My cousin ordered 3 or 4 months ago and never received the bags or boxes. She reordered and still never received them. Just this week she called the supplier.They are placing the order again for my cousin, we'll see if she receives it.

[TMIC] New to list
Hi This is my first post to the list but I read your posts every day. I was stricken with TM January 15, '06. I've been through the MRI's, Spinal Tap, tons of blood tests,etc. The neuro says it's TM. Have lots of pain here, there and everywhere. Never have a good night sleep. I wake up at least every hour, get up move around to relieve some of the stiffness and pain. I've tried Lyrica and Cymbalta and both gave me severe diarrah. My balance is off, I'm always stumbling into things and people look at me as if I'm drunk (I don't drink). On top of TM, I have diabetes. My neuro says if you have more control over your diabetes it will take care of most of your symptoms. Well, I've had diabetes for 15 years and most of my symptoms occured with the onset of TM. If only Drs could walk (or wear) our shoes for a mile. Thank God I can walk although it was hard at first but it gradually improved. Sorry to ramble on but my prayers go out to all of you. By the way my birthday is November 12. Marie
[TMIC] HMO's
Title: AOL Email Hi All and Frank, As usual, I need some advice and help. I am so darn mad I almost cannot stand it! (actually, can't STAND it, at all) LOL I think that most of you know I have been waiting and waiting to go to the seating clinic so that I can get my tilting/reclining wheelchair so that I can get out of this danged bed I have been in since December. Well, the telephone woke me up early this morning with the good news from my doc's office that all of this time the clinic they were sending me to is out of my HMO's territory!!! I hate ineptness so much... (anger) What have I done lately to hurt anybody? (feeling sorry for myself) I have been in this da bed (that I am so thankful to have) since the first of December with two broken legs, after being Paralyzed with complete TM for 4 years (for those of you who do not know this), and I want to get up and in my chair so badly I almost can't stand it! I can't sit in the chair for more than 1/2 hour because my legs swell inside the casts so badly and become so painful that I can't take it and have to go to bed in order to raise them. Besides that, I have a pressure sore inside the anal cavity (caused by the ischema (sp) bone) that bleeds profusely when I perform my normal bowel program. I was so looking forward to the new (my old one was stolen) seat for the new wheelchair... (feeling even more sorry for myself) I just don't know what to do any more. I need help with some ideas and answers. I don't know how to fight "city hall" any longer and am almost out of the strength needed to do it. It's all INSURANCE COMPANY and HMO'S, not to mention the SOCIAL SECURITY COMMISSION who have all of the power...They are in charge and what I/we say is of little or no consequence. Iam getting so pissed!!! (anger) Why is it always one step forward and three steps back? Dr. Frank, I added your name to this email because you know what I need to say and who I mostly need to say it to in order to get something moving in the proper manner, by doing whatever it is in the proper order, addressing the right people! And, I want ACTION, now! What do I do, how do I do it, and who do I address my actions to? Help me, please! Some of you have already been helping from behind the List. Sally, the Nutritionist wrote a lovely letter addressing how the use of a new wheelchair that raises up above my cooktop so that I could take charge of making our meals using healthier foods (Dave does his best, but cooking is not his strong suit...), so that it would help byenhanced healing of pressure sores and stomach ulcers, my weight loss, and all over general health. People have been sending me loving support through the grapevine and I appreciate it all so very, very much. And I appreciate all that Dave does. He takes care of me all by himself...no one comes in to help and we can't afford to pay any type of service. He takes care of the animals, the house, the five acres, the laundry, all of my needs (staying up half the night last night because I had such deathly diarrhea I was in tears), and he works six/ten to twelve hour nights a week, at 54 years old. I don't mean ever to sound like I don't appreciate him. Anyway, I'm sorry for getting out of control with this. And for being so needy. But I am at my wits end and need whatever kind of help any of you can give. Peace and Prayers, Jude
[TMIC] OT:Osteoarthritis Nutrition Tips
Osteoarthritis Nutrition Tips Stiffness, pain and swelling of joints are common symptoms of osteoarthritis. Aside from getting regular exercise (low-impact is the best) and maintaining a healthy weight, consider the following nutritional changes to help prevent or lessens symptoms. Eat foods rich in antioxidants. Fruits and vegetables are good sources, and may help reduce tissue damage from inflammation. Get enough omega-3s. Oily fish such as wild Alaskan salmon, walnuts, freshly ground flaxseed or a good omega-3 supplement may help reduce the inflammation and pain of arthritis. Regularly use ginger and turmeric for their natural anti-inflammatory properties.
