Thanks for the suggestion about the support hose. My right foot and my stomach swell. What helps bloating of the stomach? I have cut my Lyrica down to 2x (75mg) from 3x a day, but it hasn't helped the swelling any. My legs still burn a little, but today I got sunburned and they are on fire now! Lots of rest and sleep help me the most. Guess I'd better go to bed now and see if I can go to sleep. Have a wonderful day!

[TMIC] A very scary observation
Does anyone, other than me, find it very scary to think of somebody who finds that they no longer have feeling in their legs and feet but decides to drive themselves to the emergency hospital?? I myself was paralyzed waist to toes on both sides, so it wouldn't have even been possible for me anyway. However, I have read that at least 2 times recently on this site of people driving themselves. I really have a hard time imagining anyone not phoning for emergency services. My husband wanted to take me to the hospital right away when this happened to me. I stubbornly thought that it would pass, and after about an hour when it didn't, he called our son to come home. They then decided to call the fire department for help to get me down the stairs so he could get me to the hospital. We had about 10 stairs then to exit our home. I wasn't willing to risk he or my son falling and then them having problems as well. After they checked out my vitals and assured they were all fine, they assisted in getting me down the stairs and into his truck and Pete drove me to the hospital.

Re: [TMIC] A very scary observation
I clearly recall when, in 1970; I was working as a B-lineman in line construction, I fell out of a 95¹ H-structure from about 30¹, first thing in the morning, and the time it took me to reach the ground after I cut out from the pole. I was totally calm and relaxed and just waiting to reach the ground. And when it hit, I just said, ³Wow! That was hard!² Then I couldn¹t see my feet because my back was bent the wrong way. So, yes, it¹s calm before the storm.

[TMIC] Re: Swelling Feet
It is the right foot that swells, the right arm and hip are larger, and the right side of my face is larger than the left side. It's so strange. I would have trouble pulling up the hose since my hands and arms are so weak and I can't move my fingers. My caregiver could do it though. Thanks, Cody, for the reply. Have a wonderful day!

Mine is my left and it sounds like yours is the right side. I had to start wearing the hose after I had a huge blood clot in my left leg. I also sleep with my feet elevated. When I wake up in the mornings the skin is lose around my toes. Then I put on my support hose and get dressed. When I take them off at bedtime my ankles will start swelling. That is why I sleep with them elevated. The hose are very tight and difficult to put on (much harder than pantyhose, I think :). I get the feet on first and then pull them up around my thighs. At first it's difficult but it gets much easier after a little practice. Hope that helps youCody in Austin Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

Re: [TMIC] E-mail duplicates
Janice you are correct,,, maybe this will help Hitting reply ALL only works if it is an original email from the Digest. once we start having more repliies added to subjects then the person that replied will get two emails if reply all is hit. by hitting reply all the response sent will pop up two times in the person who just replied/sent the email their email box because your email address is included in the digest list and your email is listed seperatly on the reply. what needs to be done is when hit reply all is to remove the individual names/email address so it does not send 2 times. once to the emial address and once because that persons email address is on the Diegest. when replying if you use just thereply button the the email will ONLY go to the person that sent it and the entire digest list will NOT see a response. Example being - Jamice email is listed in the TO: Bobby Jim is listed in the CC and the tmis-list is also in the CC which means Janice will get two times, once as her email address and once because hers in on the eskimo list. - Original Message - From: Janice Nichols jan...@centurytel.net To: bobby jim elbobber...@earthlink.net, tmic-list@eskimo.com Sent: Sunday, September 19, 2010 11:22:06 PM Subject: Re: [TMIC] E-mail duplicates But why are we getting the digest thing at all?
