Yes, the blog got to be too popular and took up all my time and energy so I gave it up. The fibromyalgia continues to be a problem, or many problems but the latest thing with me is having a yeast...
I'm here, present. Cancer free for over five years now. No treatment of any kind although at first they wanted to remove my breast after they took out the cancerous lump. I've had PET/CT scans and...
Hi. Thanks for thinking of me once again. I've not been around anywhere actually except around my home with my family having come from all over the country to visit. (Well, some from NM, some from OH...
You two are so nice and everyone I've seen here has been so nice as well - thank you from the bottom of my heart. I guess I'm a bit surprised - just as I was surprised when after going to the...
I'm here , I'm here!!! I've been checking in here from time to time and trying to keep putting one foot in front of the other, no matter what. It's not been easy, but boy it's good to know you're...
I have adhesions in my pelvic area that have been causing me pain over the years and sometimes it's so bad I am nearly doubled over in pain and I can certainly empathize with how you are feeling. I'm...
Or, if you have a yahoo account, you can create a yahoo photos account and upload your pictures there. I'd love to see the bracelets too!...
I used to use Norton and found it to be a huge resource hog and have switched to AVG. It used to be AVG Free, but I think there is a charge for it now. Along with that I use and run Spybot and...
I had some real trouble with all the bras I had before when I was in pain after surgery and I went to Victoria's Secret and explained to the nice lady there and asked for help. She was so nice and...
I haven't had the surgeries you have had, but I did have an excisional biopsy and since then I've had a hard time eating. I don't know if it has to do with the biopsy or with my other medical issues,...
Much much gratitude! Thanks SO much....
I'm glad to hear it all went well for you dbab. I'm in agreement with Tavish from what I've heard and experienced. Biopsy is the only sure way to know in detail under the microscope. When I found out...
I've been feeling pretty lousy and like I didn't fit in here (or anywhere!) given my attitude but today my husband and I went to a new doctor, got another opinion from a new oncologist who was very...
Yay for you Ellen! You've got such a good heart - you are much appreciated. Thank you thank you and thanks to everyone here. I am so glad you are here and a part of my life today. Huggles for...
Welcome Lou. The only thing I can add is that we know and we care - we can empathize and have probbably had many of the same feelings. Peace, love and understanding, Nora...
Yay!!! Congratulations to you and best wishes with your recovery process. Thanks for the smile today, once again, I'm just so glad that you folks keep sharing your journeys with us here. It helps so...
I'm thinking of you today and sending out postive vibes for you during your surgery and for your recovery as well Martha. Gentle hugs!...
When I found a small lump under my breast, the gyn doctor sent me right away for mammogram where they found something which led them to giving me ultrasound as well. (The gyn doctor set an...
Aw!! More smiles and gentle hugs for you from here in NY /community/emoticons/smile.gif - Huge congratulations to you and thanks for sharing your journey here with us....
Yay Linda!! I'm not sure of the etiquette here but I feel the words HELL YES coming to mind after reading your post. Right on and thank you for your perspective. Big hugs to you and congratulations...
Hahaha! No, when I click my heels three times, the only place I get taken to is the Finger Lakes in New York state. I appreciate the smile today /community/emoticons/cool.gif I'm on my way to the...
I've got the coffee and tea a'cookin' , when did you say your arrival time is? I could use some help around here for sure, but I'm not sure about the drumming..... is it theraputic native healing...
Thanks for sharing here about it since the more we know, the better armed we are to deal with this and to make decisions about our care. It's much appreciated. Best wishes and concern for all, N....
Hugs back Millie! I'm hoping you're doing a bit better - Please, let us know how you're doing. We care, I care....

Big gentle hugs and lots of good vibes for you - Thank you for your courage. Best wishes to you in your recovery....
I sure can empathize with being out in the sticks and far from most everything. I'd be interested to hear what you found out about your condition. I care. Hugs and concern, N....
I keep seeing posts talking about PCE and I'm wondering what that means. Can I buy a clue? Thanks for being here....
I hope it goes well for you Ellen and that they give you something nice and soothing beforehand. I'm also glad to hear that things are good. It's something to smile about today. Cool....
I hate to be negative, but I'm having some very black days here. I just cannot see any light at all. I've got a "friend" who decided that this would be a good time for her to share about her breasts...
Martha, I don't have experience to share with you but I do have care, concern and soft hugs for you. I wish you all the best through this difficult time and I do empathize with you. This seems like a...
Got the PET/CT results and was rather dumbfounded to hear that the invasive lobular carcinoma seems to be "localized" in the breast area from what my PCP's nurse said on the phone. I had been...
Hi Linda, I created an online journel through wordpress, it's free and anyone can create one and I've found it pretty therapeutic to have a place to keep all that stuff and let it out - too, it keeps...
Okay now I'm wondering where Millie is. I sort of looked forward to her posting here too since I feel like the only newcomer here. C'mon Millie, we need you here. I'm hoping you're doing okay....
Cooperstown isn't terribly far and not terribly close either, but Oneonta used to be my very most favorite place in the world to go and I spent much of my teen years driving back and forth between...
Hi. Well, the PET Scan itself wasn't too bad but the not smoking and no caffiene for 24 hours before that was pretty bad. I was going through caffiene withdrawl with a VERY bad headache both before...
I'm 48 and extremely tired at the moment - trying to gear up for the PET scan up in Rochester (45 minutes away) in the snow tomorrow - been a long hard day, but thanks for being here. (We do have a...
I agree with the negativity that can be found on some forums - not this one that I've seen though. Y'all seem so understanding and it's much appreciated. I felt and feel some pretty utter (udder?)...
this whole thing. I've not been "staged" yet, but diagnosed with invasive lobular carcinoma. I have posted this on a couple of sites already and am freaked out about[b] it. If you look at my...
