Manager fired


About the same regarding sleep. Bone density test showed osteoporosis in right hip... Seeing doctor tomorrow

[invalidusername]

fired up

 

sorry to hear that Liz. Dare we partition the blame to the dreaded C....?

[gail]

Up higher

Liz, which means pain in your hip! Sorry to hear that, I hope that you have the pain covered..

[TryinginFL]

higher mountain

 

 

Sorry we can't blame the hip problem on the C....

I see a pain Dr. who prescribes Hydrocodone but sometimes that doesn't quite do it

Somedays can hardly walk but a lot depends on the weather - Both Sherman (who has Arthritis in his spine) and I really suffer when the barometer falls.

 

(For those who don't know...Sherman is my 10 yr old Lhasa Apso - Pekingese mix)

Aww - you must make a sweet pair between you. I have no idea about advances in osteoporosis, but I sure hope there is something that can be used for you.

[TryinginFL]

stock options

 

 

IUN....you are a hoot!

[invalidusername]

options hot chocolate (do you get that over there or is it a UK thing?)

 

Thanks for easing my embarassment Liz, but it won't stop me feeling like a numbnut

 

That is what you get for years of university education...!

[TryinginFL]

chocolate bonbons

 

 

You are fine, IUN!

 

 

Yes, we have hot chocolate here!

[invalidusername]

bonbons assortment

 

Yes, hot chocolate, but Options hot chocolate??

 

https://www.amazon.c...=gateway&sr=8-4

 

Import it from the UK at stupidly high prices!! But it is lovely...

[TryinginFL]

Good grief!!!

Never heard of it... Sure learned something new 😊

Assortment packaged

[invalidusername]

packaged securely

 

I'm not suggesting you pay for it as I am sure you have the equivalent in Florida, but it is heaven in a mug! I used to mix Ashwagandha with it and it tasted like a nice oat-chocolate thing. Absolute bliss!!

 

Darn it. I want some now - but I'm not going 5 miles to the all-night store at 2am.. I'm not an "Options" junkie

[gail]

Securely wrapped

What fun you have, when we're not there, I'm jealous!

Scrat, the dog, a funny one.

[fishinghat]

wrapped tight

Well, I am the curious type. I looked at the packages of Option's HC on Amazon in the USA. It is sold by a distributor and it seems to be in violation of fda rules as it does NOT list ingredients. It also has a disclaimer...

Tight end


I looked that up too FH...

End of visit

Had a lovely visit from my best friend. Not seen him in 15 months. We went shopping, ordered the suntheanine and bought apples among other things.

Was to tired to go on, so a siesta is waiting for me. I feel so happy! Yeah!

[TryinginFL]

visit ended

 

 

Saw LRNP this afternoon and was prescribed Boniva (sp?) for bone density and recommended Ortho who will give shot for pain and follow up with the osteoporosis...

 

Looks like there might be some relief in sight!

[invalidusername]

Ended well...

 

Just like Gail's day. So so so glad to read of your fine day. You weren't tired and you did your shopping!! Fan-bloody-tastic! Will be interested to hear how the Suntheanine goes.

 

Hat is still on his legal trip I see. I think Vin's talk of FDA goings-on has got him all fired up!!

 

Liz - reading up says the Bonia increases exiting bone mass whilst minimising loss.

 

Have a read - https://www.rxlist.com/boniva-drug.htm

 

The adverse reactions show hardly any difference from placebo, so it looks to be a good choice from that perspective. Watch out for any upper GI abnormality and don't take aspirin!!

[fishinghat]

%$&*#$ Politicians, lawyers, drs and other professional idiots.....

[TryinginFL]

well then...

 

 

Thanks IUN for the info!  Am happy to finally be on the right track    

 

FH, I must agree w/your opinion of those types...hopefully you will fill us in when you are able ...
