Hiya,

Well, yes, Dolly, he did fly me out the window. I didn't need helium,

as I had the unusual complication of overinflation of gas already! LOL

Actually, Hubby put the back of the front seat almost all the way down.

Then he helped me place my legs into the car and gently shoved the rest of me

in! LOL Once home, I couldn't even sit on the couch or get into bed for a

week. I'd sit on the very edge of the bed and he'd lift my legs onto the bed

and over a few pillows. He has surely been an angel! Being able to get up and

down and shower all by myself actually seem like luxuries this week. Oh, the

things we take for granted! I truely am on the mend, just not as quickly as

I'd hoped for.

I must remember that all good things come to those who wait! LOL Thanks!

Thanks , also, to Deborah and for your well wishes!

Thanks! I bought Dad tumeric, and gave it to him yesterday, but

told him he might want to get the Lipitor totally out of his system

first, since they are both anti-inflammatory. Is that correct?

If so, how long will it take after the last 1/2 pill, before the

statin drug is out of his system??

After the last 1/2 pill, the drug will be out of his system completely in a couple days. There are other issues. Statins deplete coenzyme q, so you might want to give him some CoQ10 for a couple weeks. Seaweed is important also as is fish oil.kimberlyhartke <kimberlyhartke@...> wrote: Thanks!

a I have a dull nagging pain in my knee most of the time when I

am not taking pain pills. It sure can wear you down. I am thankful

not to have the same sharp pains I had before my surgery but will be

so thankful when what I assume is healing pains stops. JJ

>

> Thanks to everyone who wrote to support me when I was having a bad

time dealing with the pain and upcoming surgery! I just needed to

have a pity party. The problem with a pity party is it can leave a

real mess behind, thanks for helping me to clean up. The strange part

is nothing has really changed just how I feel and how I'm dealing

with it and that has alot to do with everyone here. So thanks again

and if I have another pity party I know i can invite you all to get

me through it

Audrey according to the recent news about statins, they DO NOT benefit

WOMEN and they DO NOT benefit the ELDERLY. They ONLY benefit MIDDLE

AGED MEN between the ages of 45 to 65 but the benefit is SMALL meaning

that 99 out of 100 men taking a statin for 3.3 years will not benefit

or it will prevent only one heart attack out of 100 men taking statins.

Don't just tell your doctor what you have decided, EDUCATE HIM OR HER

on the TRUTH about statins and include the fact that all statins have

very harmful side effects. BTW, you won't benefit from statins even

when you hit your 50s.phine.

While this is certainly a positive outcome, it is inconceivable that a

specialist would make such scientifically illiterate remarks. Why on earth

would surgery on an unvaccinated child pose a threat in the first place,

when in fact the as yet uncompromised immune system of the child would

greatly enhance the success of surgery. Not even a vet would vaccinate a

sick animal before or after surgery or a newborn puppy or kitten for that

matter.

Thanks Holly for letting us know what happened. That was a delightful thing to hear. Often the threats are just that! The parents are well within their rights, and those doctors know it. Much good hopes for a good outcome for that baby. May it thrive with the needed corrective surgery. A wonderfully uplifting success story. Make sure you tell the parents to acquire a Texas medical vaccine exemption, and have it in place. That child should never be vaccinated, due to the congenital birth defect and future unknowns!

Hi Laurie and EveryOne,

If you leave your Kombucha tea at room temperature, in sealed glass

bottles, please open it at least once a day to let out the excess

carbonation. While you may want fizz you certainly don't want an

explosion.

Like Champagne, Kombucha can build up significant pressure in a sealed

bottle. A little fizz is great, a little more can be dangerous. When

Kombucha explodes in can send glass shards flying in every direction.

Peace, Love and Harmony,

Bev

Thanks Jenni, , and Everyone,

I have an appointment with Dr. (my fill doctor) on the 11th. I haven't hurt in several days but my stomach has been very tender to the touch, even low in my stomach, it's like it is sore which I guess it is...

Question...Would you go to your family doctor or fill doctor?

Thanks, Rena

Hey Rena,

I wonder if you could be having some Gallbladder problems? When I had mine I felt like it was gas too. I felt bloated and just hurt in the upper part of my stomach. It would hurt for a while then I would be okay for a while. It was really weird. I think everybody hurts a little different with this so it can be a little hard to diagnose. If you keep hurting you might want to go to your family doctor and get him to order a sonogram. Hope you get to feeling better soon!

Re: [Dr-Aceves-bandster s] Anyone get stomach pain??

Hi All,

I was wondering if any of you who are banded, does your stomach hurt any (right under your rib cage)? It feels like a brick in it (when walking), the weird thing is it does not hurt as long as I'm sitting but when I get up it really hurts and I have to press my palm against my tummy, that seems to help...It's not an everyday hurt...So far this week it has hurt me twice and I can tell it may hurt today either that or I'm sore from yesterday...

I thought at 1st it was trapped gas. But it started hurting yesterday evening (I wasn't eating or anything). The other day I had drank some sweet tea and it hurt...It hurts up to 3 days usually no longer than that...

The pain is high up in my tummy near my port but I can tell it's not my port...It's also tender lower in the tummy...

Any ideas? Like I said it doesn't hurt a bit as long as I'm sitting which I find very odd...Not sure how to really describe it...One day it was hurting and I went ahead and ate and that helped...I tried it again another time and it didn't help...I've also tried Mylanta (yuk!), not sure if it helped but after an hour or so it quit hurting...

Strange I know...This has been going on for a very long time, it hurt yesterday and I thought I'd ask around and see who else has had similar pains...

Thanks guys & gals

Your fill Dr will probably be ok, but if you can get in to your family Dr. sooner you might want to do that. He will probably just send you to get a sonagram at the hospital anyway.

Personally,

I would go to a fill doctor first and let them rule out any problems, so the family doctor couldn't lay the problem off on the band. That way if you know it's not any band related issues, you can stand firm w/your doctor until he/she finds the real problem.

Hi Thanks for the hormone advice! It makes sense to me. Bioidentical hormones freak me out a bit especially with a hormone dependent breast cancer history. But I'll check it out.
