Ovarian cyst removal - has anyone gone through this? - sm
Any of you ever had to have an ovarian cyst removed? I'm told I need to have a left ovary cyst removed, along with the left ovary. If anyone has been through this, I am interested in what to expect recovery wise? It is a simple process where you are up and about within a day or so? I can't afford to be out of work more than a day or so, so I am a little worried. Any advice? Thanks!
We have a cocker spanial who is afraid of storms and afraid of the dark! He is up every night severa
Even with a night light he still gets afraid of the dark and I have to get up and pet him and tell him it is okay, et cetera. He will finally settle and go back to sleep, but will do it again throughout the night. I let him sleep in my room thinking it would help..but it didnt. He is just a big baby, so we love him and try to make him feel as safe as we can. If we have to deal with thunderstorms and the dark we are in for a long night!!
Last week. Recurrence of her ovarian ca. nm

May be a sebaceous cyst...nm
nm
Yes, been through the ovarian cystectomy multiple times. sm
Finally had a hysterectomy last year. If you are having laparoscopy, you will feel good the next day; however, I must tell you, air will get trapped in your diaphragm and you may experience excruciating pain between your shoulder blades for about a day. That has happened to me each time with laparoscopy. The CO2 gets trapped and eventually works its way out. That pain was worse than the surgery itself.

Good luck!
I've got one, but the cyst itself doesn't hurt -
the osteoarthritis underneath it in my wrist is what hurts. In years past, I could simply give it a rest and wrap it with a compressive wrap, like an Ace bandage, for a while, and it would go away. But now I think I'm stuck with it, as I think the arthritis underneath it has caused to reappear. My dad wanted to hit it with a book when I was in my 20's, but I wouldn't let him! Went to a doc, and he said I could:
a) Leave it alone, or
b) Hit it with a book.

I chose 'a' !!!
long shot; osteo meningeal synovial cyst maybe?

Hurting yourself...
Hello, and I'm sorry you had to experience whatever awful trauma you did.

I had a friend who used to do the same thing. Lithium was her saving grace, as well as understanding from her friends and family, and a lot of counseling.

I've posted my email if it helps and you care to use it, but you probably also need medical attention, as well as counseling. If I can help in any way, please write. I don't hurt myself, at least not in that way, but I can relate to abuse and feeling self destructive. I also know that you can move on and create a much better life for yourself!

I'm no counselor, but I can be a friend if you need one.

Please take care and understand that there are some pretty sick puppies out there, and IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT. You CAN experience the feelings without the physical pain you inflict upon yourself. It's actually rather common for us survivors to take our frustrations and pain out on ourselves, but we are NOT the guilty parties here.

Obviously, something triggers this and you need to get to the root of the problem with professional help, as well as help from anyone that will listen at this point. I would be more than happy to listen. Just please think of yourself and the fact that you are a unique creation of the maker, and the fact that you do not deserve the guilt/and/or pain you are feeling when you get the urge to do this. You are placing blame in the wrong place!
But you know, they are only hurting themselves (sm)
and I hope you are able to let it go and not let it hurt you any longer. Count it as a blessing that you are not around that kind of poison anymore; eventually it infects even the best-minded of persons, being around that kind of atmosphere.

I would add also that I personally think sometimes the good girls get the shaft because the supes are afraid of the bad girls litigating in revenge. If you can't dot all your i's and cross all your t's, that kind of person will string you up by your heels.
Hurting the kids...
You say they are not being hurt physically, but they most definitely are emotionally; they are living with an alcoholic and although the bruises and pain are not seen on the outside, they exist on the inside.

I grew up with an alcoholic father who to this day still drinks! I am now a grown woman of 38, but I still live with the repercussions of being a child of an alcoholic. I have had problems with relationships,etc., I know in part to growing up in a home such as this. I am responsible for my own choices now and have gone through counseling, but I wish as a child my family would have followed through and helped me and my brother when we were little. Instead, they stood idly by and watched the chaos unfold.

Please, do what is best for those kids! They did not ask for this and should not have to suffer the consequences. And please ask your BIL to seek help as soon as possible; this will affect his health severely as he ages. The rest is in God's hands.

