For life...take three...... NEW THREAD ALERT. PG 243

[Trentmom]

cranberry juice and lots of tylenol. And Azo actually makes a special pill for the urinary pain, so I might pick that up tonight. (I got a sample in the mail that I had been holding for just such an occasion but I hadn't tried it yet to see how it works....forgot about it til late last night after I had already taken tylenol)

ah okay

Oh that is good. Hope that works for you.

You can not go a week feeling like this....hope that helps a bit

If it gets too bad, you can always go to ER.....sucks, but better than being in pain

thanks girl...gameplan is I'm going to stop in their office tomorrow at lunchtime, get the order and then ask if I can just do it at the lab there. (I have no clue why they would make me go to Quest when I have done it there in the past)

Oh I hope you have off, you probably do, most people have off except for me of course. I am taking it though so will lose 8 hours pay but I am not working a holiday.



Awesome Cheri! I need a new job!!
I hope you feel better.

Hey I need all ya'lls opinion. I started this job 3 weeks ago, I'm not so fond of it, the pay is very low and the mileage too and from is 32 each way so I'm using a lot of gas for a little money for a job I don't care for. I saw a job in the paper I'd like and I feel guilty for quiting if i get a new job which is closer and pays more. The people here are really nice and very good to me otherwise. However, I am still up ini the air what I am doing as if I a moving with Bryan to MS, if I am staying here and he's going to MS and I hate to start another new job and end up having to quit in August if I do go with him. You see the job I saw that I liked was at my old place and I loved it there. I became friends with the boss and a lot of the other workers so am not sure it would be fair to lie to them that oh yea I am staying here and then not. What do you think?

Do what feels right!! You need to be happy and sane If this job doesn't feel right then get out of there!!! Life is too short not to be happy

You can check into the University of Pennsylvania Hospital or Thomas Jefferson in Philadelphia, see what they have to offer as well. You definitely need someone better than your local yokel doctor there!

Also Northwestern University and University of Chicago have teaching hospitals which come with outstanding reputations. Don't give up until you know what's going on

Can I vent?

I think I have a UTI...well, I'm almost 100% sure I do. (The bizarre thing is that the burning only happens in the evening, not during the day )
Well, as y'all know, I went to the Dr. last Tuesday with all the stomach stuff, as well as back pain (over where my kidneys are) -- it was not my regular Dr. because I couldn't get in to see him. Well they had done a urine test in their lab and it came back clear. So did the CBC So they did an ultrasound and I was still waiting on that.

Anyway it wasn't burning when I went to the bathroom at the time but over the past few days it has been (just in the evening, like I said before)
So I called that Dr's office this morning and left a message with the nurse, explaining that I thought I had a UTI and that I was there last week, etc.

So the stupid friggin nurse called me back. She goes “your ultrasound came back just fine. I have an order for you to do a urine sample at Quest diagnostics..” and I pretty much interrupted her and said “but Quest takes a couple of days to get results back” She said “on a urine sample I would think it’s pretty quick” I said “no, they send all their stuff off, they don’t even do it there” and she put me on hold. Then she’s like “okay, well I’m sorry I’m gonna have to get you to do it at Quest. I'll call them every day to see if the results are in. I’ll leave the orders in the front if you want”

Then I asked what time they[the dr. office] close…she said 4. I said well I can’t pick it up today, can you fax it? She said no, I can mail it to your home if you want. (uh, no?? that would take a couple days) I basically just huffed and said, there’s NO way you can give me a script? I’ve had a ton of these and I know what it is. I told her I’ll even take one of those home tests. She said no, we can’t do that blah blah blah. I said fine, I guess I’ll have to pick up the order at lunch tomorrow and do it then. (then of course wait 2 or 3 days (which would mean probably not til MONDAY) for the results and then I’ll either be better by then or be in sheer agony…..%%^$$!#$@%%^ stupid!!!) I'm REALLY REALLY TICKED OFF AT THAT OFFICE!

Hope you feel better soon.......

I'm posting less because I get confused sometimes when I'm multi quoting, if I am doing something else, which I usually am, lol, by the time I go back to write what I wanted to write, I dont' know what I was going to write about as the post that that post quoted doesn't show so have no idea anymore what it was about anyway, lol. But I'm here reading!!!!

I am sooooooo with QM - thanks Karen - it is so by the time I read all the pages (you guys are very busy during the day) I lose my train of thought (definitely my old age showing) and I forget what I am going to write........what a dingbat I am

So if I don't post as often it isn't because I'm not here I AM!!!!!! Just can't multitask that way anymore......... My DD's would be rolling their eyes at me with this statement. DD21 has already declared me ANCIENT at age 53

 

[Trentmom]

why not, I'll try it

Let me know how you make out

 

[Trentmom]

Hey Linda.

I think I just missed ya

How are things?

