I'm tired of cooking/preparing 3 meals a day. It's just the two of us but boy oh boy can that woman eat!! She stays slimish, I get fattish. It's bad enough I do everything here much less start making her one thing and me the other. At times I feel guilty when I buy her fast food cuz of the nutritional value....not to mention I eat it too.
I laughed when I was reading the results from my DNA testing. They said that I had sticky wax buildup. DNA testing is fascinating.
Some things are strange. I have one dimple, my daughter has one dimple. That showed up in the testing too.
How can they determine as much as they do, listing characteristics such as my blue eyes and other features from DNA?
So, he calls Ochsner and they say that it is approved. My husband was concerned so he kept asking questions and spoke with someone else who said that he wasn’t approved because of lack of information.
This came about because he deals with kidney stones. When he was in the hospital they spotted some abnormalities on his liver and his doctor ordered an MRI.
So now he has to speak with his doctor again.
I know in the past, with health issues that I have had. My doctor had to write letters to the insurance company before I could get approval for certain procedures.
It’s such a pain dealing with insurance companies at times.
When it starts
What you ate
What you did the day before
I have had chronic ringing (tinnitus) in my ears since my 20’s. I do have some hearing loss. I have horrible allergies and asthma.
We think his first was made worse by dehydration. (EMS to the hospital) Now he gets wee bouts, typically upon getting up, and they fade over an hour or the day.
Note that there are manoeuvres other than the Epley roll and it is directional. Sometimes I could see his eyes twitch or track towards the affected ear, which indicted which way to roll him.
Instinct tells me I should probably drink more, but that's just guessing.
change in season ? Pressures , humidity. Temperature ?
I know season change effects asthma
Llama , hoping you get better soon too .
No apologies are necessary. We fully understand. Sending many hugs your way!
Thanks for the kind words but I didn't do it alone. I reconciled with my former husband and it's the second best thing I ever did. The best thing I ever did was marrying him in the first place. God only knows what I'd be today if things had continued on as they were.
@NHWM
I have to ask. Is your friend who's the drug rep a very attractive woman? When I lived out in California years ago I knew a girl who was a drug rep and went around to doctor's offices. She told me I'd be good at that job. The only requirements for that job are you have to be hot, smile a lot and be flirty and flattering to the doctors.
No thanks. I had a job and I'm not great at sucking up or stroking someone's ego.
I know people who have done aqua therapy. The water is soothing and it helps with achieving fluid movements.
Accupuncture offered instant warmth & relief (bit sore later that night). Then mostly gone. Was like a reset. Apparently not everyone is that lucky, it doesn't work for all or takes a few sessions.
I added warm water pool walking & now do regularly which seems to keep it at bay.
Llama, I hope you find relief. It sucks.
Your statements are so true.
Many times I have been waiting in my doctor’s office to see her and a pharmaceutical sales rep comes in with a briefcase full of different meds to show the doctor!
I have a friend who is a pharmaceutical sales representative. She says that she is a ‘legal’ drug dealer, 🤣 who gives out samples all day long to the doctors.
My friend will occasionally play golf with some of her clients (doctors) and they consistently chat about drugs. It’s a huge business with lots of marketing going on.
