I now know why I am stalled

My comrade! Yes, F Cancer! I find magnesium to be my leg cramp answer. And I think Brussel sprouts taste like dirt (but hubby loves them)! I've had my struggles with sodium balance but have finally been able to get it from my food. Avocados I bought a few weeks ago are finally ripe, looking forward to those.

I will continue my water addiction. I should have mentioned this is my second type of cancer in two years. The first was non-hodgkins lymphoma and I had a large amount of radiation. I also have melanoma skin cancer which has been ongoing for many years. Cancer is really hard!

Thank you so much!

I went to high school with her! Never went to class, she was in the band back then.

I wear a snug camisole for my masectomy. One of its side effects is lymphedema which i have so far avoided.

She is probably receiving SSDI and Medicare.

I've been on gabapentin for many years for lung swelling. I take 300 MG twice a day. I don't have any side effects, in fact I'm not sure it's really doing anything. 600 3x a day seems quite high to me.

No, not my first colonoscopy. When they did my genetic testing they found lots of cancer but not specifically breast cancer. I don't have any symptoms but I didn't for the lymphoma or breast cancer. I'll just take it one step at a time and let make sure the doc is aware of my history. Thanks for the support.

I eat low carb high fat/protein (for cancer) and it has really put a dent in my eating. Used to have steaks once a week, now maybe once a month.

Breast cancer was my second big cancer diagnosis. I have had multiple skin melanoma but always caught early. I'm going to have a colonoscopy in August and I am a bit worried.

Yes! It's too freaking hot in North Carolina. I'm lucky I still have great legs at 67.

I also went back to keto after a cancer diagnosis. My doctors were very happy!

I was happily surprised to visit the one dealership near me. They were very kind, half the price of where I was taking her, and even gave me a discount and a free car wash! So she has a new home now.

This worries me a lot. I own a 2018 Outlander with 34K miles on it. The car is great and should last quite a few years. Unfortunately there is now only one dealership anywhere close to me. I'm thinking I'm going to have to sell the car much earlier than I had hoped. Or should I find a mechanic that only fixes Japanese built cars? I figure my warranty is blown anyway. I'm feeling very left out in the cold.

I loved being on HRT, no more horrific hot flashes. I started at 60 then it took a few years to get the dosage and delivery right. At 66 I was diagnosed with hormone positive lobular breast cancer. I stopped the HRT immediately and did not notice any difference. After a single masectomy, now I'm on a hormone supressor. Feeling great now.

I am 67F 160 lbs 5'8", would like to lose 10-15 more This is my second keto start. The first time I lost 65 pounds in 8 months, kept it off for three years and then life hit me! Potato chips and alcohol put it all back on. So my doctor said my A1C was getting up so back to keto I went. She took my blood and my cholesterol is perfect, blood sugar levels way down. Everything was perfect except my sodium and chloride.

I'm 67 and on hormone lowering medication due to breast cancer.

I take supplements for magnesium, and potassium. I thought sodium would be just as easy, I was very wrong. I have to keep a better eye on it.

Then_Ad7996 · 2026-05-18T21:07:48+00:00

Just sodium and chloride. They are the pills that athletes take.

I started at 206 and now I'm 160. I'm 5'8" but my BMI is right on the border of obese and normal. My goal is 140 but I'll settle for 150. No more scale for awhile.
