HealthParticipant
yos – everyone eats cooked chicken. I personally like ground chicken in balls, a type of fricasse.
HealthParticipant“just the basic NO CRUMB thing.”
There is nothing wrong with having chometz crumbs on Pesach, just don’t eat them. The gemorrah says they are Bottel by themselves.
“Monty Hall?”
He must mean Mutty Hall from the Yeshiva D’Let’s Make a Deal!
“Do you vant vatts behind door #1?
HealthParticipantOh, is he dead? Then he must have a lot of clones!
HealthParticipantI think with the hard lenses if you keep them in too long, you can scratch your cornea. I remember reading the story of the woman who thought her contacts were still in so she kept scratching. It turned out what she was feeling was her cornea and she kept scratching it and felt it more and more. I wonder how long that took to heal.
HealthParticipant“vile no less” – What is vile?
HealthParticipantMaybe his milk does. And it wouldn’t be drinking, more like eating.
HealthParticipantShtick – I think both would be grammatically correct. But I’m the furthest from an expert; but I think I know how to spell, not like a lot of posters.
HealthParticipantWhile he’s at his chasunah, go into the house where he will be for Pesach and chometz it all up!
HealthParticipantI never owned lenses and I almost never sleep in my glasses.
HealthParticipantTake them to Bais Din and get permission to apply to court to evict them. The sooner you start, the better. You won’t get them out for Pesach, look for another solution for your space problem.
Perhaps a neighbor can help with some space?
HealthParticipantA lot of people complain about this. I never had this problem in my whole life, B’H. I will tell you one thing -never lie in bed if you can’t sleep. Also, meds aren’t the way to go. All the medical sites on the web are full of info on insomnia.
HealthParticipantMy .02 – Actually, I’m not. I’m in the Health field. Perhaps I gave you a clue with my screen name.
It doesn’t bother me that kids or teenagers post, but what bothers me is that they post to adults and don’t have a 5th grade spelling level. I don’t per se care about grammar, but it gets to a point that the whole CR appears childish!
HealthParticipantWhat you want to do is keep someone on hold while you play the field. This depends how you do it. If you tell #1 the truth, I’m not sure right now, let’s take a break and I’ll think about it. In this case you aren’t misleading anybody. And if you don’t like #2, you can always go back to #1 (if he’s available). If the guy wants to wait, it’s not because you were misleading him because you never gave him any false hopes. I have the feeling this isn’t the case, because if it were you wouldn’t be asking the public’s opinion. I have the feeling what you want to do is keep #1 hanging thinking you’re interested in him, while you try out #2. Because by being honest and telling him you want a break, he might just say forget it and move on. You want to control the situation. This is the ultimate manipulation. Yes there are plenty of people who need to manipulate others in relationships. But is this the purpose of any relationship, let alone the most important relationship -the marriage institution-to manipulate others? A lot of people just want to get married, but what is the purpose of this marriage, just to control your spouse? Sadly, I’ve seen quite a few marriages like this!
HealthParticipant“He found that fifty percent of those who attended public speaking courses in college feel uncomfortable speaking.”
It’s like any course in college, some gain from it and some don’t. If you’re a good student -you try to gain as much as you can from every subject you learn.
HealthParticipantI don’t expect basic grammar or punctuation or even spelling of some words, but people keep making the same mistakes in spelling on the same words. Elementary students know how to spell these words correctly.
HealthParticipant“comming… look at the world, its gone mad! Japan, arabs, egypt … HASHEM is definatly”
“Coming”, “Egypt”, “definitely”.
HealthParticipantForget “Hamodia”, try the classifieds. There are a lot of people that need business letters.
HealthParticipantMoving on – means things don’t bother you the same way it did when it was hot out of the oven. You didn’t move on because you still are very emotional about things people say about you and your “scandal” and you aren’t remarried.
HealthParticipantClassifieds, I think in these newspapers cost about $15.
And what about the “Hamodia” -so they made changes, but did they pay you?
HealthParticipant“About health or Health??”
I’ll ignore this one -I’m not that interesting.
My ex (a writer) had offers from “Hamodia”, but they aren’t necessary the easiest to work for. Also, you can advertise in Yiddishe newspapers that you do writing. A lot of mainly speaking Yiddish people many times need business letters written for them in English.
HealthParticipant“No,Health…I MOVED ON!!”
How could you move on if it came today?
