2:00 am

grannyrose

cooee and g'day from me. {{{{spritey}}}}} {{peach}}

2:00 am

gapeach

Hey there, rose.

2:00 am

sprite

that is good to hear. Though OK is not great, so *hugs* and may you feel great(er) soon.
I am good. We just found buyers for our house, now looking for a place to temporally live where we can build our tiny house. Exciting times!

2:01 am

sprite

rooooooseeeee cooooooeeeee finally! *hugs* sweetie. How are you today? How did Thom's place go?

2:01 am

gapeach

Oh, good for you, sprite. I'm glad things are going well.

2:01 am

Kamanjah

That's good news, Sprite!! New adventures await!

2:01 am

gapeach

Must find food....

2:03 am

sprite

*hugs Kam* Good evening, dear one! How have you and Michael been doing?

2:03 am

grannyrose

it went sooo well. a new lady came today. she announced "i don't like tomato soup " i said please just try it.. loll she had three bowlfuls. me... thinking i may go in sooner rather than later for my infusions.

2:03 am

grannyrose

{{{{kam}}}}}

2:04 am

Kamanjah

{{{sprite}}} {{{rose}}}

2:04 am

sprite

hmzzz sweetie... you going in sooner means you are in pain. *holds rose in warm hug*
Great that lunch went so terrific again. And yay for your tomato soup!

2:04 am

Kamanjah

We finally made it up the hill yesterday, but the winds from the weekend had blown most of the leaves off of the aspens. We did see some pretty sights though.

2:05 am

sprite

sorry about you missing out on the splendour of the aspens, Kam, but glad you enjoyed the sights anyway.

2:06 am

Kamanjah

Gads, I wish there wasn't a war on pain relief here...I am so sore today from being in the car on mountain roads - and the dog doesn't realize he's on a leash until he takes off running...then he calms down, but I still get sore (er)

2:07 am

Kamanjah

We saw a few in sheltered areas...I feel badly that I was too sick to go two weeks ago...but I know he had fun

2:07 am

sprite

anything we can do to help, Kam? What do you need to battle your pain?

2:10 am

Kamanjah

Don't know, Sprite, wish I had a solution. As of January, Medicare won't even cover my decreased amount of pain meds - I can't get relief from what they'll allow, and the pharmacies are just a total pain - I get to fight with them tomorrow again for my refill. It takes them at least two days...but I complained to the state in Oct, so maybe they will actually fill on due date...fingers crossed.

2:10 am

sprite

Kam, sweetie, your health is more important. I am glad you took the time to recover from the flu, it was a bad one.

2:11 am

Kamanjah

Gads, I'm so glad I feel better! I was down for a good 4 weeks, which sucked. Starting to catch up on laundry and stuff, yay!

2:11 am

sprite

which painkillers work for you?

2:11 am

sprite

Rose, how is Don doing? Still going strong on pulling his weight?

2:12 am

grannyrose

little steps kam. i am now goal-setting. if i achieve more that's a bonus. if i reach my goals, and don't feel terrific, i just sit down for the rest of the day.

2:13 am

Kamanjah

The ones I use - at the dose I used to use. I can function. But I'm down a lot because of the gov't. I see doc again in 3 weeks, and am going to ask to go back to what I had before, don't know if he'll ok it or not, doubt it

2:14 am

sprite

which meds are that? If you want to tell, that is?

2:15 am

Kamanjah

Will email

2:15 am

sprite

I love it, rose. That is such a great way to go about it.

2:15 am

sprite

okay.

2:16 am

Kamanjah

That's what I do too, Rose. Extra chores getting done are always a bonus!

2:16 am

grannyrose

sure is sprite. but he can't help me at 3am when i am lying in the dark staring at the ceiling. i feel burning hot, then after throwing the covers off, i begin to feel freezing cold. that's why i think i need to go in soon.

2:16 am

sprite

am starting to see what flosey meant. Not an easy grid today.

2:17 am

sprite

am glad, rose. And I hear ya... it can be a lonely place in the middle of the night. Did you call drJ today? Or will you call on Monday first thing? :)

2:18 am

grannyrose

i have to admit, after my first run through i still had nearly 80 to find.. the words are very twisty.

