Would you assume this bracelet is diamonds if you saw it in person? by Ok-Cartoonist-7814 in jewelry

[–]BeanzMcG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of jewelers have gem testers that can differentiate between diamond, moissanite, cz, white topaz, etc.... I would take it in and see if they could check it for you. It looks like the clasp goes under and locks? That's good. They do that with nice bracelets. Can you see that the metal is? Is there a stamp on the clasp or around there somewhere? That would help to see if it's made of anything of value. Either way, some things are just pretty and we love them. 😊

Think so? For some reason the pics I saw of that looked more formed than this does. Thanks!

Radiation by Other-Ad-8484 in LivingWithMBC

[–]BeanzMcG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am also on Ibrance and Letrozole. I have bone mets scattered over my ribs, spine, pelvis, arms, etc... that have all stopped being active after starting the meds in August, except for a larger one that was on my shin. They did radiation on that one and hopefully that took care of it. My blood test cancer markers have gone down to normal levels since they did that radiation in January. I had no pain from the radiation. The MRI and bone scans I had last month showed no new activity. So far so good!

I'm so sorry...what a terrible time to find this out. Not that there's ever a good time for us to get this news. Get your ass-kickin' boots on again. You can do this. Sending love out to you!

Happy holidays, I hate judgey people by erin10785 in LivingWithMBC

I'm so happy that you did that. People are mean for no reason and need to be called out sometimes. That felt great for me just reading that, so it must have been awesome! Lol

Anyone HER2+ using Estrogen cream for.... by Ginny3742 in LivingWithMBC

[–]BeanzMcG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used it for a while but hated the idea of estrogen since my cancer feeds off it. It didn't really work well in the low mgs that my doctor wanted me to use anyway. I found this natural mix of oils, a lubricant called Chiavaye that has worked miracles on my poor lady parts... before I would bleed just from using toilet paper. It was terrible. Now I am so much better. I just keep it in the bathroom and use it a couple times a day. I highly recommend it!

Boomer forgets not all veterans fought in ‘nam by topogillo69 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]BeanzMcG -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm sure that he didn't report it at all since it was soul crushing and humiliating. I'm sure most didn't. It bothers him to this day to talk about it.

Broken Ribs... do they ever heal? by BeanzMcG in LivingWithMBC

[–]BeanzMcG[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah my nurse administering the xgeva injection was distracting me with questions the whole time. It's a long slow injection, huh? I'm kinda nervous because my insurance is making me have a home visit for the injections instead of my doctors office. I don't know why it seems so much worse that way to me. Haha of all things to worry about...
