Cousin to have more surgery today

I have a cousin who's mid 40s. He's been a high-end IT person in the past, but without a degree he's being turned down a lot right now. He has some diabetic issues and can't do a job standing really, so he's wanting to possibly work from home. He's tried the Direct TV positions mentioned on this site before. Does anyone have any other suggestions for working at home?? I'm just not sure of too many companies doing customer service, ...

My cousin had his fingers fixed and didn't have to be under anesthesia so long. However, now we find that he has a fracture in back of his other leg. Don't know if it will have to be surgically repaired or not. His temperature was 99.7 so it is not elevated much if at all. I appreciate all of you praying for him. He is only 21 and has been through a whole lot anyway. He had a hair lip and cleft palate and had many, many surgeries on that. He is a very handsome boy now. ...

My cousin was hit by a train today (not in a car). He is 21. I am not sure of the exact story but he has a broken leg, arm and maybe internal injuries. This happened in my small town and they took him by helicopter to Ft. Wayne Lutheran Hospital. Anyway, I have not heard anymore about him. He is having some mental issues, but then he has ADHD or ADD, hyperactive, but not sure what else he has. My neighbor said she had talked to a person who had seen him nearly get hit by a car beca ...

Please pray for my cousin. She woke up at 2 a.m. and thought she had heartburn. Took one of her husband's pills but the pain never went away. They found a 4 cm aneurysm on the right side of her heart. Not quite sure what they meant by that, but they have taken her to a heart hospital in Indianapolis for further testing and care. She was having so much pain. They said she had not had a heart attack, so found the aneurysm on a CAT scan. I think she is late 40s or early 50s maybe, n ...

I doubt few will really care, but being from Kentucky, I just had to share! I'm sure others from KY here can relate to the "hillbilly" stereotypes we hear all the time. I'm just so proud that one of my "kinfolk" has a shot at a million:) It's on at 4:30 p.m. EST, WKRC (channel 12). ...

Okay, she does have a 4 cm aneurysm, but not on the aorta. They say that they can't do anything about it till it is larger. I did not know this until tonight. Her husband didn't tell me that, just the part about pollen causing the pain which I doubted. ...

If you are squeamish, please do NOT open the link. It's shows violent deaths. It's so sad what is happening in other countries when you're not the "proper" religion. Why is this not important to the rest of the world or even the U.N.? Obama mentioned Yemen but never Nigerian atrocities. I can only guess why. I also read the comments and that, too, is scary. I'm posting the caption and first paragraph of this article. Photo: KADUNA, Nigeria (AP) — ...

Please pray for my cousin and his family. I just found out today that he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. He is only 56 and he has 2 children in college. ...

Hospital is in Rhode Island. Scary stuff. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,571287,00.html?test=latestnews ...

I would like prayer for my husband and for myself. My husband needs a surgery to fix his vertebraes in his neck and we have been looing for a way to get it done. I have applied at the state and it is held up until and if they do select our name. I have been looking for a medical grant of some sort to get it paid. Also, I am going to start school in March,2010 for MEdical Transcriptionist, and I have received a pell grant but I need a way to pay my living costs while I go ...

I am just trying to get as much info as possible. Looks right now like it will be a RNY in India (insurance does not cover it, cost including air fair and all medical costs around $8,000 compared to 25-30,000 in the USA.) Has anyone here gone through it and how was the process? Was it open or lap? What was the recovery time? How have you adapted to the dietary changes afterwards? ...

If so, do you need readers for computer work? How soon did you return to transcribing? ...

How soon after cataract surgery did you return to transcription? What lens did you have implanted? I have beginnings of cataracts and am considering RLE (refractive lens exchange). Has anyone tried this? I am not a LASIK candidate because of dry eyes and large pupils. ...

I am having upcoming surgery and do not want to use what little bit of sick time I have (because then I'm in a pickle if I get the flu or something). I inquired if I could use a few vacation days and then have a few off unpaid if needed (because I often use vacation days for necessary things rather than something pleasant). I was told I could either go the FMLA route and will have to eat up any sick time I have or have to use all vacation time, which will wipe mine out. Do most ...

