, but quit.
Cami, I did not think the picture was aweful, silly woman! And you better let us know about your tests too. I can just hear ED in regards to your kitty pole dance. I wish she would come and play with us.
Made it to Kanab. Taking a drive to Circleville to see Butch Cassidy's home and a scenic ride back. Too hot to do things outside!

Mornin ladies,.
Oh Illi I didn't want to make u sad, u just seem a little down on things. And I always think if u want to share I hope u do. And I know sometimes it's easy to be sad on any given day.
Well Sandy u really enjoyed some good food and drink. U very seldom do that so give urself a break.
Well I got tests back NO LEUKEMIA. I knew it but they had to prove it, but I had to LOL t Dan, he's so cute he prayed to Jesus and thanked him for good results. He is religious and told me never not tell him things cu e's the one who made me go to the Dr. ASAP <and he did> cuz he nagged me. So why do I feel this way. Hmmm a combination of all my meds pulls me down and that's the way it goes. I still have pain but nothing like before so they figure at least I can tolerate it now and that too makes me tired since it's been going on for a while. I have to say the Dr. was very niice when she called and sounded like she cared <she's usually very medicinal> She said <she called at night> as soon as she got the results she didn't want to wait to tell me, then she said altho u never seemed worried I was hahaha and then she said Dr. Moline cares so much for u she'll let her know right away. Maybe she was so nice cuz she likes Dr. Moline. who knows. After all this time it was the first time I really felt comfortable. OK that's done.
Kim isn't here today she had to be at work early. so....

Cami- that is very good news about not having leukemia. It is hard to wait on these results. Praying helps and we always pray for good outcomes. I keep you in my prayers always friend, and all those on these threads. The meds help us but also create other issues too.....
And the world is a heavy place sometimes. I understand your sadness friend.

Doctor visit #1 to the eye surgeon- things went well and she agreed leftie has gotten much worse as I had been observing. I now have a surgery date for Thursday 9/19. Will take 3-4 hours, go back the next day for a check in and then should be on my way. I will plan rightie once I am through the first. She is scheduling about a month out right now (vs. many months earlier this year), so I hope to do the second one by November.
Home working and off to get the thyroid thing checked next. Fingers crossed for maybe just a watch and see.
-
Cami, great news about not having leukemia! Are you gonna celebrate dancing around that stripper pole with the kitten in the GIF?
CBD is a bit more complicated for those of us on the aromatase inhibitor letrozole. My MO says that THC might promote ER+ tumor cell growth (while research indicates that it might cause death of hormone-negative cancer cells); while on paper CBD and letrozole both compete for the CYP450 liver enzyme pathway, moderate CBD use (as a pain reliever or sleep aid) has not been shown to either reduce or intensify the effectiveness of letrozole. Janky, IIRC you're in Canada--so CBD (and any kind of cannabis & its products) should be "available" for anyone old enough to buy it...unless your neck of Alberta has some restrictions and no recreational dispensaries.
Changed my bandage today--wound looks good, no sign of infection or further seepage. Was finally able to wash it. Used a smaller length of stretch tape today, wrapped looser. The throbbing is coming from the back of the thumb--where the lidocaine shots were given.
Made a veggie omelet today, this time wearing the kevlar glove on my L hand. Now I know why I hate using it: it's too long for my short fingers, while the thumb section was tight enough to cause friction over the bandage while putting it on. And the floppy fingertips kept getting in the way--thank goodness nobody was grading the uniformity of my dicing & slicing.

Good Morning, Loungettes! This Loungette is just a bit tired.Late day Tuesday, then Wednesday, Women and Wine get-together on Wednesday, long day yesterday (6:30 ayem to 3:30 peeyem) and I am feeling it! Gotta count up my hours and see how early I get out today. Sadie will like that, especially if the rain holds off and we can go swimming.
Morning, Mudding!
Janky--Sadie and I usually figure out a way to make things up to her. Often that includes extra petting and treats. She still cuddles with me at night, so I guess I'm still at least OK in her book!
Cammy Cat--going in for and then waiting for test results is the pits. Poor Dan must be coming apart at the seams! Praying for you.
Chi--the rose and moscato sound especially yummy!
Jazzy--glad you have someone to consult with that you really trust!
Goldie--the get-together was very nice, it always is. 10 of met at a member's home, each of us brought a wine to taste. And lots of muchies, too!
Cammy--YEAH for no leukemia! LOVE the DOTD!Thanks for covering for me!
Jazzy--good to have a plan to take care of cataract Leftie.
Chi--I've wondered about those gloves, if they fit well or were more of a pain.Guess I'll continue to pass on those!

