OT: Sleep Apnea

Question:

Don’t worry too much. Worryng will make you feel afraid, and even afraid of being worried, so distract yourself with other tasks and don’t take too much trouble about all this until you see your practicioner. If you are on BZ’s be a little more careful though. Anyway, it gonna be okay (after all, is not breast cancer, is it?).

Response:

I just made an appointment with my GP. I suspect that I have Sleep Apnea. My wife says I sometimes stop breathing in my sleep, I snore loudly and I’m tired all the time. What action will my GP take in reguards to this. I read up on it and apparantly it’s got something to do with ab-normal heart rhythm. Which is a little worrying! — "We are what we think.  All that we are arises  with our thoughts." – Buddha in the Dhammapada – ChrisC

Need Purrs

Question:

Today is my mom’s 80th birthday.  I can’t get in touch with her.  She’s somewhere on the road evacuating from New Orleans and the wrath of Katrina. All phone circuits to New Orleans and to cell phones in that area are busy and it’s impossible to get through.  I know she’s with my brother, SIL, niece (and her family), but it worries me that they’ll be stuck in a car for hours and hours (as Victor just told me – and it’s gotten worse since then – it taking 24 hours to traverse the normally 6 hour drive from N.O. to Houston (although they’re not heading this way, they’re heading into central Louisiana to a nice little resort town where they stay in a pet-friendly hotel)). My daughter, SIL, and three granddaughters have not even started on their way here yet – they’re leaving in a few hours – so they’ll probably be on the road trying to get here for the next 30+ hours (stuck in a car with three children and two d*gs, bless their hearts!!!). Please send purrs that everyone will reach their destinations safely (and if you could spare some, please send some for me to help me stay sane through a visit by the MIL-and-her-dogs from hell). Over the next few days, our house will be full of 6 adults, 3 children, 5 d*gs, and 5 cats!!!!. Thankfully, my granddaughters and my daughter’s two dogs are the most well-behaved creatures on the face of the planet, so that’s not a problem – they will actually be a relief from the problem and a joy in my life right now.

Houston (although they’re not heading this way, they’re heading into central Louisiana to a nice little resort town where they stay in a pet-friendly hotel)).

Yay!!! :) My daughter, SIL, and three granddaughters have not even started on their way here yet – they’re leaving in a few hours – so they’ll probably be on the road trying to get here for the next 30+ hours (stuck in a car with three children and two d*gs, bless their hearts!!!).

Lots of calming purrs for all of them! Please send purrs that everyone will reach their destinations safely (and if you could spare some, please send some for me to help me stay sane through a visit by the MIL-and-her-dogs from hell).

I just can’t imagine trying to escape that mess!  I’ve had my TV glued to the weather channel since yesterday.  I’m trying to call my cousins in New Orleans, but I can’t get a hold of them; hopefully that means they’ve evacuated as well.  My cousin, Remi, is currently undergouing chemo for breast cancer, so I’m wondering how Katrina’s going to affect her. I sincerely hope that your family comes through completely unscathed.  Let us know when you *do* hear from them. kili

Response:

least not as a ‘cane!)…..take Victor’s advice & put the dogs from hell out in *fenced yard* w/no backtalk from anyone visiting. A word of advice which you may not want to take: having weathered many ‘canes in *many ways* starting in my youth, sometimes it’s best to partydown and fill testy guests up so much w/booze they sleep the ‘cane off peacefully in their assigned whole situation. As I said, not a solution for everyone: you gotta know which guests could turn nasty when snockered.

http://www.hyphenologist.co.uk/killfile/killfilefaqhtm.htm Rich

Response:

