Guest guest Posted October 16, 2000 Report Share Posted October 16, 2000 Dennis, Funny, I read the same post and thought it very insightful on many fronts. I found it almost totally concrete & useful. Most particularly, in relation to GIGO, is the Quantum proposition that one's expectations determine one's outcome. ;-) jim superflous1@... wrote: > > oh goody goody... > more channneled GIGO and nebulous > prophetic rantings. > why don't these astral necropheliacs ever > channell something concrete and usseful? > water us hydrogen and oxygen...

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2002 Report Share Posted January 9, 2002 Don't know the answer to why marriage works. was very good to his Mother and my grandmother said he's be a good husband. She sure called that one. Both my sisters are on second husbands and all three of 's brothers were divorced. We lucked out. There were days...I'm sure you all know those, but somehow the days stretched into years and here we are. As for a celebration - I had to work today so we're just going to have some wine before bed. Maybe go to dinner on Saturday. I know the girls are planning something for Sunday. They just can't keep a secret. Jeanine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2003 Report Share Posted August 4, 2003 Dear Jill, This is a common fallacy. Reduction in infant mortality is the major factor changing the statistics, not increase in longevity. My family ancestors all reached their 80s going back six generations. The longest lived people in the world, in Georgia, southern Russia, have people living over 120 years commonly. Best of health!

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Before I had my first hip put in I was told the hip would last 30 years. I was 39 years old. One time I visited the surgeon and I had been bushwalking the day before. He exclaimed " Oh, come on now, take it easy. We were hoping this hip would last you for 10 years. " I asked him what happened to 30 years and he shrugged and said, " Well technically it is possible, but not likely. " My hip lasted 12 years before the surgeons started telling me I needed a new hip. I had just started a new job - that very day - and was horrified. At 14.5 years I realise I left it far too long. But that's life. My surgeon is talking about this one lasting 10 years before needing to be redone. I really don't want to have it again. The first op was life giving to someone who was wheelchair bound and unable to be an active participant of life. I'm 9 weeks post op this time and still taking pain killers - something I had not expected. The other thing that is a killer is that I am off work until next year. I had intended going back first week in November. Surgeon says NO! I suppose it depends who you want to believe. As an ex nurse I knew 30 years with these new hips was unrealistic. (Although the old charnleys did). I wanted to believe it at the time. There were two reasons my hip failed. One was simply that I wore out the plastic liner, and the steel cup. There was gross metalosis. The surgeon told me that Osteolysis had caused my body to try to get rid of the plastic liner debris and this had caused a weakening of the bone holding the cup in. The cup had become completely loose, and each time I stood up I would have to wiggle until I put it into a position I could walk in. So I had a floating cup, and a worn out liner. Both reasons in themselves to have the hip revised. Sorry everyone - I have written a novel here. Hope it helps sebdoc!

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 > Is it true that with a THR there is a definite time before a revision > is necessaty? No, that is not true. An average for metal/poly bearings seems to be that there is a one percent chance of failure for each year. So, for example, the likelihood that a m/p hip is still in place and functioning at 15 years is 85%. There are many variables that could affect longevity. I'm sure there are many that are still functioning after 20+ years. Keep in mind that these figures are for prostheses installed many years ago. The statistics for hips implanted today may turn out to show even longer hip-life with improvements in material which have been made. Does the amount of exercise/movement after the > operation effect the longevity? Yes, it can and this is one reason that surgeons sometimes don't want to do THRs on young people - they are more likely to outlive their hip (but see my answer to your question about material below), or more to the point the amount and kind of exercise and movement can affect longevity. This is not a reason to avoid activity after THR since there are other health benefits to exercise and living a full life. Hip life might be extended if one avoids a lot of high-impact activities such as sports that involve running and jumping or involves movements and activities with a higher-than-average risk of accident which might involve fracture. There are positional limitations, especially during the first few months but it is likely that those limitations would be eased as one recovers. Are any new materials being developed > that may provide a longer period of time? Yes, there are newer alternatives to the gold standard metal/poly hip. One that has been recently FDA approved is a ceramic/ceramic bearing. Another coupling involves metal/metal. For example, a ceramic/ceramic bearing would generate less tiny debris (when compared with metal/poly) which can ultimately cause aseptic loosening. Metal/metal bearings are controversial in some camps because of the possibility of accumulating metal ions in the body. No matter which material you ultimately receive, a very important part of the equation is the skill of the surgeon. Find one who has done lots of successful procedures on hips like yours. Make sure he is aware of your needs and the kind of life-style and activities you do in your work and in recreation. I am pre-op and want to > prepare myself for the invevitable post-op life. After my THRs I can tell you that life post-op is a whole lot nicer than the pre-op life of pain and disability that I endured (for too long). Lots of luck in your planning.