God bless!


thumbs hurting
Anybody have a problem with just their thumbs hurting after a full day's work?  It is starting to become more chronic with me and just wondering if anyone else has it and what to do about it.  Figure just an anti-inflammatory should help but which one?  
They think they're hurting the ex-wife, so they can't see that
they're actually hurting their kids.
Thanks...I hadn't been hurting for awhile since the
/
Ankles hurting.. any ideas
Having lots of problems with both my ankles, right on the outer ankle bone and across top of foot.. bilat.  Try switching legs when using pedal, propping up leg,  frequent stretching, etc. and of course I live on Ibuprofen..  Just wondering if anyone else has this problem, and if they have modified how they use their footpedal, placing it on an angle, using underdesk foot rest, or if there is any brand of footpedal that might be easier on the feet. Used to have wrist problems and changed to ergonomic keyboard and improved 90%.. any ideas for the feet/ankles? 
If this stops hurting so much with pressure or elevation, you have a bleed, honey.

DANSKOS, but when any part of my legs starts hurting, I immediately do several leg stretches
fixes them right away. One thing though, you have to get a pair of really good shoes now - my daughter-in-law got me a pair of Danskos because she wears them (on her feet all day as an ICU nurse) - that was five years ago - they made a tremendous difference and now I wouldn't wear any others. There are other good shoes out there and you DO have to pay for them, but it's worth it.

My problem now is my back up between the shoulder blades - the only thing that helps there is to stop typing and apply heat. Right elbow is usually achy too, but that goes away when I rest it.

Wish I had a hot tub.

Good luck to you.
Ouch!!!
How long before you were back xcribing? I fractured mine last Friday and cannot reach the mouse without it being painful or feeling like the break is popping in and out. I am in a figure 8 harness. Not very comfortable to say the least.
Wow!!!!??????? What is ouch about it???
Why would that hurt? It is soap. You use it on your hands and it doesn't hurt. Geez!!!!!!!!!
ouch
I cannot get past her look - can you say Elf???
Ouch!
I am sorry your postings included corrections on your spelling, etc. We all make mistakes. I would never point out mistakes from an email to a coworker of mine and we are all transcriptionists and friends also. I like to think we are all on the same team! Anywho, I have never been stalked in that way, but I would block e-mail also and use the same ideas the other ladies had about this. I'm sure they will get the hint! Hopefully "they" will get the hint and leave you alone soon. I wouldn't advise going any further really. I think it would be a waste of your time and energy which could be better used finding the perfect job for you! I would just chalk it up to the fact that I am so wonderful that companies are actually stalking me for my expertise! Good luck in your search for a new job, friend.
Ouch!

Can't really say it's the thought that counts with something like that, huh?  What  a kick in the nuts. 


The sad part is, I felt guilty asking but I feel cornered.  I'm the sole support of my busted-a$$ 2-member household and the oil tank is empty, has been since last winter, and the cost of firewood went up, food went up, electricity, etc.  I'm watching my little American Dream go right down the crapper and frankly it's scaring the heck out of me.  Someone was mentioning abdominal pains the other day on here...I haven't poo'd in about a week--I kid you not.  I get so jealous when I hear others say they only have to work part-time or not work at all because hubby brings in the cash and bennies, but I'm really just wishing I could be them! 


Oh well.  At least we got dental benefits so now I can almost afford to get my teeth looked at for the first time in 20 years!  Only lost one in the interim! 



  


Ouch---Just trying to help her out
She's a widow (husband did not have life insurance), lost her job about a month ago, and is seeking anything to pay the bills.  She is not a Transcriptionist and transcription is only a VERY SMALL part of the job she's applying for.  However, as we all know, most of us use our spellcheck on a regular basis, or at least our lovely specialty dictionary, and she thought the job would work out okay when being able to utilize the spellchecker.  I have to agree with her on that point.  The spelling test she has to take is a written test before ever even being allowed to take the transcription part of the test and is not over basic terms, grammar, and such but over police type terms, which commoners would not use on a daily basis.
ouch...
I am hoping it is something simple like the video card but if it is the motherboard I need to weigh my options...I have a laptop that I got brand new at Christmas time so I really could wait for another desktop for a while...but then if I wait something might happen to the laptop...in my mind anyway---lol...
Appendicitis...ouch!.........sm
Right lower quadrant... and "VERY" tender on palpation.
Ouch, that's the pits

I worked for hospitals on Long Island in the early 1980s, and I was getting $8.00 per hour with benefits. And in those days, you didn't have to pay for medical insurance.


Ouch....worse than me...sm
It's been 10 years for me too, but I do occasionally manage a weekend if I work 14 hour week days.  Usually work 11-12 hour days.  I'm having a light day today which is extremely unusual.  I have 4 years to go and sometimes not sure I'll make it!
Wow. Popup ad. Ouch!
Am I the only one that got nailed with a mosquito-buzzing popup ad when clicking a link to read a message today? As a transcriptionist, my headset is almost always on and normally at full-blast as well. I understand MTStars need for advertising support, but is there a way to limit it to silent adverts only? That nearly blew my eardrums!
Ouch! HAHA :)
x
OUCH! Bet that hurt!!