Good morning gentlemen, I hope your day is progressing along in a most excellent and satisfying way.  Actually, I really didn’t know how to "killfile"; as with most computer issues, unless I am forced to learn how to perform the various functions I generally just don’t.  Good, bad or indifferent, that’s just the way I’ve handled the whole computer thing from day one, which was in 1996, when I learned how to turn on a PC, and turn it off.  It’s actually quite amazing to me how much of it I am able to do, when I think back at how utterly unable I was at one time. As to some of the issues that have been bantered about, I’ll just list some thoughts, as I’m a little tired; it’s been a fairly rough week, and will culminate on Thursday with dental surgery – isn’t that just ducky…. a)  I tend to think that people can make their own discernments as to what is reasonable and what isn’t.  Even if they can’t it is certainly no moral or other imperative for me to assist them unless I choose to do so, for reasons that are entirely mine requiring no justification to anyone. b)  I find amusement in many things – as well as irony, profundity, joy, sorrow and a host of other potential feeling states.  In the case of mcs, I am simply finding irritation, much like a fly in the car while in heavy traffic.  To be told that I come here primarily to "play a nurse"  far exceeds my capacity for amusement, or even toleration really.  I am a real nurse, and I am consummate at it, I give my best effort every day to offer help and support to people who might need some – that is what we do. Nursing isn’t only a job – it’s a profession.  There are many things that make me feel good about myself on any given day – failure to be aware of specific and identified annoyances is unnecessary for me to add to the list. No judgment is implied about your list, I’m simply giving you information about mine. 3)  The logic in your guess regarding my intent (re. killfile) is unassailable on any number of levels, the most obvious of which is "people do what they WANT to do" so it stands to reason/common-sense that if you do not do something, it’s entirely probable that you did not want to do it. From a past tense perspective that is all perfectly valid in this instance. Things change however, and at this time, killfile is exactly what I precisely DO wish to do, and I assure you that I will accomplish that task, even if I have to enlist the assistance of a professional (not difficult; I have a number of friends in the IT industry).  It is simple enough to ignore people – absolutely.  It’s even simpler to not have to ignore something you never saw in the first place. Here’s to simplicity, G

For once, I think you have a valid point and the answer is a definite and resounding "yes".  Take care. I agreed with you then and agree with you now – except for one tiny thing. Statements such as "If people really wanted to know support for anxiety they would get as far away from psychiatrists as humanly possible" need to be challenged, lest it lay there in the open to be seen as a possibly good suggestion. That’s something aside from the ‘folly’ side of such people (amusement factor, if you will ;) that I’ve never been able to leave alone. That’s why I’ve never used, nor ever will use, a kill file. E… — Elliott      remove eee to eeemail http://home.earthlink.net/~ejk2/

Response:

lol the point is , I would never try to harm or criticize someone for no known reason.You were not here when Elliot started it and he keeps replying although he doesn’t care too much so he says. I think the guy is a hypocrite and  will say or do anything to come across a certain way. In reality he panics cause he realizes he can’t control everybody or thing. . Having said that anxiety is ultimately lost of control of safety issues and if one is in panic mode they shouldn’t be the ones pointing the fingers at others who do also unless the guy has learned to take no responsibility for his actions". The point is we learn or sometimes we learn thru posting about ourselves or at others, and I react if I think I am right.. Gary you never said most of the time what I said that was right, and you rarely said anything about the other sides responsibilty and you pretend you know the differences.Then you say you have doubts about meds and then give advice about meds. yeah so I think you do get confused too. Most people here don’t come here for support, they come here to play Dr. or nurse in your case. If people really wanted to know support for anxiety they would get as far away from psychiatrists as humanly possible

"I don’t want to take out my frrustration (sic) on myself or others" Steve, if you can’t see the contradictions in what you say all the time here, it really is pointless (or ‘mental masturbation’ as E put it) to even continue.  My original diagnosis assessment ("I have done all I can here") somehow got ignored by me, and I think I need to re-visit that idea.

Your logic in the "non kill-file" usage policy is unassailable Elliott, however so are some brands of arrogant idiocy, and I just can’t (more like "wont") deal w/ it at this point.   Since you will never kill the file, I feel safe in doing so – for the sake of the greater good/public info etc… If I could just figure out how to do it !

Statements such as "If people really wanted to know support for anxiety they would get as far away from psychiatrists as humanly possible" need to be challenged, lest it lay there in the open to be seen as a possibly good suggestion.

