Elise,
I have the neuropathy in my feet from type 2 diabetes. I have had it worsen with different chemos. It has pretty much goes back to pre-chemo neuropathy. I am on Alimta right now and I get an increase with each treatment, but it goes back each time. My onc recommended Glutamine power 5 g twice a day. It is an over the counter supplement that has helped a lot of people. I have not been good about the number of times each day. I seem to forget the second 5g. I do believe it is helping. He said try it for 3 weeks and see what happens. He said if it did not work I could get a Lyrica prescription.

As all of you can see, Rochelle always has the last word around here.
Her wonderful character traits were noted by me years ago. It is people like Rochelle that make battling this disease very much easier. I am glad she is in my corner and that she can still do so much for all of you.
My hat is off to you Rochelle, congratulations on 5000 posts.

Frank,
I wanted to post on this earlier, but I have been dragging my anchor. I just about have it back in the boat now.
There not much I can say about your boob. If Connie says it looks like one, then it is. I am sure she is an expert on boobs. I have been looking at them for years and still not an expert.
I glad you are doing well and the boob is not causing you much discomfort.
Well if it gets bigger you can get a "manbra" and put a falsie in the opposite side.
Take care my friend and I hope this doesn't cause you any problems.

THE TICKET AGENT ASKED, "SIR, WHAT'S THAT ON YOUR SHOULDER?"
THE OLD FARMER SAID, "Oh, THAT'S MY PET ROOSTER, CHUCKY.
WHEREVER I GO, CHUCKY GOES."
"I AM SORRY SIR," SAID THE TICKET AGENT. "WE CAN'T ALLOW ANIMALS IN THE THEATER."
THE OLD FARMER WENT AROUND THE CORNER AND STUFFED THE
BIRD DOWN HIS OVERALLS. HE RETURNED TO THE BOOTH, BOUGHT A TICKET AND ENTERED THE THEATER. HE SAT DOWN NEXT TO TWO OLD WIDOWS NAMED MILDRED AND MARGE.
THE MOVIE STARTED AND THE ROOSTER BEGAN TO SQUIRM.
THE OLD FARMER UNBUTTONED HIS FLY SO CHUCKY COULD STICK HIS HEAD OUT AND WATCH THE MOVIE.
"MARGE," WHISPERED MILDRED.
"WHAT?" SAID MARGE.
"I THINK THE GUY NEXT TO ME IS A PERVERT."
"WHAT MAKES YOU THINK SO?" ASKED MARGE.
"HE UNDID HIS PANTS AND HE HAS HIS THING OUT," WHISPERED MILDRED.
"WELL, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT," SAID MARGE. "HELL, AT OUR AGE WE'VE SEEN 'EM ALL"
"I THOUGHT SO TOO," SAID MILDRED, "BUT THIS ONE'S EATIN' MY POPCORN!"

1) I was a smoker. I started experimenting at 5 I had a habit at 15, which would have been 1966. They talked about LC but stunting your growth was the biggest fear.
2) I really do not think it was advertising as much as it was peer pressure. Everyone of my friends smoked and both my parents did.
3) Some but, mostly family and friends were the biggest influence.
4) I used zyban.

Michael,
I am sending you my best to get through this trying time. I am sure your mother has left a large void in you and your family, because there is one here. She was loved by most and well thought of by everyone else here. She was a true inspiration in many ways. One of her inspirations to me was to design of the BBCR (Beer Butt Chicken Roaster).
As your mother would say,
"Much Affection"

Fay,
You have placed yourself well in a lot of peoples hearts. Please make sure you are as comfortable as you can be. You have been so unselfish to so many of us, do not hesitate to think of nothing but yourself. You have earned it many times over.

1st woman: Hi! My name is June, 2nd woman: Hi! I'm Sylvia. How'd you die?
1st woman: I froze to death.
2nd woman: How horrible!
1st woman: It wasn't so bad. After I quit shaking from the cold, I began to get warm & sleepy, and finally died a peaceful death. What about you?
2nd woman: I died of a massive heart attack. I suspected that my husband was cheating, so I came home early to catch him in the act. But instead, I found him all by himself in the den watching TV.
1st woman: So, what happened?
2nd woman: I was so sure there was another woman there somewhere that I started running all over the house looking. I ran up into the attic and searched, and down into the basement. Then I went through every closet and checked under all the beds. I kept this up until I had looked everywhere, and finally I became so exhausted that I just keeled over with a heart attack and died.
1st woman: Too bad you didn't look in the freezer---we'd both still be alive.

Oh, the lessons we learn.

Surviving in Michigan, thanks to my beautiful and caring wife.
I felt I had to check in on this one. I have been dragging my boat anchor and the lake is still frozen.
Better days are ahead.

