Good luck on your test readings, Brain...I hope you get the answers you need...

Oh my dear one.. I hate that I missed this..but like you I am not on any forums much.

Have you every been thoroughly tested for heavy metals?? I mean more than an MD would? Or did anyone ever test for that?? Anyone??

You'd be amazed at how much it causes neuro problems..and cognitive problems and as it builds up it can make you so sick..not to mention in pain etc.

YOU know I care!!

Jan

Glad you survived the tests today, Brainy.

I hope whatever you've got is very treatable.

Go ahead: breathe on me. I've got MS and they say we've got an amped-up immune system. I ain't afeared of ya!

Just wanted to wish you good luck on your tests,Brain. Hope you get some answers. I remember what it was like during that long limbo period.

I'm glad the tests are over. I hope you don't need to go back for the EMG on the other side. Next Thursday you will know if anything showed up - that isn't too long of a wait. Of course, we will be waiting for an update as soon as you get home....

Uh remind me to never, ever get on your bad side!!! BTW, swimming with the fishes sounds better than being swill for the pigs!

Feel better Cathy. I hope everything goes okay on the 20th.

Brain, I know what you mean about the thumb and finger. OUCH! I had that test last year for carpal tunnel which I didn't have thank goodness. The neuro who did mine immediately told me he didn't find anything wrong. I hope you find the answers your needing.

Hope that ole doc can find something to relieve the pain...and hope you are feeling better.

I'm just not looking out the window as much checking on you darlins cause it hurts so to type...but I will always think of you and say a prayer, sometimes two or three...

Shhh... do not say chicken soup with Murphy in the next room. Ever been the victim of a fly-by pooping?



I have to go with tomato soup & grilled cheese else risk standing in the naughty corner covered in droppings like a statute. You can tell I'm not a king.



I wanted to tell you this.. was cleaning Minnie the lovebird's cage yesterday and talking to her (of course!) as I cleaned. I asked, "Whooooo's Mummy's pretty bird?"

And she stepped forward and said, "Ohhhhh, Minnie bird!"

Just like Jesse always does.

That little thing can talk.

Awww..... that's cute, Brain. You do have a great relationship with your birds. Sometimes I wish I would have kept the saucy boy but he took to my grandmother and to you. Ok, your daughter first.

Too funny that you have to say Tomato Soup (and I'm REALLY glad you included the grilled cheese)!! MMmmmmm...... I made homemade tomato soup this year and it was awesome. Used roasted tomatoes for it. YUM!! It was so good I made myself nauseous by eating too much of it at one sitting.

Holly, I don't think you'd EVER get on my nerves like that guy did yesterday. Sheesh.... not sure which sounds worse. I have a thing about drowning, so swimmin wit da fishies doesn't sound too appetizing either.

Which brings me, Brain, to a very weird idea I just had for a story for you. Hmmm... will have to PM you or e-mail.