Obviously, this is a reference to one of my previous posts. When I said move on – I meant get remarried.
Are these your relatives? And what do they want with you now -at this stage? And why is it “the most hurtful letter I ever got in my life”, if you “moved on”? If this truly is a derogatory letter – it deserves a response. I can’t advise you what -unless I know more.
HealthParticipantadorable – “Health- are you so sure that I am not your sister?!?!?!??!?!?!!”
I’m 100% sure you’re not. We live in Jersey and you live in Monsey.
HealthParticipanteclipse -Was this letter recent or was it at the time of your divorce?
HealthParticipantpopcorn – (Do you like Jiffy pop?)
I heard a similar story that happenned to a Podiatrist at his wedding, but he didn’t have to go to the hospital -all his friends at the chasunah took care of his wound.
HealthParticipantI don’t think this is sad or tragic. It might not have been the best chasunah of all time, but I’m sure it was plenty nice up to the injured foot. I know of a story were a middle aged guy in good health ( I won’t mention his name), was dancing at his daughter’s chasunah and had a heart attack and died -either there or in the hospital. Can you imagine how his daughter was feeling?
HealthParticipanthappiest -It could be low blood sugar or dehydration amongst other things. Drink a few cups of OJ and lie down for about 20 minutes. If still not feeling well or feel worse, go to the nearest ER, either someone can drive you or you can go by ambulance. Arrythmias, amongst other problems will have to be ruled out.
HealthParticipantCF – ” why is it that every time i see that you have posted i know i am gonna end up upset? i should learn my lesson and STOP reading them! youre entitled to ur opinion BUT i dont have to agree. and please dont make a big deal arguing your point i hear what your saying and i respect your opinion but like i said i donnt agree and i dont wanna fight!”
I’m not here to get you or anyone upset. I’m here to help you with your illness. Sometimes I think young people feel -won’t this just go away and I won’t have to deal with this anymore. It’s possible that they will develop a cure or close to it, but in the meantime you have to learn to deal with what Hashem gave you. It will take hard work throughout your lifetime to keep complications at bay. But you can do it, even if it has to be constant. I think you feel if I’m not there yet, I failed. This is so far from the truth – eg. you just started exercising better. You are well on your way to getting this disease under control. The only one putting you down is yourself because you live in the NOW generation. If you don’t have it or get it now, you will never get it. Your self-criticism -you are deflecting on me. I still stand by my statement of sometimes people need “tough love”. I don’t think you are one of the ones that need it, but sometimes people need different motivations. You are very self-critical and that’s why you think I was talking about you. Nobody has to be perfect in this world, but we all have to try.
HealthParticipantAbcd2 – I second your post.
farrockgrandma -One of the leading causes of ulcers is H. Pylori. This can only be diagnosed by a physician. Another reason to check out persistent heartburn.
HealthParticipantHaLeiVi – That wouldn’t be fair. Some of us, like me, would have pretty hefty charges! ;)>
HealthParticipantadorable – Actually what I was talking about was something recent on a topic called A1c.
Don’t worry about the Mods -whenever they don’t like a post of mine they just edit it.
HealthParticipantCF – Well you have to look at it from my point of view -First of all if you want everything to be sugar-coated, then go to one of the doctors that do this. Second of all, what do I have to lose besides the patient going elsewhere -they were discouraged before I met them and they are still discouraged. No gain or loss. By being tough, sometimes you can turn people around. Acc. to the Torah, you’re allowed to hit a kid (Some people hold not in our generation.)? Why, why not just tell them off? Because sometimes to make a point come across, you have to take desperate measures to accomplish this. I remember some of the Petch I received as a child.
Why do people seek help from medical professionals? Do they want them to pity them, like their peers and family or do they want them to maintain and keep their health? If you told the patient to do something and they aren’t listening, I believe you should try a different appproach -sometimes this might include having “tough love”! Or you can take the easy way out and just patronize the patient and say “I’m glad your trying -keep it up”. This practioner only cares about themselves and not the patient because they are doing nothing to prevent complications.
Young people with diabetes know nothing of the complications of diabetes, but I do -I’ve seen it. They lie around the corner waiting to spring. The hospitals & nursing homes are full of patients with diabetic complications. Ok, granted some are newly diagnosed, but what about the others? The answer is because their practioners didn’t put in enough effort. They took the easy out -“It’s ok, you’ll try harder next time”. Next time came and they said the same thing. This happens until the patient comes down with complications. Now it’s too late to prevent them, only to treat them. “A ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”
The way a lot of these complications are treated isn’t a pretty sight! I won’t go into details here.
