Anybody home? I tried my best to get a chuckle out of you guys. Typos can be hilarious like in munchkin's post about the mothwash. Anybody have a good one?
Your post bombed on me, sorry. I actually thought maybe your meds got the better of you.

You know, so many things don't translate to the internet as well as we sometimes hope. I'm glad to know you are ok though!

. I haven't been taking my meds because they throw me off so much. My doctors have been yelling at me but I like being normal rather than out to lunch. I'm going to have to start taking them again because I'm starting to have problems. I hope that I didn't mess my heart up too much by taking a break. It's weird how drugs that make you feel so bad can actually be helping you.
I know what you mean. I have multiple chronic illnesses that require drugs. Every time one is changed or I am prescribed a new one I tend to 'feel' different. I've been on them for so long I don't even remember what feeling like 'normal' is any more. I, too, often complain to my doctor that I 'feel off' or have bad days but they tell me the alternative would be worse. Sometimes I'm not so sure. I had an acquaintance when I lived in PA tell me that a doctor once told him that for every 'good' thing a drug does it also does two or more 'bad/not so good' things. I fully believe this and figure there may come a time where I decide to give up taking the drugs. Until then, I take them as prescribed/directed as there may be worse consequences going on and off of them for short periods of time. Just my two cents. Take care.

I have to take blood thinners to keep my stent open. The consequence of not taking them is another heart attack. I wasn't buying it since the drugs were making me much worse. I was in constant pain and had daily fainting spells. Then they put in the stent and my shortness of breath got much worse. I couldn't handle it anymore which is why I stopped taking everything. I was feeling better up until this weekend. Now I'm not feeling so great. I was in Vons last night and one of my items in my cart was all red and I'm like what is going on and then I saw my finger and it was pouring out blood. I have first aid stuff in my car so I went out and cleaned it up. It was just a little scratch but it was bleeding like a gunshot wound. Blood thinners just suck. I have bruises all over my arms. I don't even have to touch anything to get a bruise. I just look at something and I'll get one. I think that they're all going to scar. My arms are always tan so maybe it won't look so bad but it sure does now. There are a bunch of red patches all over me. It's not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things but still. I hate looking at them.
Maybe a dumb question since your posts have mentioned going to doctors, but when taking your blood thinners, have you been tested to see that your blood is not being thinned too much? Our son takes blood thinners due to having a pulmonary embolism (several years ago which landed him in the hospital for over a week) and he doesn't have any of the problems you are having (except for a cut will bleed a bit more and sometimes take longer to stop). If this is not being tested, I would suggest it be done as the dosage may need to be changed.

My experience is that a lot of older people don't like wearing adult underwear and will object no matter what the quality is like. It's something to keep in mind if you're buying them for someone else and aren't sure if it's something that they'll want.
EEK!But if they wear KIDS underwear they will be way too tight. LMAO OK, I know you actually meant adult diapers, but I couldn't resist goofing around.Hide

I'm not sure where on this site to post such a question, but this has to do with shoe sales at Nordstrom Rack. Has anyone had experience with this site/store?

I got some boots from them. A reasonable deal, but then the price was reduced by 40%. They don't do adjustments but you can return to the store and buy another pair at the reduced price. So I did that. I got 2 pairs the second time for around what I paid for the first. Then I decided that I liked one of them so much I wanted to get another, but the price had gone back up to the first level, the 40% off deal went away.

Is there any likelihood that the 40% off will return? Or did I miss the window? It's unlikely I'll get another pair at the higher price. If this isn't the place to post such questions, can someone direct me to the right area? I couldn't find one that dealt with dept. stores.
TIA

Was the 40% a Presidents Day sale? Are the boots clearance items?
All I know is that about once a month or a little less often they have the Clear The Racks sale, where clearance items are an additional 25% off or maybe 40%. Are there a lot of these boots left? If you're not going to buy them without the additional percent off, then you might as well keep checking to see if there is another deal.

Thanks. The color I'd most like is still in stock, but the price went back up. So maybe it was a PDay sale? And yes, all clearance items. I'll just keep checking back. I've been wearing one pair all morning and they're comfortable and well made, so at this price, it's worth getting a few pairs since, in my experience, it's hard to find comfortable attractive shoes and when you wear them out you always regret not having bought another pair. I'll have to check on the Clear the Racks sales.
