Joan _oh no if you need the Z pak you need it , but a yeast infection---we deal with. The probelem is the more antibx's we have the greater the yeast problem. So, oral antibx's are good . Oral sex is good, I' know your going AHHHH.Use coconut oil and probiotics as a lubricant. Taugth to me by my PCP. certainly wish I could use it more often La de da

Joan z pak 2pills the first day and then one pill for the next four days------covers you for two weeks, but if you don't take two pills the first day you can't get to threshold blood level for ever. used to be able to say exact, but now can't. Had to teach the doc's/ nurses and even the pharmasists when the drug came out. It was read the instructions thing. By stopping the drug you allow whatever the bacteria is , to gain resistance to the drug. BAD. Plus are you on AI's or Tamox? They reduce immunity to infections. Pm me if the yeast is bad Sheila

How's the fire? Onto it some aggravation about how we are not respected for our choices. Have to let it go.
Is that you Granny Dukes? Don't change your avatar until you answer me ok?
Sassy - I love the blues. Also the old r & b, my favorite, some jazz too. I am going to your thread next, we need more music in our lives. I use Pandora a lot.
Jo - ssssssoooooooo good to know one is on top and am so happy for you. Ran the long run, and I am not talking a pink one either, it was black and blue and you are doing so well.
The storm is here and feels like the house will blow away, other than that we still have computer, so going to work a few hrs then to bed and up well before dawn, loving it!
Let's have some smores and listen to blues.
LOVEEssa

MadBlueBird - You asked for S'mores - well here they are.

sas-Sheila, you have me L-ing OL
I am feeling better ... not sure I needed the Zpac but took it because I was supposed to go to Disney (didn't)...I skipped the last pill and don't think I didn't whirl it around in my head asking 'how did they arrive at just this dose....it must be important and I am risking a relapse' (So, should I go find that last pill and take it anyway?)
I'd like to throw the virus/bacterium into the fire so nobody else can catch it.
Happy last few hours of the week end....
Joan

PS has to take out the left expander tomorrow. The skin is not cooperating. He wants to do it before chemo before my blood count drops. Safer that way. Sooooooo.......
Into the fire with the expander.
I'll be flat on one side. More body image problems. -
Veggy - Darn it all. Will you have another TE put in after chemo? Sending gentle hugs sweetie.
-
No. We will go to Plan B, latissimus dorsi flap after chemo. Meantime he gave me a script for a falsie. Tonight I am taking my anti-anxiety med early. I don't want to think about it.
-
Veggy I celebrate- your words of acceptance----a boob is not worth your life----I can say this b/c had I not acted when I did and did what I did, I would not be writing to you now. If someone needs to have an explanation of that statement I will write it . I just don't want to be repetitive when everyone knows the story. I have no idea what shoe will drop tomorrow, but I do know the decisions made 2009, are the reason I'm still here.

Thanks Sas! Good night.
