STFU (Shut the F*** UP)

ChickaD

So big shot of Torodal, 60mg of prednisone todayand a pain patch and I'm awake awake awake...ugh..feel better but my brain feels like a bee hive of activity...what a trade off...ugh  and my eyes are blurry....sometimes this medical crap just sucks...lol

On Tuesday (hmmm I guess today already) me and Caitie are going to dermatologist for bumps on  my head...then pedicures...then to visit my office

Good luck Miss BlondeBombShell and Miss AllAmericanMom...good luck with everything....we are all here with you  xoxo

juliaanna

Chicky-buzzing, sorry for the lousy day. Sounds like tomorrow will be better. Aren't pedicures grand?!

ChickaD

Hi Miss Jules.....yes very much looking foward to pretty toes!

juliaanna

Do you like dark polish? Sparkly? My favorite is OPI's Strawberries in the Sand..sparkly bright coral. It was 90 degrees today and is still 78-no breeze. Going to be hard to sleep. We don't have air conditioning, just fans.

ChickaD

Love anything sparkly...I usually go toward my favorite purples or corals too!



I will try and post a pic tomorrow!

juliaanna

I'm still trying to figure out the posting pictures thing. One step at a time..

Chevyboy

Chickers!  I think they are trying to kill you!  WTF?????????  And 60 mg of Prednisone??????  Your eyes are glazed??????  You're high, big girl!  Just lay back and enjoy it. 

Let someone ELSE do the polishing, with you being in that state of mind!  You'll have sparkly polish from your eyebrows to your knees, and miss your toenails altogether.

Did you SEE what Cammi said to me?  She is insinuating that I am old.... or something resembling that!    She has a bad back you know.... Must be all those days catching up to her from being back and forth in that back-seat, and over the front seats.... they didn't recline in those days... I know! And in a 2-door car, those are TRI-C-K-Y!  

Julianna, are you trying to post pictures from something other than a desk-top computer?  Like those new fangled phones, or tablets, or whatever those things are?

I have a desk-top, and all the pictures that I have taken are on here, in Picassa!  It's a download, and stores all your pictures, and the ones you "save" from the Internet...  OR I can copy them from Google Images....  You just type in ANYthing, then you will see millions of pictures..  So you click on that,  then right click copy, then come back here, and right click paste.... like this.... Okay, what would we like to see this morning???  Oh, I know!.... 

It's MAGIC!!!  Ha!  But whenever I see a picture I like, I right click, and click "save-as" and it goes into my Picassa... forever and eternity.

Yes Blondie and MagicMom.... I mean MostlyMom... Drop us a note.... and we're thinking of you!

I called Dentist.... Sure, more impressions & fittings he says.... Then two more weeks????  Is he kidding me?  Where are they coming from?  They better be damn good, is all I can say...  I need back-up I think....  I'm trying to not be mad at the delay, but maybe I should ask if he is carving them from the nearest tree?   Impressions, my a$$....  But what do I know...?  Nothing, probably....  Okay, it's a given..... shut up Cammi.

Blessings to al who are having prcedures, chemo, pedicures today.

Chevy now calm down I did not insinuate u are old, I downright said u are old, but I also said I was too--not as old as u but old. But u do know how to download pics. so I give u credit for that--I barely can, or some reason It doesn;t click.

It's getting hotter and hotter everyday--Now I'll be complaining--People tell me to just stay in--well the Drs. don't cuz that's who I'm seeing--but just once this week so that;s good-next week 3 times-WTF they're not doing chit for me.

BTW Chevy when u write to complain about me on the board, I can read it.--Just to let u know.

Can't sleep - got up to check in - love it - keep it up you two 💛

Merlcat

Wow! 10 pages for me to catch up on and no time ...sigh...I drove in excess of 250 miles yesterday and didn't leave the county in which we live just schlepping the kids around....today is even busier. I hope everyone is well and no one has been arrested for beating someone senseless for the stupid a$$ things they do or say! I have a follow up at the reconstructive surgeon later this morning, between dropping off youngest at baseball ( poor kid- it's supposed to be in the upper 90s here) , oldest at internship in silver spring and middle child at dance....



Hope to 'see' everyone soon!

good morning goohlihans!  Today is my dyslexia day apparently.  But I came with a gift for Chevy - her very own chevy mug

Why, you ask?  I have NFI!  I guess I'm just a nice person. 

