Elaine Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Just wondering after reading this if the nonsmoking women on this board who have lc are also tall, as the article says that tall women are more at risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowflake Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I'm not tall - 5'5". ...and I'm not overweight, I'm undertall. I'd be perfect if I were, say 8'4"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hebbie Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I guess I am what you would consider tall -- 5'7. How interesting! That article made me really want to get out there and spread the word about it not just being a smoker's disease. I am going to contact some local papers/publications and see if they are interested in my story. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyCW Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Great article - thanks. How strange is that, about the "tall" part?! BeckyCW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay A. Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I'm not really fat, just short for my height. I have lost some height due to degenerative disc disease of the spine, but up until I gained all this weight I was considered a tall, thin, caucasian female.... Good Grief, sounds like the description of someone you're putting out an APB on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaine Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Sheesh, Fay, your medical file must be as tall as you once were. So sorry you have had to deal with so many different medical conditions. I can't even imagine.... It shines a light on what I know of you, and I surely hope that many days lie ahead where you have nothing but good health. Shining a light--hey that just reminded me of you and the beginning of radiation. Did you start today? Are you now a nightlight? Ok, I assume you are, so I am now singing "You Light Up My Life"-- can you hear it? I hope not, it sounds horrible, quite frankly.... elaine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