Mornin' ladies,
Jazzy did I read that right, 3-4 hours for one eye surgery. I didn't know it would take that long. No wonder why u have to wait til it really heals before the next one. Before u know it it will be time to do it.
Sandy when u get a cut u really get a cut. I have no idea what gloves ur talking about but sounds a little troublesome, but sounds like u need them tho.
Kim good thing u get to leave a little early today. I know the last couple of days u've been pushing it a little. But being Friday that always help. Sadie is waiting.
Oh Dan is much better now, Jeez I had to take care of him, he's been a basket case the last couple of weeks. I really thought since it didn't bother me he'd be the same way. I had to comfort him daily, I didn't mean to scare him and I'm glad he's so religious cuz he did a lot of praying, more than I did. LOL It's really nice not working full time, I enjoy it much better.
Weather looks like rain here, but I haven't heard much about it, but its probably time for some anyway. I had some groceries delivered yesterday. My kids don't usually go to this store so I got to order some things I never get. Oh I actually ordered lobster and shrimp salad pretty good for something I haven't liked in years.
Everyone have a great Friday.

Well ladies, no call yet but I found the report on the X-ray patient portal this afternoon. The radiology center found three nodules in my thyroid with the US, 2 which are considered "moderately suspicious" and will need to be biopsied with needle aspiration. I expect I will get a call today on that to get it scheduled for next week. At least I will be ready.
Having a wand pushed in to your throat is not much fun, but can't even imagine what a needle is going to feel like. So down the path we continue on this unexpected finding.....
-
I survived my week of radiation! Met with the RO yesterday. He feels things have gone well. It was a very small spot that they were successful in radiating. Unless something new pops up, I am done with that department. Was able to get my chemo infusion today as well. I did not get the Neulasta patch. Seems the RO and the MO agreethat radiation hinders the patch medication making it ineffective. The difficulty now is keep myself infection free for 10 days. I will hibernate and use sanitizer when necessary! Hopefully all this will keep me on track for further infusions the end of this month. Seems like if it is not one thing it is another.
Jazzy — Fingers crossed your results are clear. The needle certainly does not sound like fun.
Cami — So glad all is well with you, too. I think often the people around us panic more than we do. The lack of control about this roller coaster makes one crazy.
Sounds like everyone is gearing up for a wonderful weekend. Hope everyone gets to do what they want and has fun doing it!
Take care all!!!

Good Morning, Loungettes!Happy Saturday! Sadie is a bit miffed with me just now. I went to work yesterday thinking that I would be coming home around lunch time. The Imp of the Perverse had other ideas. I walked in to 2 resident crises going on--one resident was actively violent, swinging at staff and other residents, had pulled the fire alarm, threw coffee on the floor and was parked in the hallway right where everyone had to go past to go to the dining room for breakfast, telling everyone the staff was poisoning the food and coffee. I took on that situation since I wasn't wearing scrubs, could take off my name badge and not trigger a bigger reaction. I was able to keep that situation from getting worse and keep anyone from getting hurt until a person the resident trusted was able to come in. So, step back, take a sip of coffee, check in with the charge nurse and get her updated, and I find out that there have been 3 call-outs and 1 no show for the day shift! My nursing home has 2 units, one for Skilled Rehab care, and one for long term or residential care, with a sub-unit for memory care. I took over the Memory Care Unit for the day, so the assigned Charge Nurse and Med Tech could stay out where the resident in crisis was and keep an eye on things there (the Memory Care unit is a "locked" unit, and out of visual sight of the rest of the Long Term Care unit). I had forgotten what it was like to give all the medications and treatments and monitor all the goings on with the constant interruptions that happen!So I ended up getting done about 4 peeyem, and was totally drained when I got home. I sat down with a nice coconut water Rum and pineapple juice drink and promptly fell asleep in the recliner! Sadie woke me up after drinking half my drink, cuz she wanted to me to make more since she couldn't reach past the ice cubes to get at what was left! We went to bed early, and Sadie punished me some more by making be get up at 6:30 when I really wanted to sleep some more. Now, of course, it's an hour or so later, I'm up, she's sleeping on the ottoman. And snoring to make sure I know she's sleeping!
Jazzy--good heavens, not something I would look forward to at all!I would hope the needle biopsy would be less uncomfortable than having a wand shoved down the throat, unless they do that during the needle biopsy, too? YIKES!
Librarian--glad to hear the rads went well foryou! Hibernation and Hand sanitizer sounds like a good plan! Maybe add in some sanitizing wipes and use them to open doors and turn lights on and off, and to wipe down the phone and computer/laptop keyboard?

