Followup on my skin cancer

First I've heard of this, but I'm not surprised: http://www.newsmax.com/SciTech/fluorescent-bulbs-skin-cancer/2012/07/21/id/446116 ...

So on Sunday I talked to the two moms and let my friend know about what I heard the two girls say. I saw one of the girls on Monday and asked her about the boy who had thrown the punch. She said he was not on the bus, but was at school that day (any number of reasons he was not on the bus) and the regular bus driver did not drive on the way home. I didn't ask about whether or not her mom went into the school or reported it. Today I had to go to that school for orientation in an ...

A few months ago, I posted a request for prayer. One of the issues was a suspicious breast lump, which was recommended to be reimaged. After 3 appointments that had to be rescheduled because of snowstorms here in the Northeast, I had followup images, including ultrasound, and ultimately a core needle biopsy last Thursday. The radiologist called me yesterday to say the nodule was benign. What a relief! I just want to thank everyone who prayed. Those prayers meant so ...

I'm not done looking at different reactions to FY2012. This one came from the National Taxpayers Union. It makes you stop and think how many times over the years this style of termination/reduction has been put in place by all other Presidents. Despite some worthy attempts at spending restraint, President Obama’s latest budget plan relies more heavily on new revenues, rosy economic assumptions, and accounting shifts than many taxpayers would expect, according to a speci ...

Your post reminded me of what George Carlin once said - Nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care. The owners of this country do not want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well informed, well educated people. You have got to watch this video. George Carlin may have been a comedian, but he was also very right on about his views of what is going on in politics and "the club" (the one that you and I don't belong to) and beat ...

Well, we're all pretty much feeling the economic squeeze and I'very decided I need to find a more economical line of skin care products (I have sensitive skin and have been using Cetaphil cleanser with creme de la mer toner and the creme de la mer moisturizing cream for ages). I don't know if its because my skin is just supersensitive or so used to these high-end toners and moisturizers that they just go haywire when I try something new and more economic. I'd bee ...

For some reason my feet and hands have all the sudden become very dry, to the point of peeling and cracking. My right foot is the worst and hurts. I've tried every cream I can think of and have been drinking more water. Any suggestions? It looks so nasty. ...

I've never had this before, but on my forehead and spreading to a small part of my cheek, near my mouth and on one side of my nose I've developed seborrheic keratosis. My PCP told me to use a very mild cleanser and hydrocortisone cream x3 daily, but it really doesn't seem to be helping much. The spots get warm to the touch and itchy and are really getting more and more difficult to cover when I have to go out. Has anyone else had this and found something a bit more he ...

so this morning i exfoliated my face as per my usual routine, but now my face feels so irritated and itchy. i'm not sure if it is from the exfoliant or what but i'm really uncomfortable here. I took an antihistamine thinking that may help if it wasnt because of the product, but it doesnt seem to have helped. I've been drinking lots of water too. To make me more anxious, i've got a presentation tonight in front of like a 100 ppl, and i don't want to go up there looking li ...

Mine is "fact of the matter". It was one my mother in law said constantly while complaining about something. Always following the phrase would be an opinion, not a fact. What are your pet peeves? ...

Have a skin tag located on my neck. It was red and inflammed looking for the last couple of weeks. This a.m. it has turned white and is just hanging on by a thin thread. Collar of my shirt(s) keep rubbing against it. Friend told me to pull it off. I don't think I can do that. Put a band-aid over it. Hesitant to pull it off as I am a diabetic. Don't have an extra money to go to a doctor. Anybody else have tihs experi ...

I was complaining to my doc about fine lines, crow's feet/smiles lines, and the beginnings of those "marionette" lines (nasolabial fold area) and was inquiring about botox or a filler. He told me I wasn't ready for that yet and instead prescribed Retin A gel. He said faithful use of this, starting judiciously and then increasing, would provide visible reduction in about 8-12 weeks. I've heard that Retin A (even the microgel) can be really harsh on the skin ...

I have hypothyroidism, but not taking any medications. Part of my problem is my face and skin. Under my eyes is always flaky (like psoriasis) and I've got pimples that are breaking out all over my face, but they are not like the pimples of my youth (without getting gross about how I used to get rid of them), now when I try to pop them nothing happens and they get bigger and redder and they hurt. The skin on my face is normal but my forehead is normal to oily and the areas ...

If any of you have problems with brittle hair and dry skin, try a shower filter. The water in your shower is filled with chemicals, minerals, and the same or more amount of chlorine as swimming pool water. I just purchased an Aquasana shower filter. In less than 1 week, I have noticed a tremendous difference in the softness of my hair and skin. It is like showering in pure spring water. There is no way I would ever go back to using plain shower water again! ...