Yesterday I went and saw my LE therapist.  WE HAD A MIRACLE!  Well, to me it was sort of a miracle.  The truncal LE that we were worrying was developing on my right side under my scar is most likely onle EDEMA  not LymphEDEMA.!  It's from the mastectomy.  I've got a concrete slab like area in my armpit that is being stubborn that may be keeping the fluid from draining properly.  4 months out from surgery, I thought I would be CURED!  Silly me.  Anyway the good news for me is that I do not have to wear compression tanks any more.  I don't even have to wear my sleeve unless something is funky or I'm picking up grandkids and throwing them in the pool, or maybe trimming trees or housework!  I was happy with that news.  Here is my takeaway - I cannot clean house unless I put on my sleeve.  How often is THAT gonna happen???  Especially since I just hid them. I sure hope it's right!

I would like to say that I am SO happy that we have two lifeguards here on this thread.  Two that can shower and save themselves.  That is AMAZING.  And swimming while laughing, that is so awesome.

I'm a little worried about our little blondie today.  Aren't they sticking a needle in her lung?  Yikes! It would be less worrysome if they could just put a towel on her chest and charm the fluid out by ....what's that word....osmosis?  So today they will stick in a big fat needle (I'm making this up - no idea how they do it) and take fluid out of her lung.  Then tomorrow they put in another needle and give her more chemo juice.  This is not fair!  I bet they don't even use the same needle hole.

mostlymom and other surgery ladies -  best of luck, lovely drugs and quick healing to you.

cammi - my app will probably take longer because they still have me staged as IIa. That may put me back at the end of the line I'll just have to see.  Every day is a new adventure!

Today I am going to play in traffic, run with scissors, put my head in the oven, jump out of my bedroom window, or just have myself committed. Maybe I'll just bang my head against a wall. I'll shut up now!

Spookiesmom

No, Veggy!!!!!we need you!!!!! C'om on, spill!!!!

camillegal

Vggy if I could run, it would definitely be with scissors in my hand. Love u'r attitude.

PhylonoLE---good for u--great news--hide those damn things and forget the housework. I hope Blondie is about done with that drain thing, I have no idea how that works and I don't want to know. She's getting hit 2 days in a row. Phylosnapapicture---did u take that picture cuz it really is a pretty view--and even tho they are yellow I know they are not dandelions right, BTW I like the meaning of lifeguard, someone who takes a shower on their own. LOL it's true around here. I felt so bad when my OT said I should get a seat in the shower, cuz my mom got one when she was like 85--OMG I didn't tell anyone especially my kids--My body is so old not like my brain (shut up Chevy) I still think silly and goofy and then I walk and it's so hard then I feel so so old. Bwaaaaaaaaa. that's a sad cry. I go to PT today next week I have Drs. and Pt 3 days in a row, Why do I hate this so much I reall didn't have a problem a couple of years ago, now I don't want to be bothered by any one of them. I know I shouldn't complain cuz cancer wise I'm doing good but so much else is going around me and I'm always with some Dr. now--I had 4 Drs. before and to me that was plenty, now I have 7 and that bothers me--Sorry I'm on a rant today, my pain meds are wearing off hahahaha OK I'll STFU cuz I hate being like this with u guys--I'm always so nice especially to littleold Chevy.  OH no I'm in trouble now.

Healing thoughts for everyone, for sx's and procedure. Nappy allot. Overdid exercizing, many body parts unhappy. Thinking of you all

marywh

Need all of you in my pocket thurs. too. scheduled for a brain scan due to debilitating dizziness. Veggy I need to be with you...

sas-schatzi

Mary, make sure you get a doc that know's how to test for crystals in the labirynth. Both Shells DH, and I had it at the same time. We were lucky to both have doc's that did the test early. Therefore, we had diagnoses early. MY MRI always shows a shadow on the mastoid. The ENT doc always says"I keep trying to teach them it's a shadow,'its a shadow". ENT doc Indian, always repeats every thing twice LOL. So, IF they give you a dx of mastoiditis get a disk and take it to the ENT doc. Tell them when you go in you would like a disk Cd to take to ENT doc.

Chevyboy

Isn't a Labyrinth some sort of cave?   Mary has a cave in her head?  Just WONdering.    Marywiththecave.... My GF had so many dizzy spells, and all sorts of tests, and yes they did find something, but they just treat her with pills.... She had BC also, and was afraid, of course, that it was the same thing.... For awhile she could not drive.... and spent a lot of time in bed, but the medication is helping....   But Mary, we ARE all with you!  I'll say a prayer for you.... or many!  xoxoxo

Phylliroastbeef!  We have 2 life-guards?  A lot of good THAT is going to do us, beins' as how we don't even go in the water.... unless someone PUSHES us!  You have a concrete slab?  Don't those belong outdoors?  Somewhere?   I have compression stockings that I'm not wearing right now either.... We could keep our compression garments together!    And I LOVE my Chevy cup!  How sweet of you!  Cammi would have given me coal... in a Christmas stocking.