2:18 am

sprite

that is a lot better than I am doing. Am slowing down before hitting halfway.

2:19 am

grannyrose

oh i already have an appointment but not for nearly 2 weeks. that one is to discuss my right knee nerve.

2:20 am

sprite

yeah I know, but you need to plan your next infusion.

2:29 am

grannyrose

sorry... Ms Lasix and Mr Senna both decided to yell at the same time...

2:29 am

sprite

how do you spell someone taking care of herds of sheep?

2:29 am

sprite

who are they?

2:29 am

grannyrose

shepherd

2:30 am

grannyrose

lasix = fluid, senna = number twos

2:30 am

sprite

ah. That extra H. Thanks hun.

2:31 am

sprite

ohhhhh LOL! New one for me. So now you are 2 kg lighter at least :D

2:31 am

grannyrose

yup....

2:31 am

sprite

phantom: shepherd, lool. And omelet.

2:32 am

grannyrose

oh, ikr ? i stared and stared trying to make omelet

2:34 am

sprite

it is so very very very almost there. A super phantom so to speak

2:40 am

grannyrose

sprite ?? what did you think of my suggestion re an on-site caravan pro te4?

2:42 am

sprite

oh sweetie, no worries. The tent would only be for the time between moving out of our house and buying the caravan. Just a few days. And don't forget, we are experienced and well-equipped campers. We even have a stove for in the tipi, which warms it up to blissful temperatures.

2:43 am

grannyrose

oh, then that's all good then. i am pleased...

2:44 am

sprite

:D

2:45 am

Kamanjah

Michael is ready to order his tipi in spring so we can spend time "up the hill." He's been talking about it a lot!

2:45 am

grannyrose

how lovely kam, that he is now well enough to make plans like that..

2:46 am

sprite

wow Kam, that is great news! He must really be feeling a lot better.

2:47 am

Kamanjah

He is doing so well that people who have known him for years comment on how well he looks! The DBS is slowly but surely improving his PD symptoms.

2:48 am

grannyrose

lol.... or what sprite said..

2:48 am

Kamanjah

He gets "word salad" though. Some days I can't understand a thing that comes out of his mouth, lol!

2:48 am

sprite

*sends up a huge bunch of gratitude to the Big Guy*

2:49 am

sprite

ah well, Kam, if that is the price, I am sure you will pay it gladly. Let's face it, our guys often do not make sense anyway ;)

2:50 am

Kamanjah

I think his brain is just moving faster than his mouth can process his thoughts, so it all comes out in a jumble when he gets excited.

2:50 am

Kamanjah

hahaha, sprite! true - they think differently

2:50 am

sprite

*hands Kam a bottle of dictionary dressing to go with the word salad*

2:51 am

Kamanjah

lol!

2:52 am

grannyrose

don't forget the glass of chardy to wash it done...lolll

3:03 am

sprite

*brings out the melba toast for the cheese*

3:04 am

sprite

I am over halfway. Quite a tough delivery today

3:04 am

Kamanjah

Brings out the gluten free crackers...I'm so boring, and so tired of not being able to eat bread!

3:04 am

Kamanjah

Yeah, this is a toughy. I have 23 left, and need to go to bed. Soon!

3:04 am

sprite

you are NEVER boring, Kam. But I understand you getting tired of that.

3:06 am

sprite

ughhhhhh phantom: paradise! How positively criminal.

3:09 am

Kamanjah

I get so jealous when I smell sourdough toast! And Michael has been bringing a variety of breads home lately - whatever is on sale and isn't junk...some of it smells SO good - I actually ate a few bites a couple of months ago...and paid dearly. It's just so tempting, and I know I'll forget the last time eventually...and do it again, haha

3:10 am

sprite

it is tough. Not many things smell as good as freshly baked bread.

3:11 am

grannyrose

kam, did you see the news that australian scientists have developed a vaccine to help people with gluten intolerance.

3:11 am

Kamanjah

no, will have to look it up

3:12 am

Kamanjah

vaccines scare me - I don't trust the unknowns in them

3:12 am

grannyrose

it's so exciting. coeliacs will be able to eat ANYTHING they like.

3:13 am

Kamanjah

Dad would love that! He has made himself so sick eating pie that he ended up in the hospital from dehydration. He loves pie!

