Guest guest Posted February 2, 2003 Report Share Posted February 2, 2003 I had surgery for a hernia in March and I had no problems at all. In fact, they estimated that I'd probably spend about 3 days in the hospital, but they let me go home the same day (after only a few hours in recovery) because I was doing so well. I was sure happy to hear that, as I hate hospitals. I seemed to heal quickly with no trouble. My bg was low at the time, because I didn't feel like eating much. I ate lots of regular popcicles with no problems. Usually, I don't eat them. It was a county hospital and I often wonder if they just let me leave early because they needed the bed or if I really was doing well. But I seemed to be doing great. They were supposed to give me instructions about changing the bandage often, but of course they didn't. I was afraid to mess with it since they didn't say to and didn't realize that it needed to be changed. I went back in 10 days to get the stitches out and they were horrified that I hadn't changed bandages in all that time. I had to take antibiotics for a week, just in case. But I never had a bit of trouble. The surgery only cost $50 and I guess you can't expect decent health care for that much. It was probably worth about that. They said not to eat breakfast or take my diabetes medicine the morning of the surgery. It was scheduled for 9:30 am, but they didn't get to me until after noon. By that time I was starving! And talk about stress. But, all told, everything went very well.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 Nothing wrong in suggesting alternatives that work for you. However remember that it works for you and you alone. Everyone is individual and responds differently. Additionally it would be wrong to encourage anyone to change their regime without seeking proper medical advice. This is because diabetes is a serious condition that if managed incorrectly can lead to very nasty and painful things. Suggest what works for you but always say, that it works for you and that others need to seek doc's advice before changing management plan.

Hi , If something works for you, it is okay to share it with the group, as long as you are not selling the product. Always say, " this works for me, but it may not work for you, and always remind people that before starting anything new, herbs, vitamins, etc that they should discuss it with their doctor first. In the past, we have had some ridiculous suggestions such as sun bathing naked in the breeze, or some such thing, would cure you of diabetes. We all know that is not going to work. (We all had a good laugh with this one, so it may have helped reduce the stress level for some of our members.) We have also had people discuss using cinnamon, green tea to control bg's and for some people the cinnamon does seem to work. I am now seeing commercials for green tea capsules for weight loss. As long as it is not a " miracle cure " you are permitted to post it. Eunice - List Owner/Co-Moderator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2003 Report Share Posted September 13, 2003 Best bet is to talk with your OBGYN. However, there is something called paramenopause that begins around 30 that mimics menopause. There is a blood test your doctor can order that will let you know if you are ovulating. Good luck.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2003 Report Share Posted October 5, 2003 Ronda, No question is a dumb question. I think if it were me I would stay home unless your nausea was completely taken care of. To me there would be nothing worse than trying to concentrate feeling nauseated. But the final decision is up to you. As for Betty I think you did the right thing and explained yourself quite well. Just being there and offering hugs is a big help when you are down. Bless her for being there for you.

As I shared with you I am taking my final chemo treatment until January. I have had a hard time keeping anything down and the doctors are aware and are trying to find the right medication to help me. The person who is over me at work told me that I should ask if I can leave town for three days. I have a conference that is mandatory for me to attend for three day Tuesday through Thursday morning. But, since I have had problems keeping anything down she feel that maybe I shouldn't go to far from home. To tell you the truth I was looking forward to this time away to keep my mind off of the surgery on Friday. I don't know what I should do what would you do if you were me?Also, how do you tell someone that you look up to and love that all you need them to do is support you by encouraging words. The person who is over me her name is Betty and I was told by one of her family members that she has been calling them crying because it is so hard to watch someone you care about go through surgery and chemo. She asked me today what can she do to take the pain away. I told her all she could do is encourage me when I feel like telling the doctors I don't want to do these treatment any longer. Betty reminded me this is what is going to save my life and fighting cancer isn't easy and I told her you are correct I just need your love and encouragement. Does anyone else have another way I can explain it to her? I think she feels like she has to physically do something for me when all I need is support and a hug. I don't know! I appreciate all that she has done for me since February when I started this fight for the second time and now that I am going into the three time I appreciate her even more. It's hard when you are single and you have no family close by and she is always there for me which I appreciate.I hope my questions are to dumb! Thanks for listening.Hugs and Prayers,Ronda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 6, 2003 Report Share Posted October 6, 2003 I would let my body tell me whether or not I should make the trip...if you think you can, go for it, but remember that you are having surgery the next day so you might want to be wary of being in a large group because of the danger of " catching " something that would delay your surgery. About your friend, I would continue to tell her what you have been and let her go from there...some people have a need to do more and if she is one of them, let her...it will help her and you can probably need all the extras you can get at this time. And if she is crying, then that is okay too...sometimes we need to cry for ourselves and for others and she may feeling a bit of relief about this with the crying. I do think her family/friends should not have told you this...she is crying and probably would not want them to go back and tell you. Don't let it upset you, some people cry a lot easier than others...I am a crier myself...doris > Hi Everyone, > > I have a question and I hope it is not a dumb questions.

