    Ovulation causing breathing probelms that time of month?

    I have noticed this for many years. It took me realizing that I was just starting, just finishing or on my period when I was in the hospital very often. I thought it was weird and it sucked because ya know laying in a bed while on your period and not feeling good on top of it is no fun. So to...

    anyone had chloramphenicol, or Tigecycline(Tygacil)

    I was on Tygacil for about 6 weeks at one time and other times for 3 weeks (my usual length of IV treatment). It was a tough one on my tummy. I had nausea and all over "blah" feeling from it. It was not my favorite by any means. I believe I was taking it for mycobacterium (MAC) which took...

    questions on insurance

    You mention Tricare so I'm assuming you are in the military of some sort. My husband is in the Air Force. I have Medicare and Tricare. I have Medicare because I am on disability (SSDI) and have been deemed "disabled" since 2005. I did work for about 5 years where I had insurance through my...

    Discussing life expectancy with your spouse

    This is the "can't get away from it" conversation. You can avoid it but sooner or later it WILL be at your front door knocking. I was married for 7 years and with him for 5 years prior, a total of 13 years. He DID NOT want to talk about the inevitable, ever. His father commited suicide when...

    drinking alcohol

    Drinking alcohol dehyrates me. If I have a lot to drink I will wake up the next day feeling like I have cement in my lungs. It sucks out the moisture from the mucus in the lungs and throughout, hence dry mouth. I rarely drink. My doctor told me that one fun night out drinking (obviously in...
