Thanks for the info. I'll make an appt. and at least talk to the surgeon. I won't do anything until next year when my medical deductable resets. If I'm going to max out a 5k deductable then I want the whole year to have cheaper medical in case something else breaks !
I've just leaned that my hearing loss is due to Otosclerosis and I have a choice of doing nothing, getting a hearing aid or having Stapedectomy surgery.
I would love to get rid of the ringing in that ear but the surgery scares the heck out of me.
Has anyone had it and how were your...
I suffer from this problem along with bent elbow disease.
I did well last year and lost 20#. I was comitted and counted calories and was very strict. Then when I went off the diet everything just went back to the bad habits. This year I was supposed to lose 20#, I've gained 10.
I love...
I just went thru the same thing. I hate mirrors..
But I ended up with this one and I like it

I have the same issues. It's quite embarrassing.
I've asked my doc and he just threw some pills at me. I read all the side effects and did not take them. I had another friend who went to an urologist and she had surgery to tighten the bladder muscles.
I would like to know if exercises...
It's a hard lesson to learn when someone close to you passes away. My sister died a few years back, she was only in her early 50's. I was not close to her because I was too lazy and selfish to take the time and make a relationship work. Now she is gone. I cannot atone for my stupidity...
I rolled my ankle playing tennis. There are a couple of spots of bruising below the ankle bone and on the heel. I can walk but if I get off center on the ankle I scream.
Has anyone rolled their ankle ? How long before I can play tennis again ??
I've had both little toes operated on for hammer toe and they had to go back in and fix my left foot again for hammer toe and I also had a tailors bunion. They put a pin/post in when they fixed the bunion and when it healed the pin/post caused more pain then the original bunion. So I had to...
Damn spanky - everyone looks cut, gorgeous, and perfect.
Could the next set of dvd's have a mix of old, young, fit and not so fit people on it ??
I'd like to see people more like myself working out, getting fit and doing the routines.

I've snored all my life. I had a sleep study about 6yrs ago and it showed no apnea but off the scale snoring. They recommended a dental appliance that holds your bottom jaw forward. I made an appointment and then cancelled it. I bought some cheap thing off the tv and tried that but it hurt...
In a bad economy I would assume that no one would be buying used workout equipment, and even when you could sell it you could only get 50% of the value -- then I would not part with one thing ! I would rather go without something else. :)
I'm looking for standard size clips (or collars or clamps) for my weight bar that are easy to grip and put on. I'm finding that my hand strength has diminished as I get older and the spring clamps are very hard for me to squeeze. I have two sets and they both seem very hard for me to squeeze...
I have a friend that has been having very bad back pain right before her periods. She finally went to a doc and they found by ultrasound a large mass. I think she said it's on her ovary. She is going to an Oncologist on Monday.
I learned from another lady - oh and get what this lady said -...
Are you saying the gallstone diagnosis was correct but the gallbladder attack is questionable ?
My father in law had a gallbladder attack many years ago and he took many months to recover from the surgery. But he was in his 50's.
I would not opt for surgery unless there was a definable...
