Teka

I am going to post quick then go back later and read other prior posts.

Paula, ask MO to schedule an ultrasound before the January 27th appointment.

Honey Bair....WELCOME......don't let this group scare ya off, we are a little rough around the edges, but have a good time..

Honey Bear is Honey Boo-Boo father, Mother is Mama June, I think.. Hard to watch sometimes, especially if they are cooking....woo, can not imagine eating that..... 

Chevyboy

SEE Cammi!  I got PART of it right!  Aren't they all a hoot???  Get it?  A Hoot?  Aw geez, that was too easy! 

Chevyboy

Teka, great idea on the ultrasound. Thanks.

Chevy, my DH said, a fellow came to work at Whirlpool Warehouse wearing Batman pajama bottoms the other day. I said, " Well Jimmy, you could wear your Superman Jammie's." He didn't think much of that comment.

Several years ago Jimmy had neck surgery. I had told Pastor, that Jimmy was complaining about them putting a dress on him (hospital gown). Just before they took him to the OR, Pastor & I went back in to see him. Pastor said, "Jim, I like your dress." By now, he'd been given some pretty good pre-surgery drugs. He threw one Ted Hose clad leg in the air and said, " Yeah, they gave me stockings to match."

The next day DS & I took his Superman P.J.s to the hospital. I never saw a man move as fast as he did getting that gown off and getting his Superman Jammie's on. I still laugh about it.

Paula

Smaarty

well, my post from last night didn't post.

Stacey-you're very brave to watch. If I watch, me or someone else, I'll pass out. Learned that the hard way when I watched my cat being worked on when I was a teenager. Almost watch the last fill but decided it was more important to talk about the implants than freak out the doc.

I don't where pjs to sleep in, just around the house all day if I'm not going anywhere. I used to have to put on a bra and top but not anymore. It was too uncomfortable to go without. No more bras for me.

Honey BooBoo just makes me gag! Can't stand Eve the commercials for the show. Ugh! 

Are things getting better back east?

badger

hi all, finally caught up on posts - phew! 

Chevy, doing the happy dance about your ears!

Must share this!  TLC has a show about people's crazy obsessions, and one episode was on plastic surgery. It featured a woman who had 3500 cc breast implants, which apparently is size LLL.  She wanted bigger implants, double the size.  The PS she consulted with said she couldn't double size because the largest implant is 5500 cc (OMG), that he would not recommend she go larger due to damage to chest, and he would not perform surgery on her.  (Didn't stop him from copping a feel though.)  She went doctor shopping and found someone who did it.  Made her a size QQQ.  Holy chit!

Must head to the store ahead of the freezing rain headed this way.  TTFN ♥

Teka

Paula, MO needs to move your BC care from the back burner to the front burner.

This is a one time post to thank the many who saw and enjoyed Grayson's Utube video........loads of you knew her trauma from many posts going back to 2011 and many threads.....your prayers helped bring her to where she is today and for that we will be ever grateful...she still can't stand alone without the Gait Walker or sit without her special chair, and crawls on her belly ( her only other means of transportation when she gets tired in the other 2, and she tires quickly)....,but she is a fighter."........

With the help of a dedicated and loving family, Children's Hospital, Philly....Boston's Children's Hospital, Shriner's, and the dedicated therapists and Doctors.......one day we may see her walk alone..........

Thanks again, and thanks to Chevy for bringing the good news to all of you, and Shellshine who did too.

 Owl have to think about this.

Teka, my MO will take this very seriously when she knows about it. I just noticed it a few days ago, and since I had an appointment already scheduled with her (I see her every 3 months) I figured it could wait for a couple more weeks.

I'm thinking since in the past 14 months I've had umx, chemo, rads, & arimidex, it's probably just scar tissue. I had a really rough time with rads which I finished in August. I lost all the skin on my chest and armpit. I had to use Silvadine ointment and ice packs to survive. It took more than a month for the outside to heal, and I heal pretty quickly. I will still have her check it out though.

Paula

Teka

Paula, I exhaust myself worrying about lymphedema, scar tissue, nerve pain, in my sore boob.

Teka

camillegal,

Perfect Timing!!

Teka

sas, will piss her panties laughing!

Teka

camillegal, you made my day!

Teka

I had a relative who would fart and say------------"kiss for you" then wink.

Chevyboy

Well,  we were  all with you Ducky.... And such a horrible story of malpractice I had ever heard of....   So glad she is doing better..... Who knows?  She might outshine even what is expected of her!    It's so good to hear of something good coming from a terrible situation.....  Thanks!  Maybe keep us posted?

duckyb1

Chevy will do......

Alyson

Paula, do get it checked out but it is probably damaged tissue. I had quite a large lump which they had to remove it was B9 and caused by radiation. Others will be able to tell you more. Like you I had burnt very badly from radiation so maybe this is the reason. Anyway you need to check these things out.

I almost got up at one point in the night but listened to music instead and luckily this time I got back to sleep and actually slept in. So this owl must get dressed.

We could all get some of these?

or these

Chevyboy

Teka.... It HAD to be an older man!  They find humor in all those noises..... AND burping!  

I am so mad at my Primary Care Doc....  She wouldn't give me a referral for the ENT, because she said they could fix my ears there....  She COULDN'T 4 months ago, and just brushed it off!   So I sure wasn't going to go back for her to flush them again.

I PAID for the ENT to clear my ears....  He had the right equipment.  And it worked.  

Would you gals quit going to that PC?  I could, because there are 2 other women in that same group!  Insurance says I can....  I just want to be able to trust my PC to take care of US, instead of thinking about how much money they can bill your Insurance for treatments they do that don't work!    We've been going to her for over 15 years, and she would not help me with a referral  when I asked.  And when the ENT gal asked.   Maybe it's time to slash some tires....  I mean WE pay THEM!  Our Insurance PAYS them!  Don't they work for US?   Okay.... I'm done.

Chevyboy

LITTLE FAIRY OWLS!    AND A MOUSE ASLEEP ON THE BRANCH.

Teka

I so love anything owl & mouse.

Yes, an old man!

badger

Chevy, even though it was $$ well-spent to get your hearing back, I'd think about appealing to the ins co.  I bet the ENT would support a claim that it was medically necessary.  And if I had other good options, I'd re-consider going to that PCP. 

Alyson, love the owl PJ's!

Chevyboy

Badger, thanks!  He DID say he was going to put a note in the report that he was sending to my PC, about how it WAS necessary that he cleaned them the way he did.  I talked to the Insurance Co, about changing PC's, but I didn't ask about filing a claim!   She did say he...the ENT.... WAS  covered by my Insurance, but not without a referral.  Maybe I'll call back and ask? 

And yes, I WILL use one of the other PC Docs in that practice....  It just has to go through the Insurance, and get another card.  I would HOPE the new PC would HELP me, when I need it, and NOT refuse a referral like mine did.   But they all probably use the same referral gal!  The same desk!  But the order  HAS to come from the PC, right? 

Probably no one else has faced this...   I read on-line that my PC has terrible reviews!   How "indifferent" she is....  etc....... I never thought of doing that before..... 

badger

Chevy, I never looked up my doc on-line as I live in podunk and had limited options when I moved here (from CO) 20+ years ago but it's a good idea.

Check your ins to see if you're a customer of the practice versus the individual doc.  That's how mine is.  I could go to any of several docs now but like mine so no need to switch.