" 24 hours with you wold (sic) be enough for anyone to selfdestruct.Oh wait some have already, me sooo surprised…" "Why? I think its true with Elliott . so what?" "I don’t want to take out my frrustration (sic) on myself or others" Steve, if you can’t see the contradictions in what you say all the time here, it really is pointless (or ‘mental masturbation’ as E put it) to even continue.  My original diagnosis assessment ("I have done all I can here") somehow got ignored by me, and I think I need to re-visit that idea.

Here is my respons to someone who talked about ocd.please cut and paste post.  I think excess energy can contribute to fear. Its where you place that excess energy that sometimes makes all the difference. My own personal experience. Fear of bridges. If I don’t get myself calm like by exercising for at least 2 hours beforehand or a day before. I have extremely hard time. My mind races with thoughts and I am slave to these moments or emotions. My intellect cannot stop them. I have crossed bridges this way still but the fear was more or less uncontainable.So in that realm I can see how excess energy can contribute to fears. Now Gary you never comment about anything I say that suggests changes.  You only pinpoint negative things too often and often what I have to say is about policies. Only when Elliott or someone who is very obnoxious comes into play I respond but truthfully its more disconcerting to see you get involved in this .  .I also never ever heard you disagree with anything a female had to say.also  If you think life is to suggest people taking meds for anxiety again your woefully wrong  and missing the point of life. I have seen so much and while amall percent might be helped , a even larger percent would do better by changing lifestyles and condition surrounding themselves then taking meds or reading some new mood therapy book.

"Nurse," he mumbles, from behind the mask. "Are my testicles black?" Embarrassed, the young nurse replies, "I don’t know, Sir. I’m only here to wash your upper body and feet." He struggles to ask again, "Nurse, are my testicles black?" Concerned that he may elevate his vitals from worry about  his testicles, she overcomes her embarrassment and  sheepishly pulls back the  covers.   She raises his gown, holds his penis in one hand and his testicles in the other. Then, she takes a close look and says, "There’s nothing wrong with them, Sir!" The man pulls off his oxygen mask, smiles at her and says  very slowly, "Thank you very much.  That was wonderful, but, listen very, very closely…… A r e – m y – t e s t – r e s u l t s – b a c k?

Since your soo fast in making assumptions. Lets examine the same critique to my assumptions about Bush or air pollution or why I am anxious. Also consider this is just kind of funny to me. When my mom goes crazy when she herself is nuts or when Elliott goes crazy when he is nuts, shows  a strong lack of observation of oneself. Its always they….. to these people I admit I have some drawbacks and do have some anxieties. Lets say if it shows I am mean here its best to suggest better here then out there. . Also I will throw out this. in the case of fortitude and understanding that some people who feel about some of the issues sit on their ass which is exactly why Bush wins two times. Its time people stand up and take a stand. With Elliott, there is absolutely no meaness intended. its just the truth as I see it. I didn’t say I hope anything happens to him, I just know what kind of freak he is. period.

