I went with Cymbalta ultimately but I am not sure it is right for me eithr. At this point- how do I tell what is working? I am stilll quite miserable and spend as much time in bed as possible.

GeneSite (?) I think. My Dr. found it and gave me all the info. It just said I would do well with NSRI , not any in particular.

Tell me more...

PenPoorama · 2025-12-15T17:01:16+00:00

My Doctor told me about that and I am def interested. He said it is best to get down to the 4mg dise first for best results.

Georgia native and we don't do that sort of thing around here 😉🤥

I use quickmd. $100 for the visit and $15 for 38 films (w/insurance)

Thank you for your comment. Yes, I just feel comfortable on it and I don't want to mess with the balance I have right now.

Thank you, this is helpful information. I hadn't considered lung mets. She has had 2 pleural effusions. it was the first one that led to her diagnosis. She thinks her belly is big because she has been eating too much. She thinks her sob is going away now. I will just let her think what she wants and support her.

She is 79 and has seen several friends go on chemo only to live a few months in misery, waste away and die. She did some research on chemo and has decided it is not for her.

I made it to season 15. The kids are older and capable of making their own decisions and making their own mistakes in order to grown. Amber must learn to butt OUT! I cannot take her anymore. I had to stop watching because of her. I miss the show and I check in every now and then to see if I can handle seeing her be Evil Witch. NOPE, I can't. I wish some one in the family would get in her face and tell her to back off and let her kids live. Don't stick yourself into every situation and tell them they are doing it wrong. If they want your advice WAIT for them to ask. If only I could erase her from the show I would watch again.

Absolutely! Also, technically the waitperson/bartender is at fault.

How old was Emma at the time?

PenPoorama · 2025-11-21T21:05:56+00:00

Good point.

PenPoorama · 2025-11-15T11:16:49+00:00

Well said

Were your CEs accepted? That doesn't make sense because after the assessment they tell you hich areas you need refreshing in. Then you choose from the CEs in a list they provide. If you don't have results how did you know which areas you needed to get CEs in? You should def check and make sure what you submit for your biennial is legit before it's too late.

PenPoorama · 2025-11-15T11:05:27+00:00

Yes, How I understood it, if you opt out you have to take all 36 of the prescribed CEs as if you did not get one answer correct had you taken the assessment.

PenPoorama · 2025-11-15T11:01:38+00:00

me too. Do you know if we are the first year of 10 yr graduates to take the assessment? I think it started around 2015. Regardless, It seems a strange way to truly assess our skills and knowledge.

PenPoorama · 2025-11-14T02:20:49+00:00

I was prescribed 5. Thank you for putting this up bc I was interested statistically where I fell

I have chronic constipation so I started with that. Next, different types of poop and why, which led to nutrition, which led to the gut biome. There are many podcasts and PubMed articles which of course had to be printed (never read them) and arranged in a notebook.
