Guest guest Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 cy you are too much, ha ha. karen could it still hurt after 4 years? I had my cabbage, open heart by-pass back in 2007 and then coded ten days later. they probably broke some ribs jumping up and down on my chest, but 26 minutes later I rejoined the living. But this split on my chest has never stopped hurting. I can press on it in certain places and it will hurt really bad if I push to hard. I heard that when the weather is cold or wet that this can make a place you had cut open on your body hurt. is this so? Will the pain ever go away? I have wondered if I could have some kind of authoridus in the place where they wired me back together. I told the heart doc, but he just says after all my chest had to go through that month he isn't surprised that it hurts and that is all he has ever said about it. also have wondered if that spot where they wired me together, could it ever get infected after all these years? I go for a chemical stress test next week because I have been having some chest pain. but when they run the test they run in the hospital nothing shows up that says there is a problem with the heart. Now my A1C was 13 about six weeks ago and the doc put me on time release metforman, 1000 milligrams twice a day. Do you think this could be causing the chest pain? I know it has been upsetting my stomach in a bad way for a week now. I certainly hope the A1C will come down if I got to put up with the sick feeling like I'm going to lose my cookies. then in the hospital they put me on the purple pill because I told them it feels like there is a knot in my throat all the time. they said that is a complaint of folks who have reflux problems. Well this little pill is higher then a cat's back. I only pay $42, but my insurance pays $170 each month. I bet it won't be long when I will be in the doughnut hole as they call it. When that happens I will have to make a choice to pay the difference or go back to the knot in my throat feeling. the purple pill has helped that feeling go away though. Well anyway was hoping some of you may have an answer for me. thanks for any advice you might have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 You are very right Amy! When you lose weight through special diets and all of that, as soon as you stop the weight comes back! That is why it is so hard, because you have to change your eating habits, change to something that you can live with for the rest of your life! That is my problem too! I love to eat! Most people eat to live, I live to eat! Smile! No matter how you look at it, it isn't easy to change your whole eating habit, but, I can tell you that it can be done! As we have said several times already, it can not be done over night! It takes lots of patience, determination, and a lot of support from those around you! You know the saying, the journey of a 1000 miles starts with a single step! Well, that is very true! So, all I can say, stop beating up on yourself, and start your change, very gradually, and just focus on one day at a time! When you get up every day, focus on how you are going to manage that day, and the next day, start over again! How are you going to get through that day! It is not easy, it takes a lot of power, but you can do it! could it still hurt after 4 years?

Since I lived on a farm for several years and learned to milk I feel qualified to pass along this advice. Coconut milk is very special hence not many breeds of cow can produce it. The Guernsey, for one, do give this milk with some cows. Few people realize that most cows have 6 tits, not 4. It is the left back tit which can produce the special coconut milk. It also requires a trained milk hand in order to get the cow to release this milk. In case you were curious, the right back tit can give chocolate milk.

Since I lived on a farm for several years and learned to milk I feel qualified to pass along this advice. Coconut milk is very special hence not many breeds of cow can produce it.

It also requires a trained milk hand in order to get the cow to release this milk. In case you were curious, the right back tit can give chocolate milk.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Nurse Pat, Surely you don't think I was kidding do you? (LOLLLOLLLOLLOLLOLLOL) I had my children convinced that they could get chocolate milk from the cow and it was not until we happened to visit one of my aunts who actually had a cow that they figured out that the chocolate milk required that you feed the cow special food in order to get it. (LOLLLOLLLOLLOLLOLOL) I had not milked a cow in probably 30 years but I did get her to give out some milk. I have no idea but she was probably also messed up for several days after I left.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 That's probably true!! But that could kill you too!! Smile! could it still hurt after 4 years? I had my cabbage, open heart by-pass back in 2007 and then coded ten days later. they probably broke some ribs jumping up and down on my chest, but 26 minutes later I rejoined the living. But this split on my chest has never stopped hurting. I can press on it in certain places and it will hurt really bad if I push to hard. I heard that when the weather is cold or wet that this can make a place you had cut open on your body hurt. is this so? Will the pain ever go away? I have wondered if I could have some kind of authoridus in the place where they wired me back together. I told the heart doc, but he just says after all my chest had to go through that month he isn't surprised that it hurts and that is all he has ever said about it. also have wondered if that spot where they wired me together, could it ever get infected after all these years? I go for a chemical stress test next week because I have been having some chest pain. but when they run the test they run in the hospital nothing shows up that says there is a problem with the heart. Now my A1C was 13 about six weeks ago and the doc put me on time release metforman, 1000 milligrams twice a day. Do you think this could be causing the chest pain? I know it has been upsetting my stomach in a bad way for a week now. I certainly hope the A1C will come down if I got to put up with the sick feeling like I'm going to lose my cookies. then in the hospital they put me on the purple pill because I told them it feels like there is a knot in my throat all the time. they said that is a complaint of folks who have reflux problems. Well this little pill is higher then a cat's back. I only pay $42, but my insurance pays $170 each month. I bet it won't be long when I will be in the doughnut hole as they call it. When that happens I will have to make a choice to pay the difference or go back to the knot in my throat feeling. the purple pill has helped that feeling go away though. Well anyway was hoping some of you may have an answer for me. thanks for any advice you might have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