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – "The bottom line is try not to take too much what anyone says here seriously." OK… "I think there are emotions and then there is intellect. I come here to see if I can unify them more." a)  If we are "not to take too much what anyone says here seriously" then why would you ever be successful in unifying anything, or creating this "change" you so strongly claim to support? b)  Not content with the first stab, you (not so subtlely) stabbed again, this time giving the dog the cancer.  This is disconcerting and sad, reflective of an angry and disenfranchised product of a way-too-big and mean town, and probably precious little else. but don’t worry about it, because I’m not "real life", and we certainly don’t live with each other.  People who post here ARE real people – whether you have the insight to see that or not is immaterial; they are real and so are their concerns.  Your narcissism is frightening at times.  People who try to "out mean" others do not impress me, and actually just show how devolved our society is on a number of levels. "I have always tried to show broader correlation and how things are connected in all areas of life." If that was really the case, you would realize that being unkind to anyone, regardless of whether you "like" them or not – is a negative and unproductive use of your time, and can only harm.  Your grandiosity coupled with a less than optimal "intellect" and semi-loose associations again forces me to (in the spirit of a committment to honesty) suggest that you may have a thinking disorder – probably of the schizophreniform sort. "The best thing we can do is try to do is try to move the emotion part a little bit more to the intelligent part whereas we live in unison with our lives." That could almost (maybe) be construed as a defensible statement, except that… well, it just wouldn’t be polite to say much else here……. G Gary you and others here get into he said she said too much, because in reality  there are way more important issues going on  and I usually outline them on other groups and sometimes here. . I think I have said this many times. I think there are emotions and then there is intellect. I come here to see if I can unify them more. . Anxiety is often nothing less then fears of not knowing what the future will bring . People say whatever they want to try to mitigate those fears.  some of it appears real and some of it doesnt, some of it is funny and some of it is to take up time. The bottom line is try not to  take too much what anyone says here seriously. This is not real life lol  It might well be reflective of real situations going on in our brain, and  a place to release tension and frustration etc. But  in fact don’t live with each other do we? True I don’t like Elliott but so what? I know many people don’t like me, but when you try to make progress on issues or in life people hate sometimes the scent of reality or change.. Change is extremely threatnings and so the status quo is often much more reliable and friendly. Because more people like the status quo don’t mean its right . Because  a clik of people accept certain people and things here, don’t mean I can’t still go over the mix also. a group of ten people out of  a group of millions can be indicative of a good click  or it can be just one variation of a  dysfunctional group.. This is like  a fire drill to go over how I might react in real life to same situations. If I knew someone like Elliot in real life I would avoid him thats all. . . Everything we do we have decisions, yes no , opinion about him or her. The best thing we can do is try to do is try to move the emotion part a little bit more to the intelligent part whereas we live in unison with our lives.  I have always tried to show broader correlation and how things are connected in all areas of life.I have tried to take my anxiety and utilize it where it become useable instead of a drain. I am not one who can block things out so I learn to put them into different places in my brain. Sort of like filtering out the information. . Hopefully we all have our own real lives outside this group.  In fact I think  this   is good therapy

Gary, you are also without any doubt one to say things because you think it makes good type. I can’t believe how you try to get involved in every post. then you say you don’t want to appear like you come off whatever. Perhaps you would feel better in trying to get in touch with your emotion. Everyone has fears , disliked etc.I do try to rationalize mine. You say things to people and you miss the point so much. We have a strong disagreement with perceptions.

two people on here who criticized when I posted initially and I had not said anything negative or mean till then to anyone here, one I won’t name and the other is you.  It takes a special shumuck with problems and panic to not recognize the same things in others as in yourself  but I said that before and I think Elliott says what people want to hear not whats really on his mind and thus maybe this is why he Panics. but dont worry about me k?

they tell you violent crime Msg: 943 of 943 is down. They don’t tell you the true numbers about anything else unless they want to make you think everything is wonderful. Lets see violent crime is down for two states on Saturday afternoon bed, dragged a comb – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – across the head – found the way downstairs and drank a cup, and looking up, noticed it was late – but took the time to write: Steve is being mean, to someone who doesn’t really care (not that much anyway). I don’t care about him and me at all – really. I’ve been around far too long and dealt far greater idiots than him ;) As I’d posted previously, people need to be careful about posting personal information because a jerk such as Steve, or others, might decide to toss it back as a way to hurt (and only because he has no other way to respond – as any real thoughts and/or ideas don’t exist ;) .  That can hurt (if not destroy, to an extent) certain other people. Internet or not, it’s a part of real life. There are many people who use Usenet as a lifeline because they either have nothing else, or they think it ‘is’ their world. A personal jab to certain people can (and has) deepened depression & turned people away from the forum they depended on to vent – as they had given out very personal details in the process. Usenet is an anarchy, and always has been. It can be a great way to get information of all sorts. It can be a great way to be involved in all sorts of debates, as well as find moral support and…. even find friends. It can also help those with afflictions find out that they’re not alone, and find help and support via the many many support groups. It’s those that seem the most vulnerable (support group members) as if a woman reports on a rape group some details about herself, and some moron decides to say some jerk off thing such as "get it right, girlie – you were asking for it" – I’d say that the original poster needed to be aware that such an event could take place. Steve is such a person who has proven (proven) that he would do something quite as similar. I only feel it fair that others be careful.  My guess is that he’d never use any information unless one where tell him shut the fuck up – and that’s where he runs out of gas and HAS to resort to ’some way’ to counter. Intellectually, he has no way, so he has to use data that has been supplied. I won’t bring up what he said about me again, as it isn’t a concern of mine, nor does it bother me. It was so that others could know that he’s capable of such things, that could hurt them. As I said, it could hurt some to an extent that he has no idea, since he doesn’t think this is ‘real.’  How wrong. It (the internet) is part of the real world. Any form of communication is part of ones’ real world/universe – and a part of their personal environment and total life experience. Steve (or Tom Thumb) will just have to suck himself some more and get used to the idea that he’s not even 1/2 ;) — Elliott      remove eee to eeemail http://home.earthlink.net/~ejk2/

