gardengumby

I never got over the childhood impatience of burning 'em, then pulling off the burnt skin and reburning 'em 'til there is no more marshmallow...

Roast weinies on a branch you picked (and sharpened) yourself, or a store bought metal "roasting" fork?

if you have a pet....buy him/he/them Christmas presents or not

gardengumby

don't have a pet anymore, but when we did, we'd buy him dog biscuits

send Christmas cards or gave it up?

Ruth, I have a question about something you said earlier....  Do hot tubs and saunas cause lymphedema?  I haven't been in either of them forever, but love taking hot baths - my thermostat doesn't work at all...  it's permanently on COLD.  I would WELCOME a hot flash!!!

ruthbru

send

hot tubs & saunas raise the body temperature and could possibly cause or trigger a LE attack. I don't think hot baths or showers could get you as hot as a hot tub or sauna could. I love a long, hot shower myself.

shower or bath

hbcheryl

shower

soap or bodywash

WellWater

bodywash....soap is too drying.

(Ruth, I sit in a whirpool almost everyday post exercise at the health club...never heard it could trigger a LE attack...good information)

Use a washcloth/exfoliating cloth or a plastic scrungee (in the shower)

gardengumby

washcloth - I'm not fond of plastic against my skin

lots of short couple day vacations throughout the year or save up time and take a month

Ruth, thanks for the information.  I wasn't aware that heightened body temperature could cause LE.