Veggy.... what happened?  Are you serious?  Are you temporarily at the end of your rope?  Can we help you somehow?  I can make you 1/2 a toasted sesame bagel, with peanut butter and cherry marmalade!  I just had one.... and you would have liked it too.

Cammi!  Damnit!   You lost your clicker?  AND your mind?  And I didn't know you could read!    Much LESS type.... Ha, ha!    And I'LL give YOU "down-right old!"    Actually, my age SOUNDS so old, but when I look at myself in the mirror, the flower-rimmed mirror, I see a beautiful intelligent graceful woman in there!  Then I put that picture down, and find the real mirror.        OH!  By the way....Just have to tell you, that it cracks me up when I read what you post.... That is if I can understand anything that you write.... you being OLD and all.  (love you little Cam!)

Merlecat!  You need a chauffer, babe!  Some nice looking dude to cart those kids all over the place! No, wait...... You need a Limo!  One with a stocked Bar, and a pole.... The pole is  NOT for you,  but for the guy that it's stocked with.    The van is for the kids....the Limo is for you.

Good to see you GrammiFoley....  everything okay now?  Yes, We are all with Blondie....

Hi Shells and Spookie! 

Took DH to the Dentist.... He has the Titanium bridge plate made for the lower jaw, and it fits real good.... Will look REAL good with teeth in it!

Took impressions of the top.... Glad he is taking the time, because DH's jaw just quit hurting up on the top!   So we go again Monday, for another fitting, and in about 12 years, he will have his teeth.    Just kidding.... In 2 weeks he said.... They are coming from Tibet.... by fishing boat.

Veggy, I'm braiding more rope for you. How else can I/we help?

I'm sick and tired of the BS cancer keeps throwing in my face.

Hi Juliaanna!  Try this!

It automatically scans your computer for any pictures you have on your hard drive....  You can also "upload" your pictures to a "web-album" that you have signed in for, and then you can post pictures of YOURS to all of us here!...  Like this...

I took this in May, before the tomatoes grew huge! 

Are you using a Desk-top computer?  That's what I have....  good luck!

Veggy!  We're holding on to the end of your rope, so you can't slide off!  Man, I remember climbing the ropes at Grade School, all the way to the ceiling....  (Well, where ELSE would they be?)  Didn't fall off either....  That's when I had no fear.

Anonymous

Can someone put a trampoline under me incase I fall off? That way it might make it easier to bounce back.

ChickaD

My sexy pedicure.....lol

camillegal

WTF I leave for a few hrs. all all hell brakes loose and whose fault is it--no nmaes mentioned but it reminds u of a CAR.

Veggie we're spotting u at the rope, we'll catch u don't worry--we're ll here for u.

Did anyone hear from Blondie--I'm wondering how she feels after the draining, does it still hurt or is it a relief? I have noe idea what happens.

Chevy I will say u must have taught someone how to load pics and that is quite an achievment cuz I can not do it at all--so I apologize for thinking u'r useless, oh maybe I shouldn't have said that cuz I don't think I ever wrote it here. ooo good thoughts for u'r DH teeth--maybe there wik be more going on in that room u sleep in, maybe not so much sleepin' will be happening. Nice going Chevy.

Sas I hope u'r resting cuz there will be more questions for u, I am assuming, there always is so u have to rest u'r brain. Like Chevy and I do so we can be perky for old people.

BTW who are the lifeguards here--since no one has a pool> I didn't know we had real life guards.

ChickaDfootfetish--I hate u'r feet--They are so perfect and I love the color--I have that on my nailshahaha--but u could be a foot model. Geeze I can't show my feet to anyone. I bet Chevy has better feet than I do., that's how bad mine are.

Chevy u do know I just love u--u'r so funny.

Spookiesmom

OMD. I was in Walgreens looking for a shampoo for chemo curls and saw



FUZZY NAILPOLISH



I touched the sample, it really is fuzzy. The clerk said its flying out the door, the young'uns love it. Thought a few here might be interested too.



Everybody feel better!

camillegal

OK Spookie I don't want that one, I love the sparkly ones tho and match it to my jewelry. I'm such a blingy person, but not fuzzy--shut up Chevy.

luvmygoats

Looks like lots of tricks to putting it on on the Sally Hansen site. One of many images. I'm doing good if I get polish on my toenails at all. Bending to reach them has become a bi**h. I have to prop my foot up on a step stool. I've only done one pedi and that was after my LX. One of the few things I forgot to do was cut my toenails pre surgery.

Veggy - Hang on tight. Wanna gripe to us?

Hope we hear from Blondie soon.
