People (not OT)
Question:
Jennifer thank you very much for your kind words. It always saddens me to see new people on here but also know that they will find lots of really good information. (Jaguar is one of the prime examples of what we call SPAM) I am 60 years old and have had these beasts for about 50 years… My given name is Veronica… I remember the party lines and also remember being a telephone operator in the mid 1950’s….. :-) Ronnie aka RonMum — When One Candle Burns Out..Another Is Lit – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Thanks for the encouragement, Mr. Nelson. I have been a lurker for several days now. It sort of feels like listening in on the old "party" lines at times. You all seem to know each other and communicate so well, I have not had any questions NOT answered by one of you. (Does that sound right?) Sites to research, who to avoid, (does JAGUAR sound familiar?), drug therapy and everything in between, as well as humour and poetry….it is all here. My only contribution is to say, well done, very informative, great to have found you and I think I shall visit often! Jennifer P.S. ignore the email signature, he is just my dear hubby, I am and remain Jennifer

Hi Jennifer, & welcome out of lurkdom. I like the image of the old "party line" I’m old enough to actually remember those! We are varied … in age, talent, & a lot of other things. We have in common our migraines, though .. so stop by, pull up a chair & join the "party" – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – My only contribution is to say, well done, very informative, great to have found you and I think I shall visit often!

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Jen when I was 21 the dentist pulled out ALL my teeth thinking that would stop the migraines. So here I sit dentures in mouth and still migraines. Had a hyster at 38, left ovaries in went through change and no difference… well alittle and that is alot (if you know what I mean here) I still have the same amount of migraines per week but not the wall bangers in quite awhile. Are we having fun yet? :-) Ronnie When One Candle Burns Out..Another Is Lit
Are We having fun yet?? You bet!! Migraines, Restless Leg Syndrome, Insomnia…hubby with sleep apnea and snores like a fog horn….let me see what else in the line of FUN….oh yea, our car broke down again today, (the car is broken, it must be Firday). Should I go on with the litergy of all the fun I’m having in this life??? Ahhhh my friends…it’s a good life if you do not weaken. But to quote a movie friend of mine, Scarlett O’Hara….I’ll think about it tomorrow! Take care all, I’m so glad I found you For Now Jennifer I’m not Ted

Hi Caren…. I have told Bun (hubby) when I *go* I want a huge pair of pliers with me because I am going to hunt down my long gone dentist and yank out his teeth one by one. I had all of them taken out and imediates put in. I was 20 at the time.. I will line his imediates with lemon juice and salt…. :-) Ronnie When One Candle Burns Out..Another Is Lit
– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – I havent figured out how to snip yet, so bear with me. RonMum you are not the only one that has gone the route of having all your teeth pulled! I am 39, had migraines for 10 years now, and about 4 years ago, had 28 teeth pulled at once, because my dr said it might help! I was desperate and went ahead and had them pulled. Made no difference in the migraines, I still have them the same as before I had the teeth removed. Needless to say, I dont see the dr that suggested that anymore! Caren

Now I am not the only one mistaken for a man on the group! Red I cannot thank all of you enough for the welcome. As one who got her first migraine when I WAS pregnant and have had them escalate from once a month to two or three a week….I need all the help I can get. I even had a complete hysterectomy at 43! Figured if we could control my hormones instead of my malfunctioning ovaries we could perhaps stop the damn things. Did it work?? By God…no! They got worse. Now I am in forced menopause AND on HRT AND having hot flashes AND not sleeping…… as well as putting up with the HA’s. If I did not laugh at myself, I would cry. For Now Jennifer (I’m NOT Ted

Response:
My GOD!!! Pulled out all your teeth?? How barbaric. I think I’d find that SOB and pull all his/hers! I’m not sure if we’re having fun yet, I haven’t looked!

I like your way of thinking RonMum…salt…good idea! 
But it would be kinda hard for me to find the dr that suggested that I have my teeth pulled,,,,cause he got his license pulled!!!! Which is a good thing, so he cant suggest that to other migraine patients!! I have been reading here daily Kadee, just been kinda quiet, well actually very quiet. Sure do miss chatting with you, I still pick on shiela abut that "chair" I have found a dr that is treating my migraines and keeping me out of pain, yet I am waiting for the day he fires me as a patient too, as so many drs before him, because he just cant help me anymore. I hope that day never comes! Can someone with a webtv email me and tell me how to snip?? I really need to learn! I would appreciate it! Hope everyone is as painfree as possible! Caren

That is just about the wierdest advice I’ve heard, and I’ve heard some doozies. One doctor told me to get pregnant. I told him to eat a booger
Stina, Thanks for the giggle! I really needed it today. Red

Just how am I supposed to take care of a baby if I have a migraine everyday? And I can’t see a teething baby as being a great migraine aid. ha ha Stina * Sent from AltaVista http://www.altavista.com Where you can also find related Web Pages, Images, Audios, Videos, News, and Shopping.