The best thing we can do is try to do is try to move the emotion part a little bit more to the intelligent part whereas we live in unison with our lives.  I have always tried to show broader correlation and how things are connected in all areas of life.I have tried to take my anxiety and utilize it where it become useable instead of a drain. I am not one who can block things out so I learn to put them into different places in my brain. Sort of like filtering out the information. . Hopefully we all have our own real lives outside this group.  In fact I think  this   is good therapy

1/2 well as Elliott?  (so you’ll phone halfway home?) ELLL-EEEE-OTTTTT!!!! I am thinking I can take a video of me and the neighborhood dog before the poor dog gets doggy cancer.

Response:

Steve is being mean, to someone who doesn’t really care (not that much anyway).  Steve hates Elliott, and it appears that Elliott has little use for Steve as well.  This started with some "debate" (steve-esque debate style is my guess) which annoyed Elliott, about CBT (not the one ur thinkin’ of baby)- – and then Steve told Elliott, in so many words, that he was probably responsible for his own wife’s illness (breast cancer – which she survived).  Everyone chewed Steve out, he decided the only sensible thing (?) to do was dig his heels in and say he doesn’t care about "popularity" (which appears to be amply true, at least here anyway).  Elliott asked for apology – which is the one thing I don’t completely understand, if he truly finds Steve insignificant – why ask him for anything?  But I digress, and will probably be called worse than Ratched now…. Point is, Steve would not, so there is now permanent bad blood between these two cats – and now Steve is attacking Elliott’s dogs with allusions to cancer, etc.. (Very poor form, Steve – if you truly wanna fuck with someone, at least get a little better at it…) I hope that has brought you up to speed Tanya.  Were you in jail all this time or something? G

Actually, I kind of like the 3 line concept, and will keep it in mind. Sometimes it is helpful to me to express outrage in this forum, and while likely not always time-proportional to the actual value of the message, it may actually keep me from installing a bazooka on the roof of my car.

Why Soda should be banned

Question:

6 OUT OF 7!!

Response:

Its not the Soda that causes diabetes, but rather the sugar in it. Sugar should be banned…but then again, if you ban sugar, which leads to diabetes, breast cancer and tons of other diseases, you are left with things like aspertame and Splenda, which do not lead to diabetes, but does lead to other ailments…. If you ban them too and only take in natural sugars, such as sugar in fruit, you then become exposed to Methanol, as I got on an other website: "Exposure to methanol also results from the consumption of certain foodstuffs (fruits, fruit juices, certain vegetables, aspartame sweetener, roasted coffee, honey) and alcoholic beverages.  In humans, ingested or inhaled methanol is always quickly largely converted into formaldehyde and thence largely into formic acid." So basically, fruit and natural sugar will kill you too. Personally, I believe all things should be in moderation.  It is fine to have 1 soda every so often….you may want to choose diet every now and then though. We can not live our lives in fear of everything we eat.  If you want to eat natural foods all the time, thats fine, although your fruits and veggies are sprayed while they are growing, so they are not natural anymore… Sorry for rambling on, but I know people who  are on "Sweeteners/Splenda/Aspertame, etc is bad for you…eat sugar instead" kicks.  In doing my own research, everything is bad for you if in excess.

Response:

I did some homework on the effects of Soda today and I discovered two facts: Drinking just one serving of soda nearly doubles your chances of getting diabetes. 75% of Americans drink at least one serving of soda. If you put these facts together, it implies that 6 out of 7 cases of diabetes is caused by soda! 6 OUT OF 7!!! Repeat: 6 OUT OF 7!!! Now you be the judge. Is soda still harmless? Andrew Lin

Response:

We can not live our lives in fear of everything we eat.