Found out today I need to have my gallbladder removed due to stones and irritation of the pancreas. Can someone who has had this surgery tell me how long they were off work? Thanks in advance! ...

Did anyone have surgery for de Quervain's tenosynovitis? I had one injection a year ago, which resolved the issue. However, a few months later the condition returned worse than ever. My surgeon said the procedure "usually" eliminates the problem, but scar tissue may form which would cause pain, and the need for an additional procedure. ...

I'm hoping someone on this board will have had, or know someone who has had, vein ablation therapy, also called EVLT and EVLA. It's done in the doctor's office under Versed twilight sedation and local numbing medicine in each incision on the leg. I have chronic venous insufficiency, which has, over the past year, taken a toll on my life. I have constant aching pain in both calves every waking moment. The pain even wakes me in up from sleep. Both ankle ...

Enough to say to the world that his colleagues are not owned by or subordinate to Trump. I don't have the stomach to call myself a pub after what they've done for 40 years, but he makes me proud anyway. Order, what a concept. Bet wanna be king Trump is furious. McCain has more balls than ANY of those who defend Trump's incompetent narcissistic words and actions ...

Has anyone out there had rotator cuff surgery? I am afraid that is what I am facing. I am having an MRI in a few days and then probably talking to a surgeon. It has gotten to the point that I can't handle the pain anymore when I "forget" and use that arm the wrong way. How long did it take you to get back to working?? I can't afford to be out 6 weeks as I have no disability insurance and basically as an MT living from paycheck to paycheck. I do have 2 wee ...

a 10-second right hemicolectomy? (dictated: October 2008 right hemicolectomy) ...

I've been a MT for about 30 yrs. I had to go on disability due to back pain, then had 2 back surgeries. Thank God the neurosurgeon did a GREAT job and I'm ready to go back to work, but I HAVE to get up at least once an hour to walk for like 15 minutes. What do I tell (if I do) a prospective employer that I have this problem? How do I do this? I've got to get back to work now! Thanks! ...

I decided to contact one of the managers where I had my cataract surgery about 4 weeks ago now as striving to see what other options might be open for me. Needless to say I do not have any desire to return to the original surgeon, not that he failed but with his flaring up about a perfectly innocent comment from me, will not trust him in going forward with any tweeking that might need to be done. I have an appointment to see the manager on Monday. I like to speak face to face with a person, not ...

So I went to the orthopedist in May, had xray of my shoulder. At that time it was popping quite a bit and hurting (hurting that is until I got to the office, but you know how that is). Bottom line, xray done, doctor studied for a minute (could see his scanning as he was directly outside the room pondering the radiograph). He said you can just watch and if it should become more painful then surgery. Ok so it got worse over these few months. Am trying to sit operation up, getting okay from PCP (to ...

Wish had never had nerve block to help with pain afterwards, now neck pain, etc. and just seeing if any others had this happen to them. ...

Hi Fellow MTs: I was wondering if anyone that has had their GB out has had any pain with the trocar sites that bothered them. I am 1 month out from GB surgery and it seems as though I have more pain in one of these sites than the others. It is a slight throbbing type pain and I have good days and bad days with some nausea, but not a lot. Luckily I have Phenergan for nausea. I know that some people have GB symptoms after surgery but it w ...

Anyone underwent PPH gun surgery for mucosal prolapse and hemorrhoids? I was operated on 14th June and it's over 2 weeks now and 70% of the symptoms are still there. What is the recovery period? Any experiences? ...

I am getting free healthcare right now (lost job). I have severe hallux valgus deformity with hammer toe #2 toe. It is obviously painful and I can't walk without pain and need to find a job. I am on unemployment now and this would be the perfect time to do the surgery so I have time to heal. Doctor said come back in four months. Is it because I am getting free healthcare? It's a program here in Cleveland at Metrohealth Medical Center that just started this summer. Just wondering ...
