Good Morning from sunny NY.
-
Happy Sunday from PA!!
-
How're you feeling, Sandy? Hope you're not having any SE's. (((((((Sandy)))))))
(((((((TOL)))))))) ♥
-
I'm craving for a tomato basil motzarella salad.
I don't bother posting my pics on here, I just don't feel like dealing with other websites.
-
I love caprese salads! Enjoy, Deb.
Humid here, heading to sons baseball pool party soon. I would rather stay here!
-
I was here.
-
was nauseous today as usually, mouth sores are starting, mouth is dry, but I will survive, eating my DQ in a few, lol!!!
hey Sheila glad to hear it!!!
How is everyone?
-
Hugs Sandy♥
Do you use that swish think to ease the mouth sores. When i was on chemo I couldnt eat for days because of mouth sores. It' a prescription not over the counter.
-
-
I just loved that picture Meece.
Good morning from a beautiful sunny NY which reminds me i have to do wash among other things.
♥
-
I failed to mention what a great picture that is of you and DH, Meece. Truly a good looking couple.
Hope the DQ medicine did the trick, Sandy. I think Magic Mouthwash is what Sheila was asking about. You shouldn't have to suffer with mouth sores. If over the counter stuff isn't doing the trick, I would definitely look into getting Magic Mouthwash. I think it has lidocaine in it which is at least part of why it is prescription. DQ therapy is good too.

Hey, Sheila - I'm in your state this week. Chestertown. At Loon Lake. Our annual vaca with my parents. My Dad, DH, and DD got up at 5 - ugh - to go fishing. DS went with them yesterday, but decided to sleep in today. Not that I would want to get up at 5, but there isn't room in the boat for me so I don't go with them. They should be back soon, so I'd better get my lazy be-hind in the shower.
Hope everyone is having a good start to the day. (((((((TOL))))))))
-
thanks Chris I will look into it!!
you also, love you all!!!
-
Hope the magic mouthwash works for you Sandy, otherwise keep going to DQ. Hope you feel better.
-
(((((SANDY)))))
(((TOL)))))
-
I ate like a cow garden fresh salad big bowl of it.
And turkey burgers with fresh dill.
Dinner was yummy.
Dessert & dessert

-
Why stop at 2??
-
I stopped at one the other one was chocolate

-
Sandy - I had the wonderful magic mouthwash and it is very helpful. I hope you can acquire some. Linda is right, it does have lidocaine along with liquid benadryl and maalox to coat your sores. I hope you feel better!
Linda - I hadnt thought of a plover in forever!
Chris - can you sleep in if you don't go or do you just wake up and not go back to sleep?
Sheila -as usual,now I want dessert!
Tomorrow I will see the med onc and the rad onc on the breast surgeon's recommendation. I'll review the nasty arimidex with the med onc and learn more about radiation fibrosis and breast lymphedema from the rad onc. Hoping everyone is in agreement tomorrow. Also hoping I can stop using my phone to take pictures of my breast in various stages of change.
-
Thank you for your compliments, ladies.
I don't have any experience with mouth sores but I credit that to my nurses giving me popsicles while I was getting my Adramycin. I felt very lucky. So with that in mind, I think your DQ therapy is wise, Sandy.
-
(((Diane))) Good luck with the appointments.
Just got back from my walk. Very humid today and I wanted to gt it over with early. Hope you are all doing well!
-
-
Is it too early to put the AC on?
-
No, never too early. It's muggy!
-
Good luck with the doctors today, Diane.
I sleep while they fish. Been reading too - which causes me to sleep too. So getting lots of sleep - lol. Rereading the last Harry Potter book in preparation for the final movie.
LOTR marathon went so well, there's a Star Wars marathon this Sunday and then probably a Harry Potter marathon of sorts... We shall see.
(((((((TOL))))))))
-
7 boys in my pool. 2 more in my basement. I bet it would be a lot quieter if they were girls!
-
There would be fights if they were girls.
Well the med onc wants me to do an MRI. The rad onc feels it is radiation recall and that I will be ok.....waiting, waiting, waiting.....how i love waiting.
-
There would be shrieking if they were girls...lol
At least with the mri, you won't have to wonder. Hoping it's just a rads se that will go away and stay away.
-
i had too much energy today and accomplished most of the unpleasant cleanings etc......
Diane..... I know the waiting can actually drive you crazy.
2 years ago when I accidentally joined BCO I was waiting for test results and it was 4th of July weekend, everything took longer. I still don't remember how i actually ended up here because I wasn't looking for 1.
I always say everything happens for a reason.
Here is my reason Meeting all of you here♥
-
I could open up my own video store, I have all those movies. LOL
-
I don't remember how I found this site either. I was in tx until July 26th 2007 that was after my radiation was done. Then I felt lost so I guess I googled and found this. Started out in the chat room first and met 27 of the most wonderful ladies from chat. We planned a meet and greet in Las Vegas. My DD was already there doing a International Tradeshow for work so we already had a place to stay free. And it was my birthday so I treated myself. Had a wonderful time. I'll post a pic on FB. Lost 3 of those ladies: Watson, Aus and Saint.
