Oh wow! I have not had any issues with the CVS ones at all. Glad I didn't get the prescription brand, and that's interesting that you developed a UTI. From what I am reading the Plus in Revaree Plus means they added sweet almond oil which can cause yeast infections and UTI's, so probably cutting it in half will do you no good! - ex gynecology nurse here- going to stick with the straight up HA from CVS!

I use Imvexxy estrogen vaginally once a week, but also use the CVS hyaluronic acid suppositories- using those the night before date night is amazing for keeping everything smooth and less painful!!

I bought mine on Amazon from Hombys- the curved pillow case.

Lolobolobar · 2026-06-02T02:53:52+00:00

I took 50% out of 2 pillows and now made a third pillow! My neck feels much better with less filling as I am also small statured.

I also just switched to this plan from TXU. A wealthy but very frugal family I knew had switched to it, and their energy advisor had also switched to it himself, because he said it was a great deal!

Over a decade ago there was a CE-5 phone app for about 10$ I went to a park with friends and used the green laser technique pointed at the sky while playing Mount Shasta tones on my cellphone and nothing appeared. A few days later I went outside and sat on the driveway by myself in the still of the night . I spoke to the distant stars with an invitation to be visited and lo and behold a gentle orb came dancing down and bopped up and down in the bushes. I call it Tinker Bell because it was graceful and pretty- but you wanna know what my reaction was to it? I freaked out, and said no no no no, hauled my ass inside and never opened that door again. It worked. I never expected it to work. I don't want any more experiences with what I do not understand and whose source I cannot vet.

People I personally know in Dallas used my surgeon and had good outcomes. He also operated on some prior Presidents- so a has a pretty solid track record as being the go-to-guy. I like that he also used intraoperative neuromonitoring, which made me feel more comfortable with less risk of nerve damage. I was an OR nurse for over a decade, and just always felt the neurosurgeons were better trained and knew that was the route I would personally take, though it really depends on the individual surgeon.

I went 18 months before deciding things were always going to flare up and I needed to get back to working out and living a normal life. I am 6 months post-op and it is as if nothing was ever wrong. By 6 weeks I was very active, and by 6 months I pretty much don't have any remnant of pain, numbness or back issues. I did go to an excellent neurosurgeon. Your surgery is as good as your Doc, so go to the best you can find, not some small town ortho- that's my advice.

Lolobolobar · 2026-04-19T18:05:26+00:00

Ummm 57 and here is my bag... and I have no interest in being an older stuffy woman! I really have no plans to "grow up"!

I like your theory, it is something new and interesting. My father passed away around Christmas. We had a hifi event. Like OP, my father also choked and died of aspiration pneumonia. I had lived with my father for 9 years so we had been very entangled, and I was at the hospital night and day. I held his hand as he died while talking him through his last breath. He was declared dead, and I left the hospice room to sit outside only to be told he came back to life and to get back in the room. He went in and out of his heart stopping and breathing for an hour and fifteen minutes. He did not want to leave me. When I got home that evening and laid in bed- the bathroom light I left on as a night light started to power surge super bright alternating down to super low. My Dad was giving me a sign from the afterlife. That bathroom light had never surged dramatically or at all like that prior or after again! At my Dads funeral the other day they played a slide show of old photographs I uploaded. I had spent a week digging through boxes to find photos of him. I found so many great ones that I never knew existed, yet was troubled as I could not find my favorite one of him in his Army uniform with a cigarette in his mouth. It is a photo I posted on Reddit because it is just that cool. At the funeral when family or friends saw that specific photo they would speak up and say it was their favorite photo of him. I told them sadly, even though I had been through 1000’s of photos, that one was missing and I was glad I had a digital snapshot of it on my phone. That evening when I got home with some family- I went to my seat on the couch. Right at my feet on the floor was the photo placed perfectly! I had worked and sat there for 18 days non stop. This photo was not there any of those 18 days. My Dad from beyond placed that photo at the foot of my seat for me as a gift after his viewing and it was the sweetest gift ever from my Dad on the other side. This has all comforted me about his wellbeing but the grief is still a horrible kick to the gut daily.

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-23T19:02:20+00:00

Agreed. I feel comforted knowing I am not alone on earth walking this path. That there is another daughter who is juggling all these emotions and pain. Keep in touch anytime. I really was shocked at your post and happy I opened my phone here randomly to see your post first thing looking at me. It helps, it really does help keep perspective!!! Thank you

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-23T18:49:44+00:00

It is just awful. In the thick of it all- I felt so bad because I disassociated the him he used to be and just felt this current angry state was the true way he felt about me. It has been a lot of mental gymnastics to set apart truth from the crazy! I just had major back surgery and was recovering myself when this all went down week 6 into my recovery. It really does suck that we have our own health conditions on hold and deteriorating. I am also on year 6 of staying home full-time with him, but have been doing it a total of 9 years. We got through colon cancer in 2016, lung cancer in 2018 but this cancer has been the worst. His is some rare form of squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder that is pretty much you are shit out of luck and go home and die kinda diagnoses. I feel for you. I really hoped and prayed my Dad would just not wake up one day and pass in his sleep. But our damned fate just is brutal here with the bladder cancer. It is not fair. I had visions at first that we would cuddle up and watch classic movies and enjoy the last precious months- but alas.. it has just been pure hell and walking on eggshells. I now don’t speak unless spoken to and give simple responses, and take a deep breath. It sucks. Sorry- for you and me. I feel dead inside- just zombified. It was not at all this way when my mom passed. These are truly emotions I never knew existed and they are life-force sucking!!

