Migraine Ugh :(
I have had a migraine since yesterday, and, I can't seem to get rid of it. I keep taking Excedrin, and, it has helped, but, it is still here. I feel like someone is inside my head pounding it with a hammer to get out. What does anyone else do for these? I hate to call my doctor. I do have some strong pain pills I could…

Finally! Reconstructon on Wednesday
Hi, Please wish me luck and send positive thoughts my way. I'm finally having the muscle expander removed and a silicone implant put in on Wednesday. I'm also having a breast lift to the other side and my port taken out. What a milestone this will be! I'm excited and scared at the same time. My doctor hasn't told me much…

Brava reconstruction put on hold for now.......
Hi all, I went to see my plastic surgeon to have my pre-op visit since my surgery was to be this Friday, the 16th. They pulled my fiance and I into an office and explained that they can't be my plastic surgeon because my new pcp (primary care physician) won't o.k. the surgery. My pcp said I can't see this doctor because he…

Why do some people have to have always have attention drawn to themselves? Are they that lonely?
I've always wondered why people always need to get attention. If they don't get it from others, they make sure that it is gotten somehow, even if they have to make up stuff. Is it because they are so lonely and insecure? Wondering what your thoughts are on it,or, if you even know people like this. Hugs, Jan

Mammograms - please spread the word
I have been hearing from patients that doctors are discouraging getting mammos before 50 and every year. Most people will put off a mammo for any excuse. Personally, I was diagnosed at 47 just a month after my little sister's doctor told her she doesn't need a mammo every year just because our older sister was diagnosed at…

Clear Mamogram,,,
I am so happy and relieved .. my mammogram came back clean. No cancer in breast. I had the mammo done on Sept. 1st and have been waiting for the letter to get here. I was a nervous wreck. My GP sent me an email and gave me the results. He was afraid the mail wouldn't get here until Monday because of the holiday. I am so…

When it is time to put friendships to rest.....
This girlfriend and I have worked together, gone on trips together, have been friends for 14 years, good friends for about 6. We have plans to go to a show out of town this week. One of the first things she asked is if I am wearing my wig. Said no... then there was silence. (I always wear a cute hat or scarf). Then she…

stage 4 and disability
Has anyone applied for ssdi? How long did it take to get it? I've applied for it about a month ago and just waiting. I know it can take months. Being out of work is not good. So much more to worry about. There's no way I could possibly work now, I can't even drive. I feel like I'm in a constant hangover, mornings are bad…

Flooding in the Northeast -how are you?
I'm located near 3 rivers the Unadilla, Chenango, and the Susquehanna. All bridges are closed and it looks like they might be for a few days. We are safe here on our hill, but so many areas nearby have been inundated by Irene and now Lee. A few towns no longer exist. All roads closed, state of emergency. So - roll call!…

update / Xeloda and Tykerb
After 14 days of not feeling too great, this week has been much better! Tykerb is taken every day (1250mg) for as long as I stay on this treatment. With my doctor's approval, I switched to taking it in the evenings, 1 hour before supper instead of in the mornings before breakfast. Xeloda is taken both morning and evening,…