SPOT ON! If you want to eat natural foods all the time, thats fine, although your fruits and veggies are sprayed while they are growing, so they are not natural anymore…

…not to mention animals being fed hormones & other strange stuff… Sorry for rambling on, but I know people who  are on "Sweeteners/Splenda/Aspertame, etc is bad for you…eat sugar instead" kicks.  In doing my own research, everything is bad for you if in excess.

Again, spot on. And not only that, but what’s ‘good’ and ‘bad’ for you changes all the time. Every study making ‘new’ claims about some food or other brings with it a whole lot of new products either containing the ‘good’ ingredient or replacing the ‘bad’ one with something else as well as sparking a marketing campaign for existing products that already contain the ‘good’ thing. In many cases, the only real beneficiaries of all these stories are food manufacturers and retailers.

Response:

OT humor- mammograms….

Question:

- Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Mammograms — or The Jaws of Life         I know my memory’s fading. I actually kept my mammogram         appointment. I chose a seat next to a man and his wife in the waiting room.        Both the chairs and conversations were so comfortable that before long I’d        totally forgotten why I was there and asked the man. "So…what are you here for?"        Talk about a showstopper.        Dead silence just as "Nurse Ratchet" announced my name in her best baritone        voice. I thought, "Great…..a name to match the idiot." I rushed past the        giggles and hurried after the angel of no mercy. Rounding the corner, I was        met with, "Hi ! I’m Belinda!" This perky clipboard carrier smiled from ear        to ear, tilted her head to one side and crooned, "Allll I need you to do is        step into this room right hereee, strip to the waist, thennnn slip on this        gown. Everything clearrrr?"        I’m thinking, "Belinda…try decaf. This ain’t rocket science."        Belinda skipped away to prepare the chamber of horrors.        Call me crazy, but I suspect a man invented this machine. It takes a        perfectly healthy cup size of 36-B to a size 38-LONG in less than 60 seconds        Also, girls aren’t made of sugar and spice and everything nice…it’s        Spandex. We can be stretched, pulled and twisted over a cold 4-inch        piece of square glass and still pop back into shape.        With the right side finished, Belinda flipped me (literally) to the left and        said, "Hmmmm. Can you stand on your tippy toes and lean in a tad so        we can get everything?" Fine, I answered. I was freezing, bruised, and        out of air, so why not use the remaining circulation in my legs and neck and        finish me off?        My body was in a holding pattern that defied gravity when we heard, then        felt, zap! Complete darkness. "What?" I yelled.        "Oh, maintenance is working. Bet they hit a snag." Belinda headed        for the door.        "Excuse me! You’re not leaving are you?" I shouted.        Belinda kept going and said, "Oh, you fussy puppy….the door’s wide        open so you’ll have the emergency hall lights. I’ll be righttttt backkkk."        Before I could shout "NO" she disappeared.        And that’s exactly how Bubba and Earl, maintenance men extraordinaire, found        me, half-naked and parts of me dangling from the Jaws of Life. After        exchanging polite "Hi, how’s it going" type greetings, Bubba (or possibly        Earl) asked, to my utter disbelief, if I knew the power was off.       Trying to disguise my hysteria, I replied with as much calmness as possible.       "Uh, yes, yes we did, thanks."        "You bet, take care" Bubba replied and waved good-bye as thought we’d been        standing in the line at the grocery store.        Two hours later, Belinda breezes in wearing a sheepish grin and making no        attempt to suppress her amusement, she said. "Oh I am soooo sorry!        The power came back on and I totally forgot about you!  And silly me, I        went to lunch.  Are we upset?"        And that, Your Honor, is exactly how her head ended up between the clamps

Response:

Astounding for sure.  I had a mammogram several years back to check for breast cancer.  Reason for this was the fact that with the amount of potent nugs (1/4 oz) per day – medical of course – ordered by my M.D.  :)  Such consumption seems to cause rapid female breast tissue to develop.  Testosterone shots are needed to keep from having a full developed set of impressive tits.  Damned the body just churns away making estrogen and well that starts the tissue growth. What to do – take shots and keep it under control or just puff on and let them grow???