I have older (40) skin that is acne prone. I'm looking for a skin product that doesn't over dry as acne products can sometimes do because my skin is older and now wrinkle prone too. I use neutrogena moisturizer, aveeno dry skin oatmeal bar, and retin A. I only wear foundation maybe once or twice a week (neutrogena). I know it's the products that are causing me to break out because I used to use Rhonda Allison and didn't break out, my skin looked great, however, Rhonda All ...

Anyone got good skin rash remedies? I've had a rash on my left forearm for several YEARS.... it waxes and wanes, but is always dry and plaque-like. Very similar to psoriasis, but my arthritis is osteo, not inflammatory, so I'm pretty sure it's just some form of eczema. It's sometimes dry and scaly, sometimes weepy (especially when I scratch too much) and has become scarred as a result. I've tried everything: Cortisone creams, dry skin creams, ant ...

I consider this my MT community. I feel we have a sense of sisterhood here. Renal cell carcinoma. What I thought was bouts of kidney stones for the last year has been a massive tumor growing on my left kidney. CT scan reveals a left lower pole renal mass measuring 10 x 7 cm. I am scheduled for left nephrectomy on Friday, but hopefully sooner. Knowing this thing is growing inside me is horrible. I am handling it very calmly, which is surprising even to m ...

I have just found out this past week that I have cancer. The primary is unknown at this time but there are mets to the liver. I will have a liver biopsy on Tuesday. I ask for prayers for my family that they will be able to handle whatever is in store. I believe in prayer and I would appreciate any that are said for us. Thank you and God bless. ...

I just had an ultrasound and a biopsy the other day for postmenopausal bleeding. The doctor said he had to test for cancer of course. I found out by many sources that cancer cannot live in your body if your pH balance is over 7.1. So I thought I would share some of this with you. Cancer cannot survive in an alkaline body, which is pH over 7.1. Keep your pH balance over 7.1 by eating these alkaline foods. Of course, the ultimate goal is balance. Eating too many alkalizing foods can lead to its ...

Ok, this is weird. Never had this feeling before, but I am getting up in years, so maybe it is just old age taking it toll. I am sitting in my living room, lights off, 3 fans going. We are in the middle of a heat-wave. Over 90 degrees outside, heat index over 100, humidity unbelievable. I live in an old house with old wiring. We tried window air conditioners, but could only use 1 at a time and only for a certain number of hours before it started blowing fus ...

He is unbelievable. His own kind (Democrats) are catching on. It's too bad he's had a free pass for over 5 years. The media should have confronted him head on. Can you imagine what he must be like when he goes home at night? link ...

I did not plan on being awake at 5 something this morning but so itchy. I have had eczema on my hands before and now my breasts are broken out, both breasts and just wanted to know if any had ideas for something around the house I could use to ease that itchy feeling. ...

Please pray for my friend Gina, who is in her early 50s and has inoperable lung cancer metastasized to the bone. She has decided against treatment so she can have a good quality of life in her remaining days. ...

wow. what a journey i have undergone. on tuesday, 10/11/11, i underwnt my left radical nephrectomy at the university of michigan. the incision went through four layers of muscle groups in my back/flank. 28 staples. i have a new lease on life. thank you all for your kind words and prayers. i have emerged a better woman. seven hours on the OR table, agony of excruciating pain beyond description, pain pills and sleep for days on end --- and it is now all ...

I looking for a new skin care regimen. I'm 44 and have a round, chubby face which I used to hate, but now realize it has prevented me from getting a lot of wrinkles. I have a few fine lines around my eyes and those parentheses around my mouth, if you know what I mean. I'm looking for something to prevent future wrinkles and to work on what I have. I have freckles and have sun damaged my skin when I was younger, so my skin is blotchy without makeup. I ...

Right now I am really loving Renpure's hair products. I've been using their shampoo and conditioner (and have gotten 3 compliments on the health of my hair), but only just recently tried their Argan oil treatment. LOVE. As far as daily defrizzer: I've long been a fan of Paul Mitchell's (smells ever so slightly of green apple), but after many years my bottle finally ran out. I'd seen a promo of Bumble and Bumble's defrizz tx in Oprah� ...

In an e-mail from child's 1st teacher, there is a notation that October 15th is wear pink day in honor of the Komen foundation. While I think it is wrong to over-shelter kids, I also have to wonder in this case if this would be going perhaps too far. It is nothing I will raise a stink over, my son will not be wearing pink as he does not have anything pink but I am just kind of baffled by this. ...

I've heard pros and cons about it. I am 63 with a very strong family history of cancer and the older I get the more family members are getting colon, prostate, kidney cancer, etc. I'm wondering if I should be proactive and get it now. Any thoughts on anyone who has used it? Thanks ...

I just felt the need to post on here and ask for prayers or good karma or whatevery it may be that you believe in to be sent her way...she's the mother of 2 teenage kids, she's barely 40 and her life is at its end. I'm so sad about this I can't stand it. Please, prayers, good karma, good energy, whatever you believe in, please send it this family's way...she's in hospice now inhouse, her time is very limited... ...
