Re: Sharon's LDN update and life update

[Guest guest]

I had a pt that did that. I would fix her med box by taking all her meds out of her box, as i put the pills in the medbox I'd put the bottle in the lock box. If something that needed called in for the next week I would sit it to the left of the box. When my pill of bottles were empty, then i READ THE SCRIPT#'S to the pt's husband and then put those in the lock box. That pt had a habit of taking too much of her pain or nerve pills so the bottles were kept locked up. The other nice thing is if you go to the hopital like I had to you just pick up your case and when they ask what you take you give it to them.

Exactly! Being a home health nurse, if I had to send pt pt out the EMT's need that info right then in case the need to administer something. Really, we all should have a med alert bracelet so if we're in an accident they'll now to look in wallets or call the 800 # for more info.

I don't carry a purse anymore, though when I first started have balance issues,

I carried a backpack rather than a purse. The backpack was great, I could

gather up ALL my pills [i didn't take all kinds of natural supplements for

fatigue] and bells & whistles and carry them with me wherever I went. I've

always been one to carry a bottle of my favorite drink with me too. [Was at a

funeral home at one time, when my cousins walked into the room where I was, and

one said to the other.. " Ask Donna, she's always got a stash " ... did the heads

turn to look at me!!!!... she meant the something to drink in my purse stashed

away... lol]....... I'm not sure I could even carry a backpack now without it

causing me to lose my balance.

As for the doctors asking all sorts of questions.. like what medications are you

taking... I always thought they were being a donkey-head asking me when it's

right there in front of them on the chart (at least what I'm SUPPOSED to be

taking lol).. then I read somewhere that believe it or not, it's part of the ESS

testing thing to rate us on that Disability Scale thing... If we can't tell them

what we take, that's cognitive dysfunction... at one point in time, I could have

told them what each medication was, what dosage and how often.. I'm not sure

that would happen today though.

There is a method to all their madness even if it seems that the method is only

to drive us mad with their questions.

Hey Cassy,

That would really be something, huh? If that IS what it is; may be finally the answer for all your pain and difficulties...wow...This is REALLY worth pursuing.

I was just checking in real quick-the hotel has internet, so-wanted to see how my buds are doing. The wedding I went to, my nephew, Dan, and his new wife, Jodie, was incredible. They had a traditional Jewish wedding, as she is Jewish, and it was so moving, and so special. They had a woman rabbi, and she had such joy and power and grace in her voice and the entire service was so special. The Springfield Country Club in PA is amazing--beautiful, white gloves all around--the waitresses--I felt like a queen. The food was really good, although last night we all felt a bit queasy.

I can't sleep on the bed here, in lots of pain! I miss my water bed! LOL! Only bed I can sleep on. I'm leaving early as I have to get back and practice Easter songs with my little nursery school, as our program for their parents is this Wed., and I've had to cancel so many with not feeling well, MRI's, bloodwork or dr's appts! Also have physical therapy at 12:30 to help me address balance/let weakness.

if you have Medicare, your Dr can write you a RX for one - that's how I got mine. It has 4 wheels, a seat and a small basket. My co-pay was only $20 and the cost of the walker was $140-something. Look in your phone book to see if there are any agencies that help with that sort of thing. We have an office for the National MS Soc., Office on Aging, Center for Independent Living ...... and this is a very small town

a ...... in Michigan

Cassy,

Have you tried eBay? Also our Salvation Army or Goodwill from time to time has wheelchairs, walkers and bath seats. Also I wonder if www.overstock.com might have something. Ot do you have a FreeCycle in your area? You can ask for things as well as give them away. The kids have gotten some nice stuff.

too much of her pain or nerve pills so the bottles were kept locked up. The

other nice thing is if you go to the hopital like I had to you just pick up your

case and when they ask what you take you give it to them.

I have it locked up from the kids and I take it camping.

When I take it camping I have an ice chest in it that keeps things cool for at

When it is at home it is locked and in a closed off place in my room.

The kids all know that it is off limits.

Yes, it has a seat, but I don't know how good the pad is anymore and I think it should be cleaned up first before it could be shipped. I don't have the ability to clean it up or box it up for shipping. I sure wish I did. Any ideas? Where are you at?

I have a new physical problem....I have gall stones I see a surgeon Thursday.

FW: Re: Sharon's LDN update and life updateif you have Medicare, your Dr can write you a RX for one - that's how I got mine. It has 4 wheels, a seat and a small basket. My co-pay was only $20 and the cost of the walker was $140-something. Look in your phone book to see if there are any agencies that help with that sort of thing. We have an office for the National MS Soc., Office on Aging, Center for Independent Living ...... and this is a very small towna ...... in MichiganCassy,Have you tried eBay? Also our Salvation Army or Goodwill from time to time has wheelchairs, walkers and bath seats. Also I wonder if www.overstock.com might have something. Ot do you have a FreeCycle in your area? You can ask for things as well as give them away.

Because it would be soo unfair to misdiagnose me and she said the prventative meds on the market at this time have not been shown to make that much of a difference so I'm Possible MS still.

Geezzz.She actually said that? Well shes takn you as a pt so she must think you

either have ms or something dymelinating.UCD told me i needed a new referal to

be seen there and turned out the ms specialist said I didnt need a new one he

would see me and help me get dx'd,but the ucsf doc put in the report I dont have

Devics,ms, or any kind of dymelinating disease.Im like ok,you know for sure

how.Ive read bout people having silent lesions for many yrs.,and jus like

that,no repeat mri's nothn,but I for sure dont have them.Idiot! I DONT think he

was thinking much,he jus dismissed everything I had to say.Once im dx'd im going

to write him a letter and ask why he wrote such ridiculous things in the

report.It angers me when the docs dont take enough time to help there pt's.My

reumatologist(ive seen her twice to rule out reumatological diseases) she said

he probably didnt wana be the one to dig deeper and it was easier for him to

blame a reumatological disease like my dad had.Who

knows.... hugzz,cassy

I'm like that. My rheumatologist who should be treating the fibro doesn't want to touch me cause he says what's happening is neuro and my neuro says I should follow up with the rheumy. I've got a good PCP now that is best friends with the surgeon I use to work for and knows me as a person before I got sick and I'm just going to let him follow me for a while. He's the one handling my disability right now because he knows I can not go work a floor job as a nurse right now. And office nurses don't have it easy. I don't think my cognitive could keep up.

On another list we managed to get someone's antique treadle sewing machine from N.H. to southern Calif. She got it from her grandmother (in N.H.) when she passed but had no way to get the $$ needed to ship it so we started a relay. Someone picked it up and took it home, where another member picked it up and met another member half way between their homes.This happened a few times and is how it got to southern Ill. Someone in Mo was going to San Diego on vacation so she met the other list member half way between their homes and it sat in her garage until they left on vacation. Once they were in Calif., phone calls were made, they met for dinner, she got her machine, and was able to give ideas for great sites to visit that weren't the usual tourist traps

Yes, it has a seat, but I don't know how good the pad is anymore and I think it should be cleaned up first before it could be shipped. I don't have the ability to clean it up or box it up for shipping. I sure wish I did. Any ideas? Where are you at?