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2003 Report Share Posted November 12, 2003 Ronda, I would definitely tell her to go to another dr for a second opinion. A breast specialist would probably be the best if there is one close by. I don't see why they couldn't do a mastectomy. There are other ladies that have had lumpectomies and then end up having a mastectomy. Keep us posted. hugs nne Breast Cancer Patients Soul Mates for Lifehttp://www.geocities.com/chucky5741/breastcancerpatients.html Check out my breast cancer ornaments at:http://www.geocities.com/chucky5741/bcornament.htmlalso check out my other ornaments and lots of nice gifts at:http://www.cancerclub.com Question Hello Everyone: I have a friend who has had to lumpectomy with in two years. This first time it was cancer and fibrocystic breast so she went through chemotherapy. Then this year she had another lumpectomy and the test came back as fibrocystic and she is tired of all these lumpectomy and now she has another lump in the same place and she wants the surgeon to do mastectomy so she doesn't have to deal with having these lumpectomies every couple years. The surgeon said this can't be done. My opinion is that if she wants it done why not it is her body. I agree with her I would be tired of all the cost of the surgeries even though she has insurance. What do you think I should tell my friend? Any advice would be great. Thanks Ronda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 12, 2003 Report Share Posted November 12, 2003 My surgeon also said no to double mastectomy unless it is indicated as being needed. doris > Hello Everyone: > > I have a friend who has had to lumpectomy with in two years.

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 Ronda, I would think that the Dr would talk to whom ever you choose to be your support. I cant believe that he wont see you. I agree with you in getting a second opinion. When are good friend had a stroke she had no family, and the Dr let us sit in on all discussions about what was happening and what her decision would be, he even ask our opinions. I think your Dr is wrong. Hope the rest of your day goes better Jeana Question Hello Everyone:I got a call that has really upset me today. To tell you the truth everything went wrong from the time I placed my foot on the ground. I got a call from my doctor, I have completed my chemotherapy but I knew that I would be having more treatment starting January because the cancer is not gone. As you all know I just went through a mastectomy with my boss and good friend at my side. Well, Betty had a request for me and I said what and she asked if we could sit down with my doctor and discuss this next set of chemotherapy because it is going to be stronger then the ones I just went through and Betty wanted to know what she could do to help me through and what to expect from me and what responsibilities that she may need to take over for me for a while. So, I talk to the doctor and he had no problem with sitting down and talking with us and Betty was grateful. Until this morning I got a call from him saying he wouldn't do this at all Betty is not blood related and therefore none of this is her business. I told the doctor that it was because she is my support since my parents live so far from me. So now he will not see us so I told him I would be getting a second opinion and will get back with him. I also found another lump this morning as well. I was talking to Betty and she wanted me to ask if anyone has ever had problem with a doctor not talk to a friend or who ever you wanted to be with you before? Also, am I wrong for going for a second or even third opinion?The rest of the day was mainly been complaints that you get from older people from our church who feel nothing gets done right if I don't do it if you know what I mean. Also I was working on some homework and they told me the program that I was creating would never work what encouragement. I just need some encouraging words. Betty sent me home to rest she said I look tired and maybe things will go better for tonight's meeting if I rest a little so off to bed I go. Thanks for listening.Ronda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 Ronda, Thats terrible that he won't let Betty sit in if it is your choice. Now I could see if someone just asked him without your permission. That would be a totally different story. I think he is being very unreasonable. I would go for a second and third opinion if it makes you feel better and maybe stick with one of those drs. I am sorry you are having such a rough day. You are in my prayers.

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 I agree with Vickie. The doctor cannot tell you who you can have with you. It isn't his place or anyone else's. The next time you are in the office tell them to give you a release paper that you can list who you want to be able to get information if they call or visit with you. My sister did that for me and her daughter. Granted we are blood but she could have put the mailman down and they will not question it.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 It is probable with the new law about medical information being released only with a signed release form may be what is keeping your doctor from seeing you and your friend. My husband had to sign a release at our pharmacy so I could pick up his medication and the pharmacy has known us for years! Recently my mother-in-law called my father-in-law's doctor (her doctor too) for some clarification on something and the doctor said he couldn't tell her because she was not the patient.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 I have already put her name as a release from the very beginning since January of this year. I don't understand and I am so mad that I am getting a second opinion the second of December in the afternoon in-between my kettle runs. Thanks, one thing I am going to make clear to this doctor from the very beginning is that I want Betty to be informed of each step that I have to go through like he is talking to me. I hope that doesn't sound to mean. But it is my life and she has the right to know what is going with me and what she can expect from me as well.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 Ronda, I have a friend in Grand Rapids, well actually Wyoming. Maybe when we go see her the next time, maybe we can go up to Muskegon & meet you depending on how you're feeling. I'll let you know! Kerri Re: Question Kerri,I am from Muskegon about 45 minutes south of Grand Rapids. I hope this is helpful!Sorry everyone my fingers are so numb on my left hand that sometimes I send a message before I am done. Please forgive me.Ronda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 Thank you Vickie, I will let Sandy know. She is supposed to go in the morning to get what hair she has left cut off. She's been putting it off but she is ready to take that step. Thanks, Sheri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