Fay,
I am so glad you are home and comfortable. You are right up there near the top of the most courageous women I have had the pleasure to know. We all love you especially when you get "mushy".
Stay comfortable.
John

I agree with Kasey. If you open up, maybe they will open up and get the ball rolling. This disease is hard enough. Do not try go it alone.

The frist two I can not count. They were adopted and that is an experience that is entirely different.
1) Doing my best to get Rochelle through all the pain. I tried to remember the breathing rhythm, but I have no rhythm.
2) Seeing our baby and both Rochelle & Jillian where fine after that entire experience.

The wife comes home early & finds her husband in their master bedroom
making love to a beautiful, sexy young lady!
"You unfaithful, disrespectful pig! What are you doing? How dare
you
do this to me the faithful wife, the mother of your children! I'm
leaving
this house, I want a divorce!"
The husband, replies "Wait, Wait a minute! Before you leave, at
least
listen to what happened"
"Hmm, I don't know, well, it'll be the last thing I will hear from
you. But make it fast, you unfaithful pig, you!"
The husband begins to tell his story . . . "While driving home
this
young lady asked for a ride. I saw her so defenseless that I went
ahead
and allowed her in my car. I noticed that she was very thin, not well
dressed and very dirty. She mentioned that she had not eaten for 3
days.
With great compassion I brought her home and warmed up the enchiladas
that I made for you last night that you wouldn't eat because you're
afraid you'll gain weight; the poor thing practically devoured them."
"Since she was very dirty I asked if she wanted to take a shower.
While she was showering, I noticed her clothes were dirty and full of
holes so I threw her clothes away. Since she needed clothes, I gave
her
the pair of jeans that you have had for a few years, that you can no
longer wear because they are too tight on you, I also gave her the
blouse
that I gave you on our anniversary and you don't wear because I don't
have good taste."
"I gave her the pullover that my sister gave you for Christmas
that
you will not wear just to bother my sister and I also gave her the
boots
that you bought at the expensive boutique that you never wore again
after
you saw your co-worker wearing the same pair."
The husband continues his story . . . . .
"The young woman was very grateful to me and I walked her to the
door.When we got to the door she turned around and with tears coming
out
of her eyes, she asks me:
"Sir, do you have anything else that your wife does not use?"

Well I have made it of the couch. Hold the light beer, I drank the stuff when I was overweight. It did not work I just drank more. Coors Light ~ talk about a double negative.
I'll sit near Geri, I do not remember drinking scotch, but I'll give it a try. A whole beer and shot of Jack Daniels for me to start and I'll see how it goes from there.

It is just a thought. Has he tried the sensitive touthpaste? It probably is not strong enough, but may help.
Good luck with the Switzerland trial. I am hoping too that is the magic bullet.

Well, one way or another the men brought us world peace. Of course not without the help of a woman.

THIS ONE MAKES MY EYES TEAR-UP, SUCH A HAPPY ENDING
A couple had only been married for two weeks. However, the husband,
although very much in love, couldn't wait to go out on the town and party
with his old buddies.
So, he said to his new wife, "Honey, I'll be right back."
"Where are you going, Coochy Coo?" asked the wife.
"I'm going to the bar, Pretty Face. I'm going to have a beer," he said.
The wife said, "You want a beer, my love?" She opened the door to the
Refrigerator and showed him 25 different kinds of beer, brands from 12
Different countries: Germany, Holland, Japan, India, etc.
The husband didn't know what to do, and the only thing that he could
think of saying was, "Yes, Lollipop... but at the bar... you know...
they have frozen glasses... "
He didn't get to finish the sentence, because the wife interrupted him
by saying, "You want a frozen glass, Puppy Face?" She took a huge
beer mug out of the freezer, so frozen that she was getting chills just
holding it.
The husband, looking a bit pale, said, "Yes, Tootsie Roll, but at the
bar they have those hors d'oeuvres that are really delicious... I won't
be long. I'll be right back. I promise. OK?"
"You want hors d'oeuvres, Poochie Pooh?" She opened the oven and
took out 5 dishes of different hors d'oeuvres: chicken wings, pigs in
blankets, mushroom caps, poppers and pork strips.
"But my sweet honey... at the bar.... you know there's swearing, dirty
words and all that..."
"You want dirty words, Cutie Pie? LISTEN UP ! CHICKEN shi_!
SIT YOUR *ss DOWN, SHUT THE HELL UP, DRINK YOUR BEER IN
YOUR FROZEN MUG AND EAT YOUR HORS D'OEUVRES BECAUSE
YOUR MARRIED *ss AIN'T GOING TO A DAMNED BAR!
THAT shi_ IS OVER, GOT IT, JACKASS?"
And, they lived happily ever after. Isn't that a sweet story?
