Guest guest Posted May 31, 2000 Report Share Posted May 31, 2000 Hey all, Thanks to Charlie and Rena, and everyone who sent me a birthday message. I'm sorry I haven't been around much; the college life is somewhat stressful and my health has been poor. I'm still here but these days it's best to drop me a direct note at chaospearl@... instead of waiting for me to read the digests. :\ I'm living in Oregon at the moment, but I'll be back home in NY over the summer. I have a second hip-replacement surgery scheduled for June 21st. It's a little depressing to know I have to go through that again after just having the first one in January, but I keep telling myself after this, I'll be able to do things. Like, walk for instance, without perpetually listing to starboard. cheers Jenni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 31, 2000 Report Share Posted May 31, 2000 Jenni, Best of luck to you. My mother in law has had a hip replacement and even though the surgery and recovery was difficult, she is able to walk without the awful pain she was having before. I hope you begin to feel better real soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hubby is much better at it than I am, so he helps with the torture. If you can stand to let your leg hair grow out long enough, it's way better than an epilady!!

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2001 Report Share Posted June 6, 2001 my son bobby (ds) is 12 now--he had the same surgery when he was 9 and it helped him immensely. he did have sleep apnea as well. bobby's recovery was slow (about 2 weeks) but he certainly sleeps better now which has improved his health overall. i highly recommend it. the anesthesia was not a problem.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 Dear Nina and Debbie le: It was so comforting to know that other people are having the severe feeding problems with apraxia as we are. Why can't the pediatrican's figure this out early on instead of waiting. My son, Jordan is 21 months and 22 lbs. He barely eats one meal a day. He eats yogurt, cookies, and cheerios. That's it! We are taking him to St. ph's Feeding and Swallowing Disorders program in Paterson for help and of course, speech therapy ! - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2002 Report Share Posted March 7, 2002 I've used Ambien and I might as well eaten a Snicker candy bar. My son takes it and it knocks him flat. Just depends on your personal chemistry, I guess. in Des Moines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2002 Report Share Posted March 7, 2002 I have tried Valium and find it provides such a long drugged out feeling. I prefer Antivan. I've used Ambien for sleep, but still have better sucess with Antivan. Chet Re: Digest Number 499 > Does anyone use AMBIEN for sleep?

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2002 Report Share Posted October 28, 2002 Thanks for the Appleton report. It was very encouraging. The Mallard Fillmore cartoon strip that is syndicated in newspapers across the country did several days worth of panels, a month or so ago, making fun of school districts that actually pushed mind control drugs on kids. Say, isn't there a zero tolerance law forbidding drug pushing in schools? Actually, according to a Rabbi from Denver, who was guest speaker at our church recently, the Bible promotes a healthy diet as the best way to combat illness. Makes good sense to me. Dawn, I just received the above note from my brother. I wonder if you or anyone else saw the cartoon strip that he mentioned. I've never heard of it.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Hi Kathy, I take Armour thyroid. It comes in various size doses, but i take 90 mg per day. It's a non-synthetic (derived from animals) form of thyroid medication. It's been on the market much longer than any of the synthetic brands, and it's really cheap! --- kathy hawks <martinichef2@...> wrote: > Anne, what is the name of the thyroid medication you > take? > > hypothyroidism wrote: > > There are 2 messages in this issue. > > Topics in this digest: > > 1.
