She measured my arms and my lymph node dissection arm is smaller than my dominant right arm which is great news. She does want me to wear a sleeve when I exercise or fly. Also, the sleeve when worn outside while walking, hopefully will help with bug bites or sunburn. Because it is so hot here most of the time....especially in the summer our temp will be high 90's and low 100's and very humid, I don't see myself wearing wearing it every day. I will see her 6 more times for massa... Continue Reading In Wellness & Health 1368796424.42 On 5/16/2013 ive been framed said: Thanks ladies! I actually had some fast food for lunch- haven't had that in forever and that is a treat! I'm still wary- I could wake up one day and out of the blue something can happen again that could change everything. If not to me, someone close to me. So...I'm thankful each day when my stupid boobs, stupid ovaries, and now stupid and naughty uterus don't turn against me! ((Blessings to you all)) Welcome to the --Which Shoe is Going to Drop Today club-----all of us go thru that everyday. I was always surprised I woke up the next day when I was g...

Now go do something fun and forget about that stupid uterus-----stupid uterus and ovaries and boobs!!!!! Just be aware of your body and take care of it before it screams at you!! I did go outside and cuss that 1400 lb (not really) compost barrel out today and was going to go kick it-----------------------------but I thought better of it and just cussed at it instead.

Yes I was very sore yesterday but took something for the aches and pains and then took a hot shower. Worked pretty good and today am feeling better. Slept a little better last night, which isn't saying much but at least I didn't wake myself up when I moved my poor scraped up shin. I know your chemo sounds like it will never be over especially when you go every 3 weeks. And yes, expect it to get a little worse each time now. And let's not talk about the rads yet---thats too far out. I ...

Last edited on 5/15/2013 Hi traveler--I tried a few times to post there but got no responses. It's such a huge board of thousands of posters and threads, I never got an answer or even a nibble. Continue Reading In Wellness & Health 1368639508.163 Hi Donna--Welcome to our little group. We are a mighty bunch and hopefully we can help out when you need us. Very sorry about your pap issues, but bravo to you for jumping in and taking care of it. WE need to be in charge of our bodies not the other way around. Hope tomorrow will bring good news about your biopsy. I don't know much about the medical side of things so won't try to give you any advice there. I guess I can only tell you not to freak out yet---try to wait until you have more info. The hardest thing is the waiting and as soon as you know something, you'll be able to go on with wha...

It makes everything go on so smoothly and made the foundation like a BB cream. Also you can put it on over your night time moisturizer and it will seal it in to your skin so it won't come off on your pillow case. Continue Reading
