    I am not sure about Idol?  I thought of that earlier.  I bet it is!  I missed Medium last night...cause the President was on!  How dare he..haha.

    Sue, this is a good shop..she has so much, and nice stuff too!  I take our clothes there.  We make a little money that way. She carries from infant to adults.  I am sure I will find a few blouses there..very cheap!  I don't have many blouses, esp. that fit me.  I never really liked buying them..cause of my D-cup's, they always gapped!

    To all my sweet, sleeping (hopefully) sisters, it's 3.30pm here and I have finally found the time to get to my computer.

    Karen, I am thinking of you and so sorry you have this additional worry about your lungs. It's not fair that you should have this burden on top of everything else.

    Hi Sue, please don't feel bad about eating. You can always lose it later - you are young and it's easier to lose than when you are older like me.

    What a beautiful prayer Melody - you are such a comforting and loving presence here. 

    Lisa - Monday the 4th of Feb - it will soon be over and you can begin healing and looking more beautiful. Will be thinking of you over the next few days.

    I love charity shops too. I worked in one last year - just for one afternoon each week and I got some fantastic clothes - really good quality and they seemed to have hardly been worn at all. It's such a buzz to get something nice for just 2 or 3 dollars.

    Hi to Val, Ulla (so glad you are feeling a bit better!), Tender, Valsul, Cyndy, Angie, Hawkwoman, Lucy, Shirlann & Sheila. 

    Hugs to all,

    jane. xxx

    I have no idea what conversation to join. Will somebody help me? I am a 58yr old grandmother having breast pain..an aching/burning sensation in L. breast. I've had normal mamograms until the last one a few years ago.  I lost my job and insurance in May last year (2007) when I left my job to help care for my mom in hospice.  She died last month on Dec 10.  I've been looking for a job again and trying to deny this pain, the hot flashes, etc.  Alas! I hope it's not too late.  I've been on hormone therapy (Premarin) since 1990 when I had complete hysterectemy after long history of gyn probs, including 2 Class III pap smears, a few surgeries for benign tumors, etc.  I never had any probs with my breast, although had to have a needle biopsy (negative) about 10 years ago after my breast started getting more dense.  I took my Premarin until Oct, 2007 when my last rx ran out. Within a month, I started persistent and severe hot flashing. My sister gave me some Premarin (a lower dose than I was taking) and I started taking one a day in late Nov. 07. I started having pain last month (early Jan, 2008), although the hot flashing has continued. What do I do? I can't afford a mamogram. Have no idea what to do or who to talk to. So afraid. This website discusses cysts and pray maybe that's what this is, but where do I start? A clinic or hospital?  Any insight about my pain and how to get diagnosed with no insurance appreciated.

    Sorry you are in a pickle Nancy, I am in the UK and am not at all sure how your country works when it comes to medical things?



    Surely there must be a way around it? are there not any free places at all?

    Im sure one of the women here can help though, you didn't say, have you felt a lump at all?



    There is a section on this site called 'Not diagnosed but worried' maybe they could shed some light?



    Thinking of you

    Good morning sisters!

    Just a quick hello, I need to give myself extra time to drive to work...the winds are gusting at almost 50mph!!!!!!!  What a night...heard them all night long!  Mel...did you get lots of snow with the wind?  I see that your schools are closed today.

    I still can't get the pics you post.  The candle is that silly photobucket symbol??

    I missed AI last nt!Cry

    Lucy...great idea...we could write a book!  Get the publisher lined up...

    Check with you all when I have time at work!!

    xoxo

    Lisa, My PS said that he likes at least 4 weeks from nipple to tattoo to allow the nipple to heal completely. I had the nipples done Dec 20 (for my anniversary and just before Christmas) and tattoos originally scheduled for Jan 29 but changed to Feb 6.

    My whole time line went like this, June 1 surgery with implants, fills through middle of August, 4 week wait, back in Sept for one more 60cc fill (I wanted a little bit more Embarassed), exchange Nov 2, nipples Dec 20, tattoos Feb 6. I am close to the same size I was before on my big boob (I had one a-cup and one b-cup).

    I read the book "Why I wore Lipstick to my Mastectomy" prior to my surgery and during my recovery. It is a good uplifting book.

    Lucy, thx for your reply. you're so sweet. i'm thankful somebody responded and when I looked for a conversation to join, i didn't see the one "worried/undiagnosed it sounds like a good one. Your picture reminds me of my daughter (and) "Lucy" was the name of my sweet cat/companion of 17 years. She was predeceased by "Ethyl" some years ago.  I had to finally have Lucy euthanized last year for kidney problems . I lost my job, my insurance and then Mom last year. Maybe your response just a  little serendipity, but hope there's an underlying message of hope that I'll find helpful insight at this site. No lumps, although that's why my doctor ordered the needle biopsy..it was negative..although my breasts have clearly gotten dense over the years. I've always done regular exams in the shower.  I'm just having this pain in my breast...and pain from fear..which has been lessened by your taking the time to chat with me.  I haven't mentioned this to my daughter as she's in Texas with her husband and my two grandsons and don't want to alarm her...til it's necessary. Thanks so much, Lucy. I'll add a comment to the "worried" link.   Fond regards, Nancy

    Sue, You broke down, because you hate going to that place. I understand.  The people there understand. So, you should find out by Monday, about your scan?

    You should be eating and sleeping Sue...that is what your body needs!! Don't beat yourself up over that!

    Ulla, we have all gained weight from the chemo! We will all encourage one another to loose it.  Your taste buds will start returning soon.  They really do go back to normal.  I thought at one time, that they may never, but they did!!

    I am glad you had a visit with your nice Swedish lady.  I bet she just LOVES when you come in!

    Hi SueSmile! I would think you could call your doc for your test results. Did your onc order the test? If he did then you should call him. But they shouldn't keep you waiting. They should call as soon as they know. I think they should tell us right away instead of making us wait.I hate , hate , hate waiting for results.You're off tomorrow aren't you Sue? Try and get some sleep.xxxx

    Ulla , so glad you got to visit with your friend. It will get better. And believe me , we all got weight to lose! But , yes , we can do it together.

    Scarlets the only one I know who could make a dress out of a pair of curtains and look that beautiful!lol

    Hi Lisa , hope your having a good evening. Are you still at work? We didn't get alot of snow , but boy , it sure is windy. A tree fell on my bosses house and she had to leave to take pics for the insurance co..

    Our lights kept flickering , but we never lost power. Be careful driving home.xxxx

    Hi Karen , how are you today? Do you still have snow? I hope its not to bad. I'm sure Chase likes it. xxxx

    Hi Jane , Lucy , Sheila , Auntie Em , Valsul , Mia , Wren , Cyndy , Nancy , Shirlann , Karyll , and all my other sisters.xxxx

    Evenin' Ladies,

    Well, I just got back from waalking my dogs and those 50mph wind gusts almost blew me to OZ!!!   I swear it felt like the opening scenes of the movie when they are racing around to hide from the twister!!  JEEZ!!Surprised

    Sue, so you had a meltdown at the hospital - don't stress over it, I am sure they have seen worse. You keep eating missy -  you'll have plenty of time later to lose any weight you have gained.

    Ulla - trust me when I tell you the worst is over.   You will have a nice break and by the time rads start you will all ready being feeling allot like your old self. 

    Where is Karyll??  Should I send the monkeys out to look for her???

    AE