Mornin' ladies,
Oh Jazzy more crap ur into. After all u did for urself this summer which is a good sign for them chasing their take and everything will be fine. But u know they have to do what they have to do. <<<PRAYERS>>> a few extra coming ur way.
JC again I'm confused. OK now u finished one week of rads <YAY BTW> how many more do u have to go??? How much longer with the chemo. Again ur posts sound like ur doing OK.
Another quiet day around here.
I got a call from the guy at work who does the phones and he wasn't sure what to do cuz Bob <one of my luvs> ex FIL passed away and he was kind of afraid to call him. Bob scares everyone the ASS. So I told him I would, he told me not to cuz Bob was in a bad mood. Well I called him anyway and we talked about 1/2 hr. It's his DD grandfather and he liked him but as usual people are arguing how disgusting to me.. Well this is why I luv him, first he's trying to calm the situation then he tells me if u need anything u call me, I'll be right there. And I talked to Dan and he had to go to meet and greet nite for his oldest and told me he'd be over late. I told him forget it he should just stay with his family. Then he said but I promised u a fish sandwich, but I cancelled that. See again why I luv them. I know that was boring for u but no one else is saying much so I'll be more than happy to bore all of u. That's my gift in life.
OH OH FF has pneumonia, he's in the hospital. Oh I know he'll be fine people like that don;'t get that sick very long.When I had it he's the one that said oh they'll just give u an anti-b for a day and u'l be home, no big deal... I was in ICU and ended up in for a week but it was no big deal to him. Oh I wish I liked him really, but I just can't.
OK have a good day.

Sunny Saturday so far here in 'sunny' Alberta - let's see how long it lasts! Outdoor at the parl, birthday party today, let's hope it stays nice...I have been trying to clean out my vehicle from last week's Antique Show, but have no get up and go at all, so poking along like a turtle, eventually I will 'win'.
NM - OMG - what a way to end your week! I am sure Sadie will remind you that you were 'neglecting' her - hopefully the weekend will be filled with things that you both enjoy,
chi - I am in an area where cannabis et al are legal, but I have no idea how to go about it - I do have an appointment October 8 to see a doctor and will go over things then. In the meantime my left shoulder/neck area is brutally sore, so I may just apply some topical cbd cream sold by a local Farmer's Market. Glad to hear the thumb throbbing is subsiding.
cami, jazzy, goldie, illi, jcs, - helloooooooooooooo have a great weekend, relax and enjoy. Cheers!

Jazzy, gorgeous pix! And in your pocket for the needle biopsy--may they numb your pharynx six ways from Sunday (the topical stuff's pretty effective because it penetrates the mucosa). Can they guide it by ultrasound or x-ray/CT, or will they have to 'scope you? Just curious.
Cami, the "cut-proof" glove is on various cooking supply websites (Willams-Sonoma, Sur La Table, etc.) as well as Amazon. Some are actually like very fine chain mail, some Kevlar (like that as-seen-on-TV "Ove Glove")

