Hello Hello one and all
omg all those words... thanks a whole bunch!! at least there is a lot
of time to enter
star... the book store; is that the one in Antique Alley area. When we toured LA
Monroe was our first stop and hubby had to remind me that we were just beginning
our trip lol I walked out with a whole bunch of books.
Had a virus/trojan problem today; Bingo on Facebook. A tiny little message
commenting on my wins; I clicked on it & that's when the problems started.
Has taken the better part of the day, running all my scans to get rid of 'em.
Ohhh it's 8 and time for PS ... see you all later
Thanks for the new words you all.
He told you to "EAT A LOAD OF RED MEAT" ??????????Quote:

That is a HORRIBLE thing to tell someone with your condition, every piece of literature and nursing book I have ever read mentions almost immediately the link between red meat consumption and increase in every damn symptom that makes your condition unbearable.
I'd leave that doctor ASAP. I know that is easy for me to say since I know you are a huge distance from care of any kind.. but who knows what other kind of crap he is going to foist on you in his ignorance.
Shaman... you sign up for it at:Quote:

It is essentially just a rewards program. You sign up for the "Sheknows" newsletters and search the partner sites for the prize words. Once you are signed up, you go to the word entry page, and start entering the prize words. They are worth different point values based on where you got them from.. you can enter up to 5 words per hour.
The best thing for you as a new member would be... all of us in the thread are right on all the words almost immediately when they are released, and you never really need to go looking for them yourself. A while back we had some complaints about how we chat too much in this thread (LOL) so Boo started a wiki JUST for posting Points & Prizes words. I am the "Official Wikikeeper" and I glean the words from the thread and post them on there. The newest words will stay up in bold font for 24 hours, so you always can tell what is new and what you've already gotten. The link to the wiki is in my signature.
The words all have a certain expiry date. Sign up, and start by using the ones with the soonest expiry date. Soon you'll be all caught up, and then you can just check the wiki to get the newest ones.
There is always a big list of prizes you can use your points to redeem for. It takes a while to save up enough points for a prize, but it is pretty easy, especially since all the nice ladies in this thread do all the word collecting, and I put them up all organized for ya :)
If you have any questions once you join up, just ask in the thread.. we are used to P&P confusing people, their site can be a little wonky till you get used to it.
Mew.
I`m on 300mg of Ferrous Gluconate, which are the round green pills. Sorry to barge in on the conversation, but wouldn`t a dose through an IV be a better bet for someone sensitive to the iron pills (not as bad as it sounds, Ricki)? Or perhaps a shot of EPO? Had both when I was on dialysis cause I tended to go anaemic.Quote:

How are you feeling these days? Hopefully not overdoing it? :)
Spent the day running around with my friend (she still is really tired & feels better if there's someone with her helping). Needless to say I'm tired now. I wanted to watch a movie to relax, but my cable (is digital still considered cable?) just went out. :rant: Grrr.
OK, I have a stupid question. If I wanna send a pm to more than 1 person, I just list their user names in the field separated by commas, right? Now, will person A see that I've also sent a note to person B? Or is it like bcc'ing someone? :-~ I really gotta start exploring the features on this site.
Gonna take it easy tomorrow, got a crazy weekend ahead of me (triple booked on Sat, double booked on Sun & had to turn down a couple of invites, why does everything happen on the same day?!). :P
Hope everyone had a good day! Off to bed now, since the brats are complaining my noisy typing is keeping them awake. :lolsign:
Good night, all!
Thanks for all the new words..
Dd is bummed might not be able to do track tomorrow, she fell funny at school today. I think she pulled a muscle and shes worried about not winning ribbons so shes upset. Never fails she can be so sick but still be worried about school stuff..lol
Hope everyone has a good upcoming weekend
Ok lol whats up with swagbucks and all the codewords that i've almost missed every single one of lol. Did manage to get one today don't think any yesterday tho and there were a ton. <BIG SIGH> guess I have to wake up some. Went in for my new rheumatoid arth. med today and lol the 5 hours was for the infusion plus I had to see the dr & lab so spent about 7 hours there some of it cause my dh had to drop me off a little early as there are several people out at work so he couldn't be too late. It went ok though I did manage to sleep a couple hours though during the infusion which really helped pass the time. My potassium was very low again so he added potassium to my infusion so hopefully that will help me since I've been so tired but not sleeping well. He also gave me some different sleeping meds to try. I am so glad I dont' have to go for the chest CT scan until the afternoon tired of these very early morning appointments. My rheumatoid dr wrote a note for them to send him the results of the Cat scan and said he'd talk to my primary doc and see if he wants him to let me know the results so I won't be sitting here waiting on pins and needles. Anyway am hoping they will get the results right away.
Thanks for all the words every. Have a great TGIF!!!
They typically don't use IV Iron of any variety for Colitis OR Chron's... just because it can cause excessive bleeding in the intestinal tract. I think a good doctor might let her try it next if her levels don't come up. They give you a small dose then watch for signs of trouble (36-42 hour monitoring in hospital) Then give repetitive doses after that if no trouble occurs.Quote:

The red meat thing is a Colitis only restriction, since no part of the intestine/colon is able to break down the red meat properly.
It IS a shame that as young as she is, Ricki hasn't been helped more by her doctors. She isn't even on the Prednisone that most people are on (along with the medication that she is currently taking) and I think that it is really bad medicine on the part of her doctor. She should have at least been offered the IV ferrous by now, but of course her doctor is so shoddy that he isn't even giving her the proper ORAL kind, I doubt he'd go in for IV. *sigh*
I wish I could go advocate for her and shake folders in people's faces, but I think she lives too far away :(