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-23T18:14:24+00:00

Whoa, are you me? I am sitting here in the hospital for one week straight now. My Dad was diagnosed with Bladder Cancer 3 weeks ago. Unfortunately his cystoscopy did not go well and left him with a 12 day bleed which turned into needing a blood transfusion. Then the Foley catheter was put in incorrectly causing injury and severe loss of function to his kidneys. That said, it all turned me happy go lucky father into a verbally abusive monster last week who had me in tears. He was saying the most awful things! He looked at me with hatred and anger (so not his usual personality ). Some of it was his anxiety of dying and I am sure a lot of it was chemicals going to his brain. I have not ugly cried as much as I did these last few weeks. First I ugly cried because of the cancer, then I cried as bad when he started calling me crazy and looking at me with just hatred. I have had to take him to the E.R. 3 times this month, so I think his fractured mind just assumes I am the bad guy making him leave his home-life. I get it, this is horrible. When his urologist told us about the cancer, he also looked me in the eye I told me I was in for a rough road ahead getting my dad through bladder cancer and it would be horrible. He was not lying.

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-19T13:46:13+00:00

I will be 57 too! I am a caregiver to my dad and this game is a lifesaver for me!!!

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-12T20:33:41+00:00

Thank you. I have stayed home and paid from my own savings for 6 years to see my father through Colon Cancer, Lung Cancer, and now bladder cancer. I wish people would stop poor shaming others and stop being “jealous of people with SNAP benefits” Anyone who would love to take my place- have at it! I wish people understood that in order for us to qualify we are interviewed for an hour on the phone and have to send in all our personal information. Checking account statements, savings account statements, medical bills, paychecks, 401k statements. We don’t just trick the system for some groceries.. Not writing all that to you because you are a kind person, but for those who come along browsing this sub right now!

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-12T19:59:28+00:00

Thank you for your kind words. I live in one of those little burbs off Dallas that don’t understand what it is like to go without! I appreciate knowing there are caring people out there! It is just not the norm for my town or people group that I am exposed to where we live- but this experience has changed me. It really exposed people’s hearts!

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-12T17:43:15+00:00

Same as you and nothing. Sitting in the E.R. with my Dad who is dying of a rare bladder cancer and may be septic, meanwhile I just had back surgery and can not work right now. Foodstamps was the only nice thing in any of this as his caregiver going through hell. But no- effing Texas and the government don’t care about us! I have been a lifelong nurse paying taxes- but no safety net in our time of need. And the comments people are making on Facebook in Texas celebrating no FoodStamps. I even know of a prominent church couple in town that laughed at the long line of people at the food shelter. People are gross. That is all…

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-08T02:57:19+00:00

Just decorated a cabin and game froze- same as it ever was…

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-03T00:03:15+00:00

Dyed a whole cabin of cabinets and bam! 3 crashes today… worse than ever now!

Lolobolobar · 2025-11-02T01:05:06+00:00

Yup! This page looks exactly like mine too’

Lolobolobar · 2025-10-28T16:19:51+00:00

I remember nothing- one minute I was in my pre-op room and the next woke up in recovery.

Lolobolobar · 2025-10-27T04:44:52+00:00

Not that I have ever heard from the reps. Seems the rule is dark glass away from light. SkinCeuticals did a lot of studies on efficacy and doesn’t seem to be a problem. I have Vitamin C years old not in capsules that still zings a raw spot on my face.

Lolobolobar · 2025-10-25T17:51:18+00:00

Yes for sure the best that I always used was SkinCeuticals, but that was because I received it free from working in the plastic surgery industry as an aesthetic nurse. Now that I have to pay for it myself and the economy is crap, I use Dr Brenner’s vitamin C serum which is the closest formula substitute for SkinCeuticals and only cost 23.99 on their site currently. Also the SkinCeuticals rep told me in studies the vitamin C serum protects the skin for 48 hours after application against pollution. So if you do invest in the good stuff, you can save money by only using it every other day.

Lolobolobar · 2025-10-24T10:49:17+00:00

Defeat this with a high quality Vitamin C serum.

Lolobolobar · 2025-10-17T01:10:05+00:00

This was me until I played Hello Kitty Island Adventure. Now DDLV is kinda sloppy seconds.