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Hi Peg I am one of those " young hippies " as you describe us! I am 28 and had a ceramic hip nearly 3 weeks ago. I have read everything that has already been sent to you and agree with all of it. There is a chance that the ceramic hip will break or shatter from high impact activities, or a car crash and the risk of dislocation is high. True there is also the chance that you have a dud hip from a dodgy batch, but then there are risks in all of these hip replacements and a great deal of the decision comes down to what you want your hip for. The past 3 weeks for me have been 3 of the best weeks of my life (she says with a tear in her eye!) My joint is not cemented (again due to my age) and so I am non weight bearing, which is frustrating. I can already do things that I havent been able to do since I was 7 and I am only 3 weeks post op. I sit and lie without pain and walk, with the use of my crutches for as long as my hands dont hurt! I am absolutely amazed at how I feel and the only thing that is bugging me is that I have to wait another 4 weeks to see my surgeon and see how things are progressing and maybe put some weight on it. BUT those are 4 weeks I will happily sit around for. Im waffling, sorry. Basically I felt I didnt really have a decision to make, I needed a hip and I felt that a ceramic one would give me the best possible chance of staying out of a wheelchair for the rest of my life. I was happy to take the risk. Good luck Liney p.s. Has anyone heard from Leigh as she will be 2 weeks post op today and I havent heard from her yet, I guess she is busy healing ___________________________________________________________ALL-NEW Messenger - all new features - even more fun! http://uk.messenger.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Liney, I'm glad that you are doing so well. The wait is well worth it. The next four weeks will fly. The one thing in common that all these devices have is that the hip pain many of us have had for so long is gone instantly. Good to hear that your pain is gone also.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 I had my hip replaced 33 days ago,(at age 50) with a ceramic joint. I was thinking that would be best for me after I did some research, but wondered how many Drs. I would have to see to get one. Luckily, the first OS Dr. I went to recommended a ceramic hip. He said at my age it was the only way to go. If I had come to him two years earlier, (before, or early on in the ceramic hips history, in this country) he would have told me to come back in a few years. He said if I am careful, it should last me the rest of my life. The larger ball size that some of the m/m people get is a plus. But mine is 36mm, which hopefully will be a good compramise between easier dislocation of smaller balls, and longer wear of ceramic, without producing any increased metal ions. We will see. Good luck with yours, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2004 Report Share Posted October 27, 2004 Hi Suzanne I,too, am 3 weeks post op with a ceramic hip. I have to remain non weight bearing till I see my surgeon Nov 17. I am grateful that thanks to medicare a nurse and PT come to the house to keep track of coumadin level, do exercises, etc. My leg is ever so much more mobile than before the surgery. I take vicadin(sp?) for pain and try to switch to tylenol. Dealing with pain seems to keep me tired. I'm sure glad to have the operation behind me. I'll be more glad when I can drive again. Thanks to all of you for your sharing of your experiences. I felt and still feel support from you.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 Randy, I take some 140 pills a day, plus a morning shake that has about 25 powdered and liquid ingredients. Fighting inflammation, reduction of insulin levels, boosting my immune system, maintaining the proper pH level, maintaining good cellular hydration, filling my body with a *wide* range of anti-oxidants, maintaining low cholesterol (142 currently) and blood pressure, maintaining young hormone levels, and many others -- these are key goals of my program. My health is currently optimal, which means at 43 I have hormone levels equal to when I was 30, and I am in tip-top physical shape, probably better than 95% of all teenagers or 20 year olds. (Which, sadly in our fast food society, isn't saying much these days.) I've gotten my family on the program, and some of my friends, who've seen remarkable improvements in their health. My father, at 68 years old, who once had a mild heart attack and used to be on a statin drug, is now off all medication and climbs the highest mountains in the USA, going on 3-4 trips a year. He's knees used to be a wreck, but the supplements I put him on have erased the problem. His doctor doesn't understand how he's improved like he has, and just says " keep doing whatever you're doing " . I even have my pets on a small list of supplements, such as fish oil and a joint protection formula. I spend about $5000 a year on all of my preventative health care. Some of my friends think I'm nuts.