Hi I’m back!!!

[Debbweb01]

Hi it’s Debbie! Just wanna say hi to all of my friends on this forum! I miss y’all! For past 21/2 years I’ve been busy taking care of my Hubby Stan! He had bladder cancer, heart attack and His Alzheimer’s has progressed, as they said it would after a round of Chemotherapy and Radiation! He has no cancer, but has no words cuz he forgot them! He’s been in great place for 3 months now, as I can’t take care of him anymore! I’m waiting on Veterans Administration to get him with his Buddies from Korean War! As was his wishes! I’ve been ill of late as I haven’t had time to care for myself! I have this new disease that I suffered for 5 months with! Went to dentist, Rheumotologist and ENT and she cured me! I have something called Burning Mouth syndrome! Rare they say! Only 20,000 people in USA have it! I went to ENT and she took me off plaquinil immediately, gave me special paste for my mouth and Mary this is for you~~~ Since I had 6 stomach operations, I was depleted of Vitamin B12! She said if I don’t get Vitamin B12 shots, MY BURNING MOUTH SYNDROME WILL COME BACK! Now I go once a month for my B12 shots! It helped cause it didn’t come back! I’m Blessed cause it was hell! It comes from Sjogrens Syndrome! I recently had hematoma on my stomach which got infected of course, They cut it to release the blood! I got it from my Lovenox shots! They said I hit a blood vessel! After 2 years of giving myself shots this is a first! Has anyone else had that happen? It was painful and size of baseball! I’m trying to take care of myself now, but still have my Mentally Challenged Stepson to care for! He’s developed Parkinson’s! It’s been a long road! Another for Mary I’m on hi dosage of vitamin advice! I take one pill every week now! I also take DOLEVENT FOR MIGRAINS! Had one for 6!weeks and Neurologist couldn’t help me accept for Dolevent! It has Vitamin B and coq10 in it and one more ingredient! It has helped me immensely! I can’t wait to hear fro Y’all! Missed you all! Not so fab and Mary and Kirstin! Omg all of you!!! Godspeed

[Debbweb01]

Oh Mary that was Vitamin D I’m on once a week as I’m depleted also

Hi Deb!

Good to hear from you over there. Good with the B12 and Vit D and other vitamins (Mary´s advice).

Sorry about your husband but as you say you can try to take care of yourself better now.

I am 75 now and know it when I look at my grandchildren. I have my Warfarin at a high INR as usual and am happy with that. Also well treated in the hospital. I sing a lot but have not started to paint yet and therefor I still hang on here.

I wish you well! GODSPEED! Kerstin

[Debbweb01 in reply to Lure2]

Thank you Kirstin! Are you in the hospital now? I hope all ok with you! Missed everyone! Good to be back! Godspeed

[Lure2 in reply to Debbweb01]

Not in the hospital thank God! I am fine!

Hi, well done for getting so much sorted out, make sure they keep an eye on your folate and ferritin also with your B12 testing. I am so pleased that the things you are doing with your doctor are working for you, sending you very best wishes. MaryF

Hey Deb!!!!

Howdy Howdy from the Lone Star State! 🤠🌵

Lord Have mercy I’m busier than a three legged cat in a sand box the last two days.

Got a sick kid at home. He went on a family trip and came home with ,” Peruvian Plague.” High fevers, etc. Today was trip to doctor- steroids and antibiotics.

I’m very glad to hear you have some plans in place to help with your husband.

And the Sjögren’s mouth complications. That is very good news. It makes total sense. I know you must feel such relief. The Dolevent is a life saver for you, I’m going to look into this. Monday my son sees my Hematologist ( we share the same one.)

Great to hear from you again, Deb. It’s been too long!

Hi Deb! I love your attitude! And now, my latest joke:

So, you ask me why I don't invite John Milton over for game night anymore? Its because he always loses a pair 'a dice!

[Tofino5]

You certainly have your hands full, but I’m glad you’re doing better and getting things sorted out. Burning Mouth sounds painful. Sorry about your husband but it sounds like he is in a good spot with good care. I’m going to look into the dolovent for my migraines. Welcome back

[Debbweb01 in reply to Tofino5]

Yes I get it on amazon! It’s very helpful I take 2 in morning and 2 in evenings! It really worked for me! Want to tell Kelly in Texas to get on Amazon! Don’t know if u have Amazon in UK, but I get 3 bottles of I think 2 or 300 capsules! It also has vitamin B and Magnesium I think and COQ10! Please anyone with Migraines try it!!!

[Tofino5]

Thanks! I’m in the US, so I’ll have a look on Amazon.

[Debbweb01]
