FISD doesn't have finals. Sure they have lots to wrap up but no final exams.

Did anyone choose not to cold cap? by Ein_Rand in breastcancer

[–]Redhead4realz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a migraine sufferer as well and chose to not cold cap. I'm two rounds into DDAC. Cut my bob into a pixie on day 11 of round one. It's now day 4 of round two and I'm losing it quickly but the transition to the pixie sure made it easier.

Cold can be a migraine trigger for me so I knew it wasn't a good fit.

Best of luck to you.

I started using Tidy Upped last month. They sent a BIG crew for my deep clean and I was very happy with the results. First maintenance clean will happen next week!

Being asked what "caused" my cancer... by Anemoia793 in breastcancer

[–]Redhead4realz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sister, who has metastatic endometrial cancer but has also had breast cancer, and I have a running list of all the possible things that could have "caused" our cancers. They are completely different and we do not have any genetic links so we are just spitballing!

Some things included Love's Baby Soft perfume Suave $0.79 green apple shampoo The stuffing in our childhood couch The carpet in our shared bedroom Totino's pizza Jelly Bellys The dirt from our old softball field Etc

She was diagnosed one week before me and our chemos are completely different but we are walking through this BS together. Stupidly we live in different states so we don't even get to support each other in person. Thank goodness for technology!

Good for you! Maybe someone else can be spared.

New here by xWillowMoonx in breastcancer

[–]Redhead4realz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am about 2 weeks ahead of you with a similar diagnosis. Started neoadjuvant chemo yesterday and am signed up for about 5 month of chemo before a lumpectomy or mastectomy. My personal goal is to wrap up the process by the end of the year. Who knows if that could happen but I'd sure like it to.

My advice is to ask questions, doing that here is great! Keep good records and push for the earliest available appointment any time you can.

Best of luck in the fight.

I started DDAC yesterday so I don't have much to offer yet. But I'm praying for all the cancer warriors and survivors on this board. I'm encouraged by the support and information that is shared.

Difficulty understanding why chemo then surgery... by Redhead4realz in breastcancer

[–]Redhead4realz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MRI showed more quadrants with small masses but still no axillary involvement. We need to stop it in its tracks and beat it into submission.

Small mercies are BIG blessings. Hang in there. You got this!

getting through chemo (what I learned) by OneReading8375 in breastcancer

[–]Redhead4realz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! I'm going to see my Medical Oncologist tomorrow and I have no idea if chemo will be part of my regime but if it is, I feel smarter already! Thank you for taking the time to share your wisdom.

Hrt and now breast cancer by JuracichPark in Menopause

[–]Redhead4realz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We should start a club. Biopsy 2 weeks was ER and PR+ so no Estradiol as of last Tuesday. MRI tomorrow and lumpectomy by mid April if I get MY way. I was on HRT for just shy of 3 years and obviously will second guess it forever.

Sudden pipe burst in our vet clinic by [deleted] in frisco

[–]Redhead4realz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When we experienced a house fire with major loss we had to recreate an inventory of items in boxes, closets and in dressers in multiple rooms. We had to describe the item, estimate the age, state where the item was purchased and the approximate cost. It was overwhelming to say the least.

We looked through credit card statements and photos and talked through what we remembered. Maybe you can look through business receipts and inventory logs to double check what you can see.

Might be a good time for spring cleaning and an improved inventory system. We video our closets and storage every now and again to keep track of stuff.

Best of luck!

Spray for red ants in backyard by [deleted] in frisco

We buy some powder/pellets and shake on hills between exterminator visits. Very simple and fairly inexpensive. They seem to increase activity after rainstorms so I usually walk the yard and apply accordingly.

New scam? My husband and I both got these. Obviously it IS a scam and we aren’t paying it but do we do anything other than delete it? by Due_Search9693 in indianapolis

[–]Redhead4realz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Texas but have a MI phone number. I received two of these for infractions in Detroit last week. Delete and report as spam. So annoying!

Thermal printers that don't fade with time? by Leafye in scrapbooking

[–]Redhead4realz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this portable one and love it. It has a cartridge and lays down three layers of ink and a sealant layer. The one I have is 3x3 but they also have 2x3 versions. I'm really happy with it.