3:18 am

sprite

you know it is a bad grid when you have ra7/32 and no paradise

3:19 am

3:26 am

grannyrose

Not doing much today, still under the weather. Fixing my nails, I think, writing a story for the heart academy later this month, maybe a bit of painting.

3:42 am

3:42 am

Nef

Hi Kate. I've been sick with a cold this past week; and I hear your computer has been "sick" too

9:58 pm

TraderKate

Sorry to hear you are under the weather Nef...I hope you are on the upswing now - 'tis the season - the change and damp seems to bring out the *bugs*

9:59 pm

Nef

I keep thinking I'm better; especially since I "shared" this with DH; but we're both still sick.

10:02 pm

hurshy

ooh, what a nice pr7

10:02 pm

TraderKate

Yes, landlord bought a new router or something - designed to boost the signal from his source... AND h e bought a huge long ethernet cable so I would be hardwiredm rahter than on wifi (wich was always dpooty).. well... the cable seemed ine for about 3 weeks then it wasdn't... it's been mostly off for the last 6 days... I am back on the wifi now... no idea what is wrong with the cable that worked ofne for 3 weeks then poofed... I asked him to take the (route?) back - itmust still be under warranty.... but no.... Ive never seen a man so tight with a nickel and so willing to not get what he paid for... :(

10:02 pm

Nef

As they say; colds usually last a week to ten days; this has been 8 days now, so I should get better this weekend. (right?) ;-)

10:03 pm

TraderKate

Oh... if poor DH has it, you are doome Nef!
<windk and smirk> hope you both recove quickly!

Oh, Man, Kate; that would be a pain!

I still need 190 words; far too many to clue, Kate.

10:07 pm

Nef

I do hope your internet problems are fixed soon.

10:07 pm

TraderKate

Yes Nef,, a royal pain... he has no clue what is wrong - but refuses to have anyone touch his computer, so there's no way he'll even bring in the router thingy to have it checked.../ he makes me crazy sometimes :/

10:08 pm

Nef

And you don't have a friend who can see the problem I suppose...

10:08 pm

TraderKate

well, not much time to go, I can toss ot some of the longer or weirder ones... pretty sure there are some lurkerz that would like some clues too

10:09 pm

Nef

I do need stats & clues for the 9 & 10, if you can stick around that long

10:10 pm

TraderKate

The problem is that teh "booster" he has set up is tied to his computer..and NO ONE touches his computer... I think it's a glitchin the cprogramming - it worked fine for about 3 weeks... I THINK there was an automatic update for the router that is glitchy and that is the problem...

11:34 pm

TraderKate

Oh rose... so you will be checked into the hospital for 3 days of R&R whle the dose you with ketamine?

11:35 pm

Nef

granny, I used to work withKetamine back in the 70's when we did the Childrens'Heart fund (Kids from around the world would come to the Twin Cities and have cutting edge heart surgeries to repair heart birth defects). They used Ketamine for the chikldren's anesthesia.

11:36 pm

RoundBarn

I have another unpublished one, nef, based on my stay at Greenham Common in the mid 80s--appropriate for now. (I am now archiving all my farm papers for U of Wis--60 boxes so far and some hardware--am finding lots of other stuff in my messes of papers--

11:37 pm

grannyrose

yes kate. i take a small laptop with me, but sometimes i am so spaced out i can hardly read the screen... loll. mind you, doc puts midazalam in with the ketamine nowadays and that helps a lot.

11:37 pm

Nef

It's a great drug that vets use to do surgery on large animals; and now they have used it (I understand) if a person is out of control in emergency situations

11:38 pm

grannyrose

over here nef, it is used all the time for post-op analgesia.

11:38 pm

RoundBarn

bedtime now though--have been much involved politically--my Halloween costume was a Blue Wave--

11:38 pm

TraderKate

midaz alam.... alrazolam... Xanax for ati anxiety rose? sounds like you'll be out of it and floating on the clouds :D

11:39 pm

grannyrose

and since i started having the ketamine infusions, my sleep and central apnea has all but disappeared. there is still such a lot to learn about this drug.

