    DVT - Clotting related to weight? Scared, any advice?

    Thanks again guys. I just re-read my posting from last night. So sorry for all of the typos. I just realized (thanks to someone else listening to me whine) that I should have called him out about the fact that he cancelled my ultrasound. I should have demanded he tell me why he was so...

    DVT - Clotting related to weight? Scared, any advice?

    In car...waiting on meds. Finally broke down and went in... thank you guys. Everyone was so sweet. Had a great young doctor... so kind...immediately wanted to rule out dvt. Ordered ultrasound. They give me a percoset while I wait...and I wait... about 2 hours as their portable machine was...

    DVT - Clotting related to weight? Scared, any advice?

    Thank you for your post. This is where I'm at this morning with it all... I'm more afraid to go the ER because I'm afraid they'll just say I'm fat and I'll get no resolution. Thankfully, the shortness of breath is gone as it healed with the kidney infection. All I have now is this pain...

    you guys might wanna see dr oz to day

    I don't want to participate in the in-fighting here because honestly, even though I was once very active around here many, many moons ago, I haven't been around enough lately to have a dog in this fight. Still, about the Oz show... I never watch but caught this one flipping channels and was...

    DVT - Clotting related to weight? Scared, any advice?

    Hi all. I got a kidney infection before Thanksgiving. It took nearly 2 months to pass with several rounds of antibiotics before we found one that worked. I was couch-bound, asleep most hours of the day, for several weeks. I started to get aches in my right leg. At first, just like a...

    Fat partner -- What breaks? What doesn't?

    Maybe this would help someone else. I toss and turn a LOT... like once an hour, all night, every night. In a mattress with springs or a cushioned memory foam top, this is hard on the bed. I had used beds for my entire life up until 2010. At that time, I did a ton of research on the best...

    Single and/or childless in your 30s

    I will be 33 in a few weeks, have no children, never married. I am technically in a relationship but it's weird. I think the guy just wants me to have his child and isn't concerned about his relationship with me. I don't know, it's very strange... still processing it all. I may write more...

    The Thread for Random Single Confessions Part ... I don't know what Part

    I confess that I keep leaning toward worst Christmas ever feelings. 2300 miles from family/friends -- none of my gifts to them arrived on time despite USPS stating 2 weeks ago, "oh, that's more than enough time" buried 13-yr old puppy yesterday after a very sudden illness only 1 gift to open -...

    Too Fat to Fly

    I've avoiding flying for my entire life. I've checked in a few times, walked to my boarding area, and bailed out. In August, I have no choice but to fly. I'm terrified that my weight is going to become a huge issue. I'm 5'6'' and 285'ish, heavier on top than bottom, but have a fat face...

    unsolicited condescending health advice

    Maybe this is just the super cynic in me, but I think that more times than not, the advice isn't given from the "I care" place but rather a place of assertive arrogance (intermingled with ignorance, on occasion). I love what you said about the teaching moment and I think that's where most...