 

[kaoden39]

Cheri, I have something you may want to try. Go to the store and get cranberry juice and drink it. Cranberry juice has some great properties in it that help with UTIs.

I've been taking cranberry pills but I'm out of them now. I don't feel good so I really don't want to to walk around the store.

Boy I can sure understand that. I wish I was close so I can help you. The whole thing with the DR's office was BS. Is it a new person in the office?

No, I went to a different dr alltogether...I couldn't get into mine. So I figured calling this same dr. would be a good idea since they just saw me. But obviously that didn't work. I think if I go tomorrow at lunch I'll be able to do the test in the lab there and they'll get the results quickly. Then I can pick up the antibiotics after work.

I hope so. It sounded to me like she is a person that shouldn't be working with the public.

Well we had six celebrity deaths and we thought we were over with for now. Well we have just started a new round and here's number one. I recognized his face and name but don't really know his work well. It is Impressionist Fred Trevelena.

Hi Mom

Never heard of him

Hopefully if anyone else dies, it is not someone well known, so world is not all sad again

 

[Disneymommom]

Hi girlie

Glad you are having nice weather

It was hot today and not overcast and under thunderstorm warning



Hi OB'


sorry you still feeling blah



Not getting off Friday or monday..on our schedule it said..closed saturday...only like 5% of people there work sat...what a waste

But I only work partime, so can not complain too much



You go girl



you can do it..........(insert billy madison voice here)



I seen a few other people mention that. I think that is a program on the dis. I don't think that is an actual user.

I had another person on mine..Did not recongize them, so went to their profile, so I would show on theirs, so they would know I saw them on mine



So, what are you taking off? Conrfuzzled.. Friday or Monday??

Not sure what to tell you

Tough decision

DIn't town talk lay a bunch of people off a year ago

was that them?

I be careful

That stinks that the bank is not giving Fri or Mon off. I'm sorry honey. If I decide to definitely take off I will be taking off Friday. I had originally wanted to take off Monday and celebrate my birthday but since Bryan has to fly out of here Monday at 5:00 a.m. there's not much sense taking off. So I decided on Friday.

Yes that was them that laid off. They had a couple big lay offs, they had duplicate jobs in the Shreveport office so they got rid of the duplicates and dead wood and now they seem to be doing better, or so I've been told.

OH...MY...GOSH. You killed a mommy! I HATE those! They carry their newborns on their back. Only, unlike us, they have HUNDREDS at a time and they carry them ALL. I've had that happen to me, and so has Mike, in our HOUSE at that!

Yep, I killed a mommy though I didn't know at the time it was a Mommy until I squashed it and out they all few. Itw as so gross. I think I'd have died had that been in our house! What did you and Mike do when it happened in your house? I would have freaked out!

That sucks girl

Our office used to be like that. Thank god they finally will fax referral or do it electronic now.

Is there any over counter stuff you can take for a UTI in the meantime?



Have a fun weekend

I was about to tell Cheri about Azo. Its designed to hold you until you can get to the doctor and get antibiotics. I have used it many, many times and it really does take away some of that pain and pressure feeling until you get the real medication.

cranberry juice and lots of tylenol. And Azo actually makes a special pill for the urinary pain, so I might pick that up tonight. (I got a sample in the mail that I had been holding for just such an occasion but I hadn't tried it yet to see how it works....forgot about it til late last night after I had already taken tylenol)

Take the Azo, it works for a temporary fix. I have tried the cranberry juice years ago but I don't really like cranberry juice so I spent the entire time drinking Peach Schnapps and cranberry juice. I don't know if it worked or at some point I just did not care, LOL> I don't think it will hurt if you take a Tyelnol and an Azo! Feel better girl!

Do what feels right!! You need to be happy and sane If this job doesn't feel right then get out of there!!! Life is too short not to be happy

Thanks Linda! I'm so torn about the job thing that I need all the opinions I can get.

I thought I was the only one who rode the short bus not being able to remember what I was going to say when I multi quote, lol. I'm so glad I am not alone.

You think you are ancient, on Monday, I am official old!

Me and Tweety have something in common

I've been taking cranberry pills but I'm out of them now. I don't feel good so I really don't want to to walk around the store.

No, I went to a different dr alltogether...I couldn't get into mine. So I figured calling this same dr. would be a good idea since they just saw me. But obviously that didn't work. I think if I go tomorrow at lunch I'll be able to do the test in the lab there and they'll get the results quickly. Then I can pick up the antibiotics after work.

While you are already out at lunch tomorrow pick up some of those Azo pills, you can get them in Walgreens, CVS, Walmart, any of those stores and there's another one now, not sure if it works any better but will be on the same shelf as Azo.

If I lived nearer to you, I"d go to the store for you now. Mike likes to go to Walmart late at night, get him to go get you some Azo!
