Welcome home!!! Back to the real world! :thumbup: I feel so bad for your mom :Banane20:

Good morning everyone~ Not really much to say this morning. Hip is hurting already...started before I got out of bed. DD is going to see Toy Story 3 this morning with a group of her friends and a couple of moms...I decided to stay home due to some irregularity med I took last night that should be kicking in shortly. TMI, sorry. I had strange dreams all night long. OK, I can tell I am rambling... I will post again later. Glad to see everyone is back and doing good :thumbup: Jenn-sorry I did not call you. I will make it up. :Banane20:

Suzanne-glad to hear you are doing better Kat-so glad to see you back here. We missed you! Have a great night everyone :smile2:

:smilielol5: Good morning everyone~ Me & Michelle are tied...I have lost 5.5 too Michelle-so glad to hear that you are doing better with your eating. Think POSITIVE...the weight will stay off! :thumbup: I am so glad you found a place for dd to take swimming lessons. My dd was a mermaid in her former life. Suzanne-hope you are doing well this morning! How was your night? Have a fantastic day everyone.

OK, one more homie to get back in here....Come on Kat....

Suzanne??? I SEE YOU!!!!

Angela-so what are you doing this weekend? How you your son and how are you? I hope Kat is having a blast. I miss her. I hope suzanne feels good this morning. Terri-how are you? So, does anobody have exciting plans for the weekend? I really want to go see Karate Kid at the movies. :scared2: Maybe we will. Have a great day friends :thumbup:

OK, she just answered me and said that the dr said he was positive that he got all of it and it may take take a few days for the results. I told her that we are thinking of her and praying for her and she said "its all those prayers that have gotten me this far".

Update #2 for Suzanne (quote) "Just got back from my 2nd little walk to the nurses station. Turns out not to be a cyst but a tumor. They are sending it for a biopsy." I text her back asking if they said when she hould have the biopsy report but i have not gotten a text back yet. I will keep you all updated and lets ALL say BIG prayers for Suzanne!!

Just got a text from Suzannes sister. This is what it says "She is out of surgery and doing good. Will be in the hospital overnight. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers."

Still no news from Suzannes sister about the surgery....

Everyone-know what I am worried about? I am worried that I am not going to get hired anywhere taking the meds I am taking. That is not cool. I guess we'll see but that kinda bothers me. I know one thing...if I try and try and to no avail, I will see about SS benefits. Surely there are some places that hire depressed people? Maybe I can get a government job. :lol2: :devil_smile: Oh well, dh is off for 4 days starting today but the GREAT news is that he is getting diet pills from the dr today and he will be on a diet. Sure makes it easy on me because when we are dieting together he doesnt try to tempt me. Have a super duper day friends! (((hugs)))

RIGHT??!! I still get hungry and my tummy growls but nothing at all sounds good....and I mean nuttin! :devil_smile: When is your last day of summer school? Suzanne....how are you doing? I will say big big prayers for you sista!

Angela-so sorry your ds is sick! I would just talk to your new family on FB for a while too. And even maybe by phone? Your dh gives good advice! Suzanne-let me know (get someone totext me) how the surgery goes tomorrow. Big prayers for you! Everyone-the new meds are GREAT. Wanna know why? I don't have an appetite :devil_smile: Absolutely nothing sounds good! Ice cream is my weakness and if i had a bowl in fron of me right now i would not eat it. That is HUGE! I slept great last night and i woke up well rested an feeling great this morning. So far so good! I made my cardiologist appt for June 29th. DH is off and will be able to go with me. I am still scared but i cant dwell on it or my heart starts racing. I miss Kat! Have a great day ladies....

Great news Suzanne. Did you have a margarita for moi? Great news to hear from you too Michelle! :sigh: My regular dr today told me he wanted me to go to a cardiologist for testing. He said just because I did not have a heart attack does not mean I don't have anything wrong with my heart and it needs to be checked out before something could happen. I agree, so i will make my appt in the morning. I am terrfied. He also changed my antidepressant so i hope they work good. He changed it to one that is for anxiety AND depression. I will keep my fingers crossed. Love you ladies

Thanks Angela! Tried to PM you back but my PM'er must be PMS'ing, . I am gonna go look right now at that website. I will post later everyone....

Angela-how was your quiet day? Good morning everyone~ Another night of solid sleep. I love it! I sure hope that I hear something from the school district. I really need to get my butt back into the workforce pronto for more reasons than just one! The pressure is not helping me one bit. Have a great day friends!

I am trying to. It will be interesting to see what my dr says Tuesday. You know what...we will probably be passing through your area sometime this summer and If we do, would love to meet up with you for lunch or something! My goodness ladies...I have only went down -2 this past week. I was hoping for more but...i can tell I am retaining fluid. I did not listen to my mind when I told myself not to weigh unless I *felt* lighter. Oh well, onward & upwards! Have a fantastic Saturday night everyone! :wub:

OK, so the wording was a little different, but that was my interpretation for what THIS said :frown: I knew it was you Cindy, so I am not completely off my rocker!

(I guess I will go back and read through the pages and see who said we control what we eat...Michelle, was it you?)

