Elmore, that reminds me of a conversation Kerry and I had once in a diner.  (They had photos of Marilyn Monroe in one corner.)

Me: "We can sit in the Marilyn Corner."
DR Kerry: "What porn?"
Me: "Popcorn???"

DR Sandra was in stitches.

Funny!! :))

DR JEANNE my BE ACTIVE brace is helping the pain somewhat....it's still there but it is not quite as severe.

I think it may help more as the day goes on.

The brace is for sale for $20 on the website, but I got a new one on EBAY for $6 including shipping.

Search for BEACTIVE Brace.

Thanks for the feedback, JRand. I think you got a real bargain!

Poor BK is getting hit with a one-two punch.

My thoughts are akin to DR Amy's: Tylenol isn't an anti-inflammatory. Personally, I use plain ole aspirin. Whatever you use, you should take it with some food.

I hope you feel better soon!

Bruce, you really should switch from Tylenol to an ibuprophen (like Advil). Ibuprophen is not just a pain-reliever, it also shrinks inflammation, which I'm sure your arm is also suffering from. So, it will actually help with healing, not just masking pain.

Pain relievers like Tylenol have never worked for me.  I only use ibuprophen.

That is correct, DR Jrand64. Typically, once you are eligible for Medicare, you are ineligible to be covered through the exchange - at least, with any kind of discount or subsidy.

So you could be covered by both if you pay full price?

I tried to watch Letterman last night, but I'd taken my sleeping pill, which worked extra fast.

I got about ten minutes in, then the next thing I knew, James Condon's show was ending.

I was watching it and recording it on my DVR.  I set my DVR to end about 5 minutes after the regular time, but Letterman's show went a half hour longer than usual!  My DVR stopped recording and I'm glad I was up to instantly start it again.  I missed a moment between the two recordings, but I pretty much got the whole thing.

Well, DRs, this afternoon I had a very positive phone call about employment on something I believe I could be happily involved with.  While nothing's set and the call was an inquiry, I said I was interested, and it bodes well.

Tylenol has never worked for me, either. I've often wondered how it got to be the gold standard in hospitals. It's no safer than the others and, in my view, quite ineffective. I suspect Tylenol has had some great lobbyists.

Hi all, didn't realize I've been E and T.  I decided I needed a little time off, so I started my weekend at noon today.  I won't go back to work until Tuesday.  Baseball tonight, Friday night and Saturday night.  Yard work, work around the house and whatever I want to do.   It's a freedom Memorial Day long weekend for me.

I just got up after a three-hour nap. I'm glad I have this Dragon speak and spell system so that I can type this without actually being able to see anything. The surgery went well, but took about an hour and a half longer because they couldn't get my I dilate. I would have to get the surgery done on one of the brightest days of the year. Everything is still blurry. Plus I have to wear sunglasses in the house, but still I think I see a difference in my vision. Anyway A-OK.

Went back to bed - I'm so nauseous I'm not even paying attention to my arm.  So far I've avoided throwing up, but it's getting to the point where that may be the only option left.

Hope you feel better BK! I've had that as my only option left, as unpleasant as it is, it does usually make you feel better getting rid of the toxins.

BK, I think you need some ginger ale or 7-Up to sip occasionally.  I'm sorry this bad spell of health is taking advantage of your weakened system.  Your shoulder and arm have probably worn down your resistance,

That's a given.  they approached me about this job in Feb 2014, and it's taken 15 months to get an offer.