Well I'm doing this full time and ouch !!!

How do you make any money???? Typing and shortcuts is not the problem but trying to figure out some of what the dictators are saying is time consuming... How do you make money????????????


Though I love the research and find this interesting 40.00 a day is not going to cut it... Does it get better?????  I feel stupid !!!!!!!!!!!!!


pt does get her mammagram daily. LOL ouch sm

GYN HISTORY


G2, P2.  Her pregnancies were uncomplicated.  She has not seen a gynecologist in over two years, but she does get her mammogram daily.    Uhhh.... I don't think so Mr. MD!!!   You couldn't get me to do that daily if ya paid me!


Ouch! How'd you do that? You'll get used to using the other foot.
I had to use my other foot for a while because my sciatica was acting up. Hope you feel better soon!
OUCH!!!! think I'll pass on the....nm

OUCH! I had a private policy with BC/BS for $180/month sm

and it was a pretty good plan -- Affordablue -- had a $25 copay for office visits or something like that.  That was just a single plan, though.  It included dental coverage too, bot other than covering for routine cleaning and such, it was kind of useless when paying for crowns and other "big" items.


Sounds like you have a good deal.  Fortunately, I am working for Transtech now and have affordable insurance .. whew! 



 


Oh, ouch! I hope things improve soon!
That's the very reason I've never took that plunge into independent...it's just so HARD for you guys. Hats off to you for all your hard work. Good luck.
Ouch. I happen to agree with her. 15 years sm
here - and I would not recommend this field to anyone. She asked for opinions and we gave ours - we did not "make" our problems anybody else's.
P.S. The temperamental Sony unit was a bargain at $100! Ouch!
Anybody want to sell me a bridge?
I know a group of Docs (GPs) that type their own notes!!! OUCH! nm

oh my gosh, would you, yourself, bathe in DAWN dish soap - ouch!
no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
That's what I was afraid you were going to say.
xx
Why are you afraid?
Why are you afraid to state your business name?  You have said yourself that you rather like Indian MTs when compared to US MTs, so why not come forth?  Could it be because you really do need the US MTs to run your company and make your bucks? 
I'm afraid...
I've been sworn to secrecy. I simply cannot divulge!
I'm afraid...
Janelle lost the final HOH competition and Yvette won, who immediately evicted Janelle, so now its just Yvette and Nurse Maggie. Yvette basically gave the game to Maggie now since most of the evicted guests do not like Yvette and won't vote for her. How dumb!
I'm just afraid
she'll do it and LOOK OUT when it comes time for her to flash her
@@
if ya know what I mean. LOL
Her and her boyfriend might be approximately Demi and Ashton's ages, but that is the only similarity. LOL


Yes, I'm afraid so...
Tonight at midnight, according to PC World. They said it probably won't do much damage, and is a single person doing it. Weird. U might want to go to Microsoft's web page and get their just released security update for this - I did and I feel all safe and cozy!
That's what I'm afraid of!! nm

Afraid so, saw one ad for 6 cpl...
I've been trying to get extra work for a while now but I will not work extra hours for what they are offering, especially when it is left over stuff and late hours.
I'm not afraid

I am just a very private person and I do not want other people knowing my business unless they have a NEED to know it.


If you want to shout from a soapbox, find something worth shouting about. This is getting boring.


That's what I was afraid of. Thanks...NM

That's what I was afraid of...
I saw a demo of Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9 Medical Edition on the Nuance website. The doctor in the demo dictates a section of a report and the software makes no mistakes whatsoever. While this part is hard to believe, he then says "select congestive heart failure", which the software does and highlights. He then says "ICD-9 that", and the software inserts the correct ICD-9 code in parentheses behind the selected text. The ICD-9 codes are pre-programmed and inserted based on recognized *text*, so as long as the right text is highlighted, the only way an error could occur is if the programmers had entered a wrong ICD-9 code, which is unlikely and would be quickly fixed with a version update. I don't know if this will eventually eliminate coding or if it will just make coders more productive, but that coding course at AHIMA is looking more and more like a waste of money. An online Bachelor degree is beginning to look like the only way out of this conundrum.
P.S. Don't be afraid to go over the head of
your local boss, they are likely to stonewall you. You should follow protocol and START there, but do not hesitate to carry it further if not satisfied.......... the protocol for this is actually outlined on QNET.