YAY, I am so glad dd doesn't have whooping cough! By the way, YOU are the multipost queen...you do it alot better than me :wink5: You know, I still have not gotten my dry erase board for the refridgerator. I really need it. I can even write down if I have taken my meds and what time. I am getting forgetful. :sad: We were just talking about stress tests too....strange huh?! I heard about the injection they have that puts you inot a stress mode and they tell that way. That is kinda scary...dont know if i would want the shot or the treadmill! I can't even begin to imagine how frustrated you must be. One day at a time, right?! Hi everyone! I slept like a rock last night and woke up at 9. That is LATE for me! I am still eating properly, even though I have been tempted, i have held my ground. Cindy said it best when she said that we may not be able to control alot but we can control what we put into our mouths. (or at least i think Cindy said that...like i said, my mind isn't up to par these days :huh2: ) So, that is what I have been doing...focusing on my first step of regaining my life back. I am SO scared to get on the scales because I really REALLY want to be 24something again so I am gonna wait until i wake up one morning and FEEL lighter. I can not believe i am at square one again. But you know what is strange? I do not feel in my heart like i am at square one because I know what to do and I have the band. Sounds strange, huh? I made an appt with my regular family physician to talk to him about the hospital ordeal. I read the actual definitions of anxiety and panic attacks....fit me to a T. Looks like a change in meds in on the horizon. Cindy-how is summer school going? Thanks for the well wishes! Angela-how is ds doing? I will call PM you about a coffee date. Do you work in LaPorte? If you work close I could even maybe meet you for lunch?:frown: Terri-i was self pay too. I wish insurance would have paid but...no way! So, we paid it, and I have zero regrets. Bethany-where are you? Jenn-i will try to call you this weekend girlie! We miss you here though. Don't make me send out the flying monkies to get you! :tt2: JOLLY, SHAYLEE yooooohhooooooo. I called Kat and left her a message telling her I am alive I knew she would wanna know. Have a great night everyone :Yawn: By the way, if I missed someone, blame the drugs. :tongue:

Big prayers for you Suzanne! Thanks Michelle-I plan on resting as much as i can. DH is off the next couple of days so he will be able to help.

:seeya: Here I am! So sorry about just now checking in. I have been so tired. Just *visiting* a hospital tires me out but this was a whole new level. Here is the whole story~ Tuesday about 4 o'clock, macy and i were grocery shopping and when i loaded the groceries into the van i closed the door and thought 'wow, my chest hurts', and i was out of breath. So i sat there with the ac on full blast and caught my breath and was driving home and the pains in my chest never went away. I call dh at work and tell him, he said he would TRY to call me later and i told him to forget about it, i would just make sure macy knows how to dial 911. SO...i put up the groceries, the pains got worse, i felt like i had just ran a marathon, i get the phone and sit down, call macy in the room and gave her a crash course on how to dial 911 and made sure she knew our address. LONG story short, i polled the audience and was brought to the urgent care facility where (it just so happens) my best friend is there also! Coincidence....anyway.....they do blood work, x-rays, urinalysis, ekg and the dr comes in to inform me that they do not find anything wrong BUT, if I wanted to rule out a heart attack, then i should be transferred to the hospital and have blood drawn every so many hours to make sure. SO, i decided i did not want to be the person you hear about that *could have* done something but just blew it off. Considering it is my heart we are dealing with, i decided to take the safest route. The hospital dr did not come in to see me until 5 or so yesterday evening...can u believe? :crying: Anyway, he was in the room a total of about 3 minutes and he tells me he sees nothing wrong (thank God) and that i should see my family doc because he thinks it is an anxiety problem. (ya think? ) So here i am at home, my mom took macy home with her, dh is at work and i am about to catch up on some MUCH needed sleep. Good news, I have been really focucsing on what i have been eating so I will prob weigh this weekend and see some good results. Thank you all SO much for the prayers. I may not tell you all enough but you all inspire me. Thank you. :frown: :wub: Pill:30 :Yawn: Terri...I have met Kat. I can not wait to see her again! And I get to meet Angela soon :eek:

GEEEZ that post was enormous! My fingers are crossed Suzanne!!

Ok girls, lots of running around and numerous phone calls and this is where we stand right now. The Doc that ordered the test has read the report and is not concerned and has signed off, she however is sending the report to my GP for him to decide if I need to go see a Cardiologist. She said that my valves and arteries looked good. There is a slight diminish in the heart beat but nothing that should be of any concern. She would just like for me to do a quick follow up with a Cardio Doc. In a little bit I will call my GP and talk to the nurse. She has already been informed about what is going on. But I will check with her and see if she can get me in as soon as she can. Not sure I will get all of this done in time for surgery this thursday, looks like it will probably be next week. I'm feeling better already. I am so glad. I can tell that you are not as nervous as you were and if you ARE, you sure are hiding it well!! Love multiquotes....it keeps me from forgetting what I was gonna say to who. It looks so rainy around here, again. DH is about to get up and go to work. Macy is becoming more of a mamas girl. She doesn't want to leave my side. I think she is sensing my turmoil and she has been loving on me and kissing on me. What a sweet babygirl. Thank you God for my sweet girl. :smile2: Hope you all have a great evening!!
