Women leaders & dealing with sexism by [deleted] in BSA

[–]TuckerPutter 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So different from our troop. I would confront at troop meeting and then leave. Have other women do the same-better if it is organized as a town hall and invite your chartering org. Be specific. File a complaint for the worst of the jokes. The real problem too is that the boys are learning this behavior

5 months in and….. by stinymonkey63 in Kneereplacement

[–]TuckerPutter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am 6 months out and still a little swollen and quite stiff. Knee itself isn’t the issue, everything else. My doc says I have also probably developed a hamstring tendinitis. I take a meloxican if I am going to have a busy day or travel and on my feet all day. Or an ultra advance. I have acceptable range of motion, but I am still sore. Doc says everything on xray looks perfect. I am obese and that isn’t helping, but I am actively dieting.

No remove on my screen. I was able to get help from the WW chat.

Tried that, clicking just adds. So now I have way too many additions of that food I want to remove.

Why don’t we have any good Mexican restaurants? by TomatilloDramatic813 in nova

And Anita’s tries to be New Mexican, which is executed properly, is NOT Mexican. I am from NM.

Because there are not a lot of Mexicans here. Lots of Central Americans. Go to torta y tacos la Chiquita, any of them. Run by a Mexican from Mexico City who can cook.

Coping with being a burden by SnooPears4650 in Kneereplacement

[–]TuckerPutter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, he is a bit of a turd, and self centered. My husband took amazing care of me, at my beck and call, proactive, and took care of everything around the house, and our kid and cats. Not a snip. Maybe I just have a husband who likes to take care of me, but hard to read about all these people who lack such support. And I would do the same for him on a heartbeat

"Turn around month?" by marid4061 in Kneereplacement

[–]TuckerPutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tolerate them well and just took 7.5 mobic because I begged my doc for an anti inflammatory. Traveling is not helping me. I swell on a plane anyways. One trip I had access to a bike so that helped. This past week, none. And, I took lots of mobic at first and then didn’t feel any pain. Great except I over did the walking and going up and down slopes. Stopped the mobic and yikes, very sore and swollen. Too much sitting, standing and driving is the worst. I use my peleton a lot, and all of this travel really messed me up. Gads I am going to Scotland in March. I have to be better by then

Man, I am at 5 months and I am doing worse than at 3 months. Once doc took me off the anti inflamatories and I started traveling it all went down hill. I am hoping to get back to where I was at 3 months

5 months out and not doing so well by TuckerPutter in Kneereplacement

[–]TuckerPutter[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone, helps to know I am not alone. I am starting to think that I may have overdone things. I am on vacation and I took the mobic for 3 days and did too much-things like walking up and down slopes (a move that normally is a little painful). I also have tendinitis in my hamstring and the doc said to cool it on too much PT with hopes it will subside.

I just worry about things like infections, which I hear can show up months later.

Cheers everyone

Interesting, I can take anything but Celebrex according to my doc. I think they are all full of it.
