I'm always complaining about that. Sometimes a channel sounds like givverish on one show & is find on another program.

Thanks for your replies you've really helped. I'm pretty sure it is a L-8 wisdom tooth. Even after 4-6 weeks of healing from procedure then the crown. I've had crowns before & didn't mind them. They do want to do under sedation dentistry because it is easier on them. I don't wake up easy...

I broke a tooth & the dentist wants to build the tooth up for a crown. That includes a post & core, some shaving of the gum, total about a 1-2 hour procedure. I'm trying to decide if I am strong enough & brave enough to have this done. After I heal from all of that I would still have to get a...

You have my sympathy. Did they diagnose you with Meniere's disease? I hope you're better by now. The only thing that helped me was Ativan at first sign of dizziness/nausea. Take it about 1 hour before a car trip. I have become allergic or sensitive to Ativan & it is now making me feel...

I'm sorry you're having to suffer like this. Back when I started having headaches the doctors didn't really have anything to give us but aspirin which I am allergic to. After years of suffering I found a Neurologist who tried me on Neurontin which was to have been a preventative . It didn't...

Thanks everyone! I just seem to have a problem with trusting a doctor but I know we have to at times.

Did anyone decided to "not" have cataracts removed after finding out you had cataracts? If so, why not? Thanks!

Thanks everyone!

I'm due for surgery & somewhat anxious because of my many allergies. Can anyone tell me what they use for sedation during surgery? I know they don't put us to sleep but they do give something to calm us down. I want to know as much as possible before meeting with my surgeon so I know what...

I have the same problem. I can eat some meat, egg whites, bread, but if it's something I really like I know not to eat it or I will have abdominal pains for hours, sometimes 2 or more days. I've always been told it's IBS. It does take the joy out of life. I have lost about 30 or 40 lbs in the...

I can't take the vaccine because of health reasons so I'm still cautious about people coming into my home. I feel bad for them but it is for my protection as well as theirs. We still know people that have the virus. How do you handle these situations expecially people dropping by without...

Thanks everyone. My naps consist of 15 or 20 minutes in my recliner trying to watch tv. If I tried to sleep I probably couldn't.

I'm curious as to how much sleep/naps seniors in the 78-80- year old range gets daily. As I've gotten older sometimes I feel the need for a nap after meals. I don't want to turn into a lazy person in my senior years. Thanks for your input!

Thanks everyone! He has tried every medication you've mentioned & is now trying another one but is having the same side effect. He's been told about the Urolift which his friend has had but isn't happy with. I'm not having any luck convincing him to try natural products yet. Thanks again for...
