MJSailors Posted April 27 #120026 Share Posted April 27 When I consulted a neurologist for spinal stenosis, he recommended Tumeric for the inflammation. The only thing is, I need to remember to take it regularly! MJ🙋🏻♀️ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you @Etta1213 Tumeric reacts with high blood pressure medication and also Lanzoprazol which I was prescribed after my heart heart attack because I have to take 75mg aspirin. I think I will ask my local pharmacy about tumeric. Edited April 27 by grapau27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor's are happy to offer replacement operations if I want them but I am reluctant to go down that route. Yes I would hold off as long as you can before getting knee replacement surgery but it may be the best thing to do if you are in constant pain like I was. You might look into stem cell transplants as well as I discussed earlier. 46 minutes ago, George C said: We watch cbs morning show every Saturday, one of the things we like is they show restaurants around the world and lots in New York City, todays show featured Oceana cruises , all the food looked outstanding, lots of caviar , they also said there French restaurants have a French chef , Italian has a Italian chef etc , might need to take a serious look at them. We watch every Saturday too. Love the musical guests. We did watch the piece on Oceana and their chef. Both Linda and I said wow that food looks amazing. We might need to consider them in the future. I’m sure it’s not cheap. 7 minutes ago, MJSailors said: When I consulted a neurologist for spinal stenosis, he recommended Tumeric for the inflammation.

Playing college football and rugby led to this present state. He also cannot take anti inflamatories due to compromised kidneys. He manages as best he can-some days better than others. Glad you got out to the beach. Seeing water is spirit uplifting. Our outing today is taking my car for inspection and oil change. It is a 20 minute drive from home, so we will take in the bright sunshine and flowering trees along the way. Wishing you and all who post here a pleasant day! MJ🙋🏻♀️ Thank you MJ. Arthritis and heart problems runs in my late mam's family. Playing soccer and golf also contributed to my joint issues. Sending you and your husband my best wishes. Graham. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent this morning throwing away papers not sure its smart to throw away. Got a old laptop out of date I dont use but afraid to throw away. 8th grade certificates, so many memories my mom kept. This is me when I lived in hawaii and walked up to a falls daily and was in shape. Photo taken on the road to hana in Maui. Boxes and boxes of stuff she kept. I cant keep them all forever, though she kept them. Her marriage certificate, so many memories. I am not even looking at every paper too sad. I wish so much she was still here to talk to her. She kept everything in files. .. everything. I threw most out. Kept her retirement folder in case there is a problem with the irs. Almost nothing else. Stuff probably should be shredded. Birth certificates and such with ssn on them. Idk but I'm throwing all those papers out. Idk maybe some day I'll wish I'd kept this stuff. Lovely photo! You may want to check with a local Staples store and see if they have shredding service. It is always best to avoid throwing away anything with your SSN on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So off I went there. I was really impressed!! Very nice people…I was seen in about 29 minutes…provider wanted a CT scan done…walked next door to their lab and in ten minutes I was having the scan. The staff were all so very nice!! I grew up with my father being the Director of The Emory Clinic, VP of the Woodruff Health Sciences Center and head of the cardio thoracic department…all surgeons who thought they were gods…. To meet medical professionals who treat you like a friend was so nice especially when you’re scared and in pain. I got the lab results by the time I got home. Of course I had no idea what it meant…🤭 But then a text that an antibiotic had been sent to my pharmacy. So now I’m on the mend and it’s great to know a walk-in no appointment needed option is available! The girls have been taking turns being furry heating pads. Their warmth and purring is very soothing!! Happy to hear you are on the mend. Did you find out the diagnosis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine3601 Posted April 27 #120039 Share Posted April 27 Last night Eric and I watched the movie Arthur the King (he either rented or bought it on Prime). We both really enjoyed the movie and highly recommend. Warning - a bit of a tear jerker. Amazing true story! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching the movie Tootsie my cousin can briefly been seen in it playing stand up bass in I believe the Russian tea room , funny thing is he has a full beard which I never saw him with before or after. Will text another cousin who is a professional drummer to see where he will be playing on our New York City vacation next month, he’s almost always at several places including Swing 46th. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJSailors Posted April 27 #120050 Share Posted April 27 @Luckynana I started a thread with a question about mask mandates. Thread is on page 2. Title is Question for Recent Passengers on a RCL Ship. My DH read something online about mask mandates. We had a discussion that I thought it was no longer the case and the info he read was outdated. To end the discussion, I went in CC for info. A poster was giving me some difficulty about me posting the question and thought I was a troll. That poster’s comments have now been deleted. Several posters from Dani’s thread wrote some good things about me and defended my posting. Just to say-one bad apple doesn’t spoil the whole bunch! Take care MJ🙋🏻♀️ 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