Good afternoon ladies- hope everyone is doing well on this middle of the month, coming in to the end of summer weekend. Kids back to school here this week, university starting up next week. It's been a good summer overall, and look forward to one more concert in Santa Fe over Labor Day.
Thanks for bearing with me this week. I got pretty blind sighted by the news on Monday about the thyroid, because I had gotten a letter in the mail that said everything was good on the mammo and MRI for the breast findings. So I went in thinking I was going to get a rubber stamp on Monday with that visit, and then go on to my eye stuff, but then the question about doing the US came up and thought "why do I need a US now with an MRI?" Well, the tech was not too clear about that until I sat with the BS to discuss the imaging results and she mentioned the activity seen on the thyroid, and I needed a US for that. So I got that done Thursday, and was told they would call with results by the next day, but decided to NOT wait this time and went to read the report on line yesterday. That is where I found the detailed report with a discussion of 3 nodules, two larger than 1 cm that should be biopsied. There is nothing on the portal that says my biopsy is scheduled, the US was already scheduled without discussion. So now I will be ready when they do call.
I have done some research on the thyroid beyond what I shared with you about the connection between BC and thyroids cancers. Beside the low possibility of a bc met, and of course, the possibility of cancer from rads (mine was internal and low dose), there is a scoring for the nodules based on 1 to greater than 7. Things between 1-3 are low risk, 4-7 some suspicion of cancer, and above 7, high suspicion of cancer. Mine is at a 5 which is moderate suspicion and it sounds like if they are big enough to biopsy, they do. But my other thought was, I had those images done a month ago, if someone was really worried, they usually call to get you in right away to get a biopsy. I have been in places where I had to go within a few days (like last year) and other times, it took a month to get one. So we will see.
Shifting gears to more interesting topics, I am working on getting caught up from being away last weekend and also doing a face lift of my gardens and pots with some fall things. Starting to cool down and the morning and evenings are lovely.
I appreciate all your support and will keep you updated on anything newsworthy,but hope your day is good and that you also have a funday Sunday, as NM would say!

Hello to everyone! I thought about this group last night when I had to pick my cocktail with former coworkers, a large strawberry margarita 🤪
Sending you good vibes and luck Jazzy.

Good Morning, Loungettes! Wow, I really got lazy yesterday, never even visited the Lounge!The picnic was cancelled due to rain and illness, so Sadie and I had a very laid-back day. I never even got dressed! It was pretty dreary until late in the peeyem. Even Sadie wasn't very active but was content to lay on the ottoman and get regular petting and tummy tickles. I think she's forgiven me for the long hours last week. This week the only long day will be Wednesday, and I may take her in to work with me on Friday, so that will make up for it.
Cammy Cat--there always seems to be one person in a work setting that everyone is afraid of bothering! It's sad how people argue after a death. Just sad. Dan really does take good care of you! Of course FF will throw off a case of pneumonia like it's nothing. So not fair.
Janky--Slow and steady wins the race!Keep turtling along, you'll get there! Celebrate progress!
Jazzy--that hummingbird photo is FANTASTIC!You should enter that one in a contest! Love the Bucket List Rainbow Ryders!
Chi--I've seen the chain mail type gloves, often wondered how they fit since they don't seem to b sold in sizes.
Jazzy--It's confusing the way some things are jumped on ASAP and other drag on and on. What bothers me most is when they say that I'll get a call in a certain time frame and it doesn't happen. I have mixed feelings about tests being scheduled before the person is told about it, what if the person doesn't want the test? Or needs time to get insurance authorization? Or wants time to research? Medicine is getting more and more run by computer programs and less and less human.
Illi--that margarita looks wonderful! I bet it was delicious.
DOTD is Illi's Strawberry Margarita, it looks so good!

I'm home! Had a nice time and got me a new picture with Darby Hinton (Israel from the Daniel Boone show) On the way home we thought we saw lots of haze in the air, turned out to be smoke, and a lot of it. Looked online, and it seems there are lots of fires right now in Utah. Also drove through Best Friends, it's a no kill animal shelter that has the most beautiful cemeteries for animals buried there, with lots of sitting areas, pathways and huge wind chimes. I'll post pictures once we get our internet fixed, which has been down for over a week. We are having to use a hot spot from our phone, which uses up data very fast.
Cami, so glad to hear you don't have Leukemia. I know you/we don't like FF, but I do hope he recovers.
Jazzy, still thinking and praying for you that all turns ok with the thyroid. Do you think we can still get together one weekend day? We can play it by ear since you still have the cataract issue to deal with as well. I too love the hummingbird picture.
Just a small post, DH has derm appt. today, scraping of a suspicious spot on his head, which will be an on going thing for him.