HealthParticipantI guess consider yourself lucky that it still affects you. I’ve been numb since childhood. No, it’s not my career choice or too much TV, just when I was a kid I was exposed to -too much stuff in the street, like a neighbor (goy) chasing his girlfriend around the car pumping bullets into her.
HealthParticipanttralala – Actually the difference between me and some others is that I believe in “tough love”. It’s not that difficult to be nice to every patient and let them do what they want. But, are you really helping them? Are you helping them live longer – more healthy lives? Or are you just winning the popularity contest and making lots and lots of money, even though your patients are misreable and have tons of complications/hospitalizations?
You decide which is the right way. I would say a good portion if not most, are the latter.
HealthParticipantMDG – Soon YWN will start charging for CR posting.
HealthParticipantHelping other students succeed in your own field is basic mentchlichkeit, if you have the time.
HealthParticipant“Health-brother of yours can very well be your sister.”
Nope, my sister doesn’t blog or even own a computer. There is that one in a million chance -that she isn’t what she appears to be. But, the chance is so remote, I’d wager on it.
HealthParticipantforever 1 – Well look at it this way -You are giving it up willingly. If you don’t want to give it up, then he/she can say -Go find someone else to be your doctor!
HealthParticipanti am here -“I live off tums it works”
commonsense – “tums is baby steps, try zantac, tagamet, prevacid, prilosec etc… they are all available over the counter and really work.”
These drugs may be available without a prescription, but they shouldn’t be taken on a regular basis without your PCP’s orders. If you have “Heartburn” once in awhile, then it’s ok.
If you have stomach/intestinal problems all the time, you need to go for a diagnosis. GERD is just one of many things that can be diagnosed. There are many possibilities -some serious, some not.
HealthParticipantstamagoy – “to start adressing others by their first name. differant genders of differant ages!!
i think anyone who disagreees with this is just closing thier”
English please! “ADDressing”, “DifferEnt, “ThEIr”!
HealthParticipantbrotherofurs – Brother of Yours:
One thing I can tell you, you aren’t My brother – I have no brothers!
HealthParticipantDaas Yochid – I agree!

HealthParticipantTralala -“dx3, thanks for letting us know that the dr isn’t allowed to take it away, mine also said she would…”
No, that’s not what he said. The doc will take it away. This isn’t a punishment, but it’s his/hers job to help you manage Diabetes. If you can’t lower your A1c’s, that’s telling the doc -on the avg. you have high BG’s. If the doc has to put you on Insulin via subq in order to try to control the BG’s, then that’s exactly what he/she will do!
HealthParticipantHRH (Joe) – I know where it was. He never liked liked my posts there, even way before this one. He started back when I first posted on the diabetic thread and continued on the A1c thread. I just thought everyone agreed with him – I guess Not!
BTW- G’luck with your new SN. If you behave yourself, you won’t get blocked.
HealthParticipantIf a person wants to call Hatzolah -let them call Hatzolah, if they want to call 911 -let them call 911. There is no reason to call both. The victim or victim’s family don’t need this extra burden. If the H dispatcher can determine from the caller that it’s an ALS call or Hatzolah members at the scene determine it’s ALS, Hatzolah dispatchers should and probably do call for ALS backup. Don’t confuse a simple situation! The best thing that people can do besides calling EMS is to learn CPR & First Aid in order to help YOUR family member until professional help arrives!
BTW, this is why 911 keeps you on the phone so long to tell you what to do, if you never learned or if you forgot. I’ll reiterate – Everyone should learn CPR & First Aid! You should also refresh every one -two years, so you won’t forget!
HealthParticipantI only thought that because someone (A retired Mod) started a poll to say how everybody didn’t like my posts.
HealthParticipantWhat did the mayo say to the fridge?
Hey, close the door; I’m dressing!
HealthParticipantDY – You mean to write – It was such a delicious BBQ, there wasn’t a drop left!
HealthParticipantadorable – You seem to be the only one here that actually like my posts.
Thanks.
HealthParticipantyogi – Why would you leave the girl by herself?
HealthParticipantWhat I’m talking about is sometimes things go hand in hand. You can start working on yourselves beforehand, but you might need a boost to get over it, like marriage. Like the concept -“Gita V’yoda Boin K’echod.”
