arbojenn-your question about femara
I put this in a separate post, just in case you don't revisit the other thread: I was on Femara until May 12th (when I joined the boards here). I quit because I had ALL the side effects, from the common to the rare. I didn't even think that was possible. Plus, I had extreme mood swings and depression to top it off. I went…

Today's Joke
Two doctors, a psychiatrist and a proctologist, opened an office in a small town and put up a sign reading: "Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones: Hysterias and Posteriors." The town council was not happy with the sign, so the doctors changed it to read, "Schizoids and Hemorrhoids." This was not acceptable either, so in an effort to…

Results from Burning
Just got back from the doctor and she said the burning feeling under my arm is perfectly normal. The little bit of swelling is from post-op. She said the burning will probably be going on for quite awhile. She said there is a medicine that would help the nerves, but will wait for later for that. She said I'm healing…

Not a blonde joke for today
Baby's First Doctor Visit I hope it will give you a smile! A woman and a baby were in the doctor's examining room, waiting for the doctor to come in for the baby's first exam.
