RE: need advice.medical ? here :)

Well thank you QC..

I can't speak for Kitty.. but i'll check into it. And since i'll probably get my medical insurance back sooner than she will be able to get enough money to go to a doctor i'll have my doctor check out what you said to do and then i'll tell her if she's still looking for answers.

I can't say that we're both gonna have the same thing.. but at least all the symptoms are the same.

RE: need advice.medical ? here :)

Kittykat..

I can sympathasize with you. I have the exact same symptoms. I've however spent thousands of dollars on co-pays to do testing to find out what is wrong with me. And i too no longer have any insurance. Mine was just cancelled. I haven't gotten any answers yet as to what is causing my problems. So, i hope for both your sake and mine that someone here can give some answers. And unlike another poster.. i do believe you can get real advice from people on here. So, hopefully we'll both get some.

Only one test that i can advise right now.. one that i've yet to get. And that is a colonostomy. That's what my doctor is recomending i get next. Supposedly that will find any problems with the stomach pains and what may be causing them. And i'd do it.. but, like i said.. i no longer have any insurance either. And i've got a mountain of bills from all the other tests i've already had done. A whole lot of bills, a whole lot of tests.. and not one answer as of yet. Almost seems a waste of time and money to me.

Now my pain has been going on for over 9 years now. So, hopefully that can give you some reassurance that it won't kill you immediately. But, you do need to find out what it is. It only gets worse as the years go by.

One thing i can say though.. the ibuprophen isn't good. You may already have migraines. And that, from what my doctor says is caused by the withdrawal from ibuprophen. You build up a dependence to it. And then when you don't take those massive amounts you will start getting migraines. So, just try to wean off of those if you can. And by all means.. go get checked out.

I know how you feel about getting buried under the bills too. And i know they have to treat ya if you go to an emergency room and all that. But, what most people here fail to mention is that even though they can't force you to pay those bills.. they can ruin your credit. So, you are stuck between a rock and a hard place no matter what someone else tells ya. Having poor credit can ruin your life just as badly as not having any money can.

Other than that.. i don't know what to tell ya. If you are still smoking.. you know that it would help to quit. I know it's hard.. but it will help with some of the symptoms... especially for the chest pains. I have COPD and i smoked for years.. and that's probably why i get all the chest pains. I know the pains are in my lungs no matter whether the x-rays show any tumors or blood clots or not. That's definately where the pain is.

Anyways.. i know i'm of no help here.. but i do sympathasize with ya. And i wish you the best of luck with finding answers.

RE: our furry buddies/mates

I got a million stories and anecdotes i can tell ya later. I've had hundreds of dogs as pets throuout my life and i know alot of other people who have dogs. how much time do you have to listen?

RE: Do guys like this

wave My last serious relationship she was that exact same size. So yeah i'll have to say i like that. Can't speak for all men. Some men like 7 ft tall 300 lb women with big bazzokas...to each their own i guess. Me i have always been attracted to the more petite women. And thankfully.. there are a lot of em. Most women in my observations are say under 5'5", not so many that are amazonians. wow

RE: <<<<<HOPING AND ASKING>>>>>

Wow.. you and i must of had completely different childhoods. You mean they actually fed you. My parents would go out of their way to make me cry, just so they could say "if you want to cry, i'll give you something to cry about" And then i got beat. Wanna trade childhoods? You can have mine if you want it whether i get yours or not.

Unfortunately i can't give you the answers why god created you. I know that i've lived my life doing good for everyone i can.. so i don't question my purpose in life either. Yet there is so much more misery in this world i haven't even started to fix yet, so much poverty and hunger and hopelessness that i know i can fix.. just it takes me longer than just one lifetime to address it all. I hope to be around for a long, long time just so i can fullfill my mission in life.

It does sound to me as if you're just feeling a little blue there though leelhet. I'm sure if you think real hard you can find your reason for being. And if you just need someone to talk to when you get in your blue moods.. i'm still here.

RE: life

Don't get so down in the dumps DJ. Happiness isn't solely based on being with someone else. Find other things that make you happy. Get a hobby, take some classes, go fishing or jogging or whatever else you might like to do to keep yourself occupied. Do anything and everything you enjoy. Love will come along. And when you are happy being who you are it will show. Thus making you more attractive to a potential mate. Cheer up.. there's a great big beautifull world out there... take the time to enjoy it. Always be true to yourself and do whatever makes you happy without a man.. one will find you easier if you are out and about and enjoying life than they will by reading a sad story in some profile. Course you know us men.. some of us do fall for the victims too. Don't know why that is.. but either way, all i can say is to not depend so much on what a man can do for you. Depend on what you can do to find your own happiness.. with or without a man. And there are billions of men out there too.. not just one. You'll find someone.

RE: Another long day

Would love to.. but you're just a tad too far away for me to make it there today. Hope you find someone to go scuba diving with though.. It's great to do both for recreation and for some really fun jobs.

Good luck on finding your recreation partner..

RE: Still waiting...

LOL.. look at how different the mens answers are compared with the womens. I'm a man.. so of course i'm gonna say that you should never give up trying too. Let me ask you this.. how are you going to find Mr. Right if you don't actively seek him out? And if putting up with a bunch of Mr wrongs in order to find your one Mr Right is too much of a stain on you then sure.. go ahead and delude yourself into thinking he will find you at the supermarket or while pumping gas or whereever. Being a man i can tell you that no Mrs Right has ever found me that way. If you think it's hard finding a man when you let it be known that you're looking.. just imagine how we men feel when we see a pretty woman at the store or library or park or whereever and we don't know one way or the other if that woman is involved already. Just saying.. i think it's being a little overly optimistic to think a man will find you when you're not willing to meet them half way at least. If you don't look for us.. well, sometimes we don't look for you either. And other than that.. maybe rethink some of the qualities you're looking for in your MR Right. Is the age difference more important than who the person is? Is a person's height and weight critical to your happiness? Maybe Mr. Right isn't a male model after all. Just maybe you could expand your horizons a little bit there. But, who am i to give advice..i haven't found Mrs Right myself in over 20 years of not dating.
