OT Update on Texas Janet
 

I know that many of you have sent thoughts and prayers my way, so I feel
obligated to share some news.

With doctor permission, I started taking vitamin K-2 supplements on
Friday. Today my platelets were up to 44,000 from a low of 13,000 on
Thursday. No new bruising or bleeding.

I have been having a terrible weakness in my thighs and legs causing me
to have a walker wherever I'm sitting as I can't always get myself up.
I think this is from the steroids, so I discontinued them today, with
doctor permission, and hope to start feeling a lot better without them.

He ordered me some kind of breathing machine which I can't figure out,
Home Health Care and Home Physical Therapy.

Had my first radiation treatment today. I'm so happy to just be doing
something positive to treat this beast. 34 more treatments to go. Will
have to do a few double-ups to make my flight on October 8.

Will have steak for dinner tonight, with more green food on the side.
Made a big bowl of chopped chicken livers to snack on with crackers
before the TV. Got to get in as much iron and calcium as I can.

Also got the go-ahead to take some big doses of B-12 for energy.

The chicken came out very nicely on Friday. Still leftovers and would
appreciate any hints to hide dark meat. All I can think of is chicken
salad with lime-mayo, celery and onion.

The induction cook top finally came today. Might try it to saute some
green food with dinner.

Sounds like you're moving firmly in the right direction - bravo!

That leftover chicken would be dandy in enchiladas with some Hatch chile
and cheese.

Do you have any uncoated cast-iron cookware? Food will absorb some iron
from that. And an old granny-method for adding iron is to stick a
(scrupulously clean) nail/spike or two in an apple, leave it overnight,
and eat the apple in the morning. Every little bit helps!

I could do enchiladas. I usually make them with leftover chicken.

I do have cast iron pans. They are very heavy and I'm not sure I can
handle one right now. I'll try to gt out the small one. Maybe fry some
bacon and onion add a handful of greens

When I use cast iron on the induction hob, I use a piece of baking
parchment to prevent scratching.

Such good news about your platelets. What an enormous improvement!
B12, sublingual tablets don't give you much B12. A shot goes
directly into the blood stream with immediate results. Shots are dirt
cheap compared to the pills. A shot once a month should do the trick.
If interested, ask your doc.
All the best, hugs

When I saw the word, "quitter," it made me think of a young friend of
mine whose parents are forcing her to do ****ing Alcoholics Anonymous,
on threat of cutting off all support for her education. She has to get
THC tested too, weekly.

Folks who are 18-20 years old are presumed to have the judgement to
decide to join the military, to kill and be killed, but not to decide
whether or not to have a drink. That's stupid. If they're going to set
the drinking age at 21, they should move the military service age there
too, but they won't because joining the armed forces is foolish, and
they rely on the poorer judgement of younger folks to get fresh cannon
fodder.

Hide the dark meat? IMO that is the best part. Last night I did a
chicken on the gas BBQ rotisserie. All I did to it was sprinkle salt and
pepper inside and out, stuck it on the spit and put in in the BBQ for
about an hour and a half. It turned out beautifully.

I don't care for dark meat flavor at all, Dave. Hiding it in enchiladas
sounds like a good idea.

I brand you officially silly. I am no friend of Steve, and TTBOOMK, Marty
still has me KF'd. If anyone should care about Steve killing off
a.f.fast-food, it should be me. You hide behind anonymity, whereas Steve,
Marty and myself do not. You, *Mayo*, are a ****ing coward who nymshifts,
tries to build allies, and conducts yourself like a verbally precocious
7th grader with the playground mentality of a 5th grader.

Whatever Steve and Marty's faults, they pale next to yours. You are
worthless. For better or worse, they are real persons, while you are an
anonymous coward.

My Endo. said that they usually start people out on the shots and if those
work then they might progress to sublingual. But if you have pernicious
anemia, then shots are the only way to go.

When I was pregnant with number one, I puked for 7 months. I had a B-12
shot once a week.

I will take supplements and also some sublingual for a boost. I can
also swallow the sublinguals.

There goes our fun! Okay, I'll do all the work! ;)

>causing me to have a walker wherever I'm sitting as I can't always get myself up.

Whenever I'm weeding I use a kneeling pad but I also bring a
contractor bucket, to carry stuff but also to help me get up as long
periods of kneeling cause my knees to cramp up.

Steroids are very bad, lots of awful side effects... I will never take
prednisone again.

Breathing machine? Do you mean an oxygen generator, a nebulizer,
c-pap, what?

I hope it works.

In my opinion dark meat makes for the best chicken salad... adds
moisture.. I really don't care for all white meat chicken salad, even
with a ton of mayo it's too dry. I like celery but I don't like
onions in chicken salad... rather parsley and dillweed.

I have tons of Swiss chard and collards growing, you're welcome to
help yourself to all you want. I intend to stir fry my next batch a
la oriental; black bean paste, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sesame oil,
white pepper... you know the drill.

If you send me your snail mail I'll send you a get well gift, a bra of
your choice with matching panties... from your picture I'll guess a
purfect 34 C... teal turns me on, I'm also partial to silver lame'. ;)

Janet, all kidding aside, get well fast.

Um, some of us are dated... are you saying Janet is over the hill...
I don't think Janet is a thirty year old but I doubt she's given
up... experience is far more valuable than youth.