After next week they’ll decide if she can go back to work at all. Unfortunately, I think she’s being very foolish and not following the doctor’s orders very well :( So good, uneventful surgery purrs for Mom and "keep that baby in there until he’s fully developed" purrs for my SIL would be greatly appreciated.  In the meantime, we’ll continue our "pop those healthy kittens out quick" purrs for Sonya, healing purrs for Bandit, Bonnie, Boone and anyone else who needs them, as well as continued health & well-being purrs for all of you.

Purrs aplenty for both your mom and your SIL. When an overachieving coworker of mine was pregnant, her doctor put her on bedrest for the last few months.  The general consensus was that he’d done so not because she needed bedrest, but because it was the only way he could get her to stop taking phone calls from work and stressing out about the project. — monique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca

hoping this is not cancer… and some questions…

Question:

im a female, 23 years old with hormonal issues and sensitive breast issues from that. i have polycystic ovarian syndrome, which results in imbalanced hormones and ive been on the pill to regulate that and my period since 1997, so, who knows if maybe this is making it worse. i also have an undiagnosed connective tissue related auto-immune disease similar to Lupus, but not Lupus. so, i tend to get very oddly, sore, achey areas on bizaare, random places on my body.  but ive been having a problem where (for the past 2 years or so) every now and then on the side of my left breast, under the underarm, where it gets sore, and feels possibly like a sore gland or something like that. ive felt around the area and dont really feel anything there. some fibery like breast tissue, but thats always there… so there seems to be nothing like a lump or anything or thickening. sometimes when this happens.. the pain shoots up to the inside of my upper arm like where the arm begins after the armpit. it isnt anything severe, but sometimes i feel a similar, but more mild version of it in the same area on the side of my right breast/inside arm. so, its on both breasts. also around this area.. the upper arm, like where the upper muscle will feel achey. if this, was by any chance a type of cancer… or glandular cancer.. would it be happening exactly in the same spot on the other breast like that? the right area didnt really start like that till recently. it just feels like a mildy sore muscle, like from sleeping the wrong way in the bed or something, but it isnt exactly an area of such a problem. i also get the same achey thing in the middle upper area of the breast… (nothing found there from my own exam) i dont think this would be necessarily a shooting pain from the other area. they seem fairly separate. this breast.. the left one.. is much larger than my right one and has always been since i started growing breasts. it runs in my family. so, ive been told to always look out for any problems with it, but its also more dense thn the right one, and its hard to find stuff in it. i had an exam by the gyno doctor and he just felt some fibery stuff, and otherwise seemed normal. but, havent had any mammogram done, and it most likely will be a problem since im so young and the tissues are rather dense. right now im kind of in limbo with the insurance and while waiting, i am a little nervous and worried in the meantime. i just was curious if anyone thinks this could be cancer or something other than just my weird hormonal, tissue issues. with this happening on both sides.. right and left breast (or more so, side of the breast and more so on the left breast and rarely the right, but it does happen), could this be more of a chance of it NOT being something serious?  when this happens, i do usually feel acheyness in a few areas in both breasts. seems to be worse after my period sometimes… but depends. usually happens at any point in my cycle. its right where the side of the breast meets the underarm.

I doubt that this is cancer, it’s unusual to have pain in breast cancer. Surely you’ve been examined by a doctor? Mary

Probably not. – Cancer is very rare in your age group. – Most but not all (breast) cancers, especially the slower growing types, are painless. – Getting cancers in both breasts simultaneously is pretty rare. – Cancers generally do not vary with the menstrual cycle. – Cancers generally progress remorselessly over years, they may pause briefly or get worse.  They don’t often get better, or remain static for years. On the whole this sounds much more like an immune sort of problem. — Tim Jackson -Who needs to pay Microsoft?  Free Open Source Software- www.mozilla.org       FIREFOX Web Browser,  THUNDERBIRD Email/News www.openoffice.org      Office Suite