11:39 pm

Nef

It wasn't used often here because a lot of times the hallucinations were really bad. Of course, they have probably learned how to use it better over the past 45 years

11:39 pm

RoundBarn

goodnight all. I like liatening to you.

11:40 pm

Nef

WTG, RoundBarn!!

11:40 pm

TraderKate

Nef.. ketamine is horse tranquilisers LOL.. and unfortunately use as a date rape drug too(?)
saw a tv episode where ket was used...

11:40 pm

grannyrose

sweet dreams roundbarn. lovely to see you again.

11:41 pm

grannyrose

kate, the midazalam is for the nausea while the ketamine goes in.

11:41 pm

TraderKate

sorry to see yu go so wuickly roundbarn... try no to stay away s long - even if you just poop in to say hi... sounds like we all have some catch up reading to do in yur world...
TY for working so hard for the political process!

11:42 pm

Nef

One of my sisters is a vet, Kate. She's told me they need to keep the horses eyes covered until the animal is fully awake

11:42 pm

grannyrose

that's why i was a pharmacy nurse. at least one of my hats was. i am fascinated at how a drug and it's side effects can be used in so many different situations.

11:43 pm

Nef

isn't that the truth, granny? And some of us have the exact opposite reactions to drugs than most people do

11:44 pm

grannyrose

exactly, nef. for instance, i can take cephalothin but not cephazolin. i am allergic to the bonding agent in the latter.

11:44 pm

Nef

(granny, I didn't realize that was your specialty. We don't have that specific title of pharmacy nurses here)

11:46 pm

grannyrose

and many geriatric patients swear by Panamax, and say panadol is ineffective. again the bonding agents are different although the same active ingredient.

11:47 pm

Nef

That is really interesting, granny. I cantake PCN but no cephalosporins because I break out in rashes from them; whereas PCN isn't a problem for me

11:48 pm

Nef

IDK what Panamax is; but isn't Panadol Tylenol here?

11:48 pm

TraderKate

marketed as Versed over here...would have thought you'd have somethng like compazine.. did a quick read on your midazalam...

11:48 pm

grannyrose

*grin* nef, i did say it was ONE of my hats. i was also a pain-management specialist, an ortopaedic specialist, and a crit. care nurse, specialising in post-anaesthesia nursing.

11:49 pm

grannyrose

yes, nef. paracetamol is the active ingredient. names like Tylenol of manufacturers names, paracetamol is the generic name.

11:49 pm

TraderKate

so hard to 'talk drugs" with the Brits(incl. NZ and OZ) because the names are often very different... even anadol - that's just acetaminophen....

11:50 pm

Nef

ahh! My "specialt was CV-ICU (for 34 years), I was a CCRN for 25 of those years 7 was among the first 500 CCRN's in the world. (I did its to prove to myself that I was a good nurse)

11:50 pm

grannyrose

acetaminophen = paracetamol doesn't it?

11:51 pm

TraderKate

jpanadol/paracetemol/tylenol acetaminophen... all the same.
similar for forms of ibuprofen...different names

11:51 pm

Nef

Yep, they are the same, granny

11:51 pm

grannyrose

which is why when i talk drugs i use the generic names. there is usually no confusion then.

11:53 pm

TraderKate

works well for the fancy stuff rose.. but even paracetamol = acetaminophen on this side of the pond.

11:53 pm

TraderKate

the generic names translate better with the more complex drugs though

11:54 pm

grannyrose

yeah, that's a little hard too. one must learn what the generic names are in the different countries.

11:54 pm

Nef

And most are really difficult to pronounce too.

11:55 pm

grannyrose

try clopidogrel

11:56 pm

Nef

what's that one for? It sounds like I *should* know it, but I'm not sure

11:57 pm

grannyrose

plavix. anticoagulant. i have stents in the LAD atery in my heart

11:57 pm

grannyrose

*rolls eyes* aRtery

11:58 pm

Nef

(((granny)))

11:58 pm

grannyrose

yeah well what can i say? only another CCRN would know and understand.

11:59 pm

mkg

ready for flip.

11:59 pm

TraderKate

Plavix = clopidogrel

11:59 pm

Nef

Some of the generic names are really hard to pronounce; and I've had its. tell me they were on 1 drug, when they meant something totally different

11:59 pm

grannyrose

hey mkg. xoxox
