I can't eat......
by ex-nj-jw inokay, a little history first..... i have severe osteoarthritis in my right knee, so i take 800mg of ibuprofen three times a day to help with the pain.
i've tried all the other anti-inflamatory meds and ibuprofen works the best for me.
because i take the ibuprofen i've given myself pretty bad acid reflux for which i take medication twice a day and it has worked up until this past sunday.. i had a cheeseburger (i usually don't eat like that) but being out of town i splurged....since then everything i eat or drink burns like hell and i feel nauseated .

Dad is doing good..
by ex-nj-jw infirst of all i want to say thanks to all those sending good thoughts/vibes and even prayers!.
my dad made it through 7 hours of surgery, he did loose quite a bit of blood but he's a tough old man and is hanging in there.
the stroke affected the left side of his body, the doctor thinks he will have some loss of function on his left side, but until he actually wakes up fully and goes thru therapy we really won't know.. i don't know if it's because i'm a nurse or if the nurses and doctors were tired of dealing with the jw's and my mom, but they gave the ok for me .