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 I've been asked this question so many times that for the last month I've been slowly putting together my full list as a blog entry, which I'll go live with in a week or two, and post the URL here. Keep in mind, even though I take some 140-150 pills a day, many are duplicates. For example, I take 6 EPA/DHA fish oil pills a day, and two resveratrol, and so on. I have a morning batch, a pre-bed batch, and a less critical batch I keep at work for mid-day, that I don't end up taking on the weekends. > > > " The smart thing is to take every step available > > now > > > to improve one's > > > health condition and slow down the aging > > processes. > > > Resveratrol, > > > anti-oxidants, proper nutrition, hormones, > > exercise, > > > fish oil, and > > > dozens of other supplements all work toward this > > goal. > > > To not make > > > use of all of these currently available tactics is > > a > > > blunder that > > > will come back to haunt these thick heads.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 Just to be clear, my dad is a great " patient " and has pretty much accepted everything I've asked him to take, plus I also pay for him to go to the gym three times a week and do strength conditioning with a trainer. He's really bought into the " program, " as I call it. He takes a lot of other supplements, which I'm sure have a synergistic benefit for his knees and other joints. But the ones I listed previously are the only most targeted to these concerns. I firmly believe in whole body health, and what helps one part of the body likely helps the entire body to some extent, because all of our body's systems are somewhat interconnected and provide feedback to each other. It's really important to keep the entire chemistry set -- which is how I view the body -- in balance. > >>> " The smart thing is to take every step available > >>> > >>> > >>now > >> > >> > >>>to improve one's > >>>health condition and slow down the aging > >>> > >>> > >>processes. > >> > >> > >>>Resveratrol, > >>>anti-oxidants, proper nutrition, hormones, > >>> > >>> > >>exercise, > >> > >> > >>>fish oil, and > >>>dozens of other supplements all work toward this > >>> > >>> > >>goal. > >> > >> > >>>To not make > >>>use of all of these currently available tactics is > >>> > >>> > >>a > >> > >> > >>>blunder that > >>>will come back to haunt these thick heads.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2004 Report Share Posted December 17, 2004 Do you have any side effects? eg, skin problems? Lately, I have skin issues I have never had before and suspect hormone supplements w/o any real effort at substantiation.

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 It seems a hard arguement regarding benefits of NT living as opposed to SAD diet lifestyle that apparently has allowed irresponsible nutrition and STILL longer life than our ancestors. However consider that not ALL our ancestors had a well balanced diet, clean water, survivable work condition, sanitary environment .... and extra ordinary medical intervention. If you consider that people living in urban settings lived with open sewers, non-fresh food supply, coal and wood smoke filled 'homes " , bed bugs, lice, fleas in their bedding, bugs and fine organic particles falling on them through the night to clog their respatory system, cold drafts, etc. Add to it that cheap food was the mainstay, mono menu, mostly gruel, bread and what produce like cabbage, onions , turnips or what ever was at hand. Hardly a nutritional balanced diet...and little quality meat or seafood for the most part. Yes , the food back then did not have pesticides, artificial chemical preservatives (although heavy salting and nitrites was common), or untested genetic manipulation (they did do genetic manipulation by cross breeding, such as the Romans breeding sweet almonds which dont have the natural anti cancer chemicals). But then they did not as a rule rotate crops, re-enrich the soils from concentrated farming or provide steady irrigation. Yes, there were pockets of fine nutitional living...but not that common. So with the advent of more accessible food distribution, albeit not perfect, it was better than they ever had before. Now imagine with the modern marvels AND edducated nutritional eatting available to us today, what healthier lifestyle we can enjoy. Environmental hazards are less in many ways, our workplaces generally less opportunity for maiming or death. In the old days a simple accident like breaking a leg, was often a death sentence. Today, most survive heart attacks and even kidney transplants adding another 20-30 years sometimes to the lifespan. If we marry the tech with the NT what a GREATER situation we would have. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Hi , There are folks here who have children who have appeared to have outgrown . For example, my son fevered for about 2 to 2.5 years and has not had a fever since June 2006. Of course, there is always the chance that the fevers can come back . . . but we can only hope not. So there is a light at the end of the tunnel. in Tampa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
