Early, hopefully temporary, retirement spending all my energy defeating an untimely cancer diagnosis.

4 grown children , 2 daughters in law, 4 grandchildren, wonderful husband and my best buds: Loki my heart dog- 3 yo Golden and Jaz, rescued 1 yo flat coated retriever.

Surgical PA, inspired to obtain my MD- practicing has been so important -I truly miss everything about it? 

So glad to continue meeting and pming with so many in this wonderful community!❤️

 
@Screla I wanted to like you post, but felt that liking cancer just isn't right.

I know you will win your battle and get back to doing what you love. We love having you with us!

 
I'm sorry to hear this @schrela! I really wish you the best, all the positivity I can muster and hope we have you for years to come!  ☺ 

 
@schrela - You can beat that cancer, others have done it, and you know how to fight back.  I don't know if it helps, but in the days immediately after my heart attack, and subsequent diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension, there were times I felt lackadaisical, and just wanted to give up (I trained for years to reach the level of physical conditioning I was maintaining, and to be told  "You'll never be able to do that again" was large suckage) - But I convinced myself I had to overcome this affliction for my family - Who else would provide for them?  Cheesy, I know...But it worked, or I wouldn't be typing this.

Best regards my friend - My money's on you in this fight.

@Back2GoodI really appreciate you taking the time to send me your positive thoughts and wishes! It means a lot to me- this forum is a wonderful, supportive community and I've truly valued getting to "know" so many compassionate people.

I'm impressed with your strength and resolve to fight and move forward after your heart attack and especially pulmonary hypertension!

your family must be wonderful❤️

Best

Schrela

 
@PTFCand of course thank you also!!  You are always so right on the money with everyone and everything on this forum - I'll take a dose of your energy and positive attitude anytime

 
I'm a home health care nurse. I love the hands-on- people aspect of nursing, but the charting is kicking my "You-know-what". I'm an older nurse and it takes me a little longer to finish tasks. It doesn't help that I struggle with a lot of psych issues and take a whole lot of meds. My  MD prescribed addys, mainly for focus and concentration. They have helped, but the good ole' MD won't increase the dose. No more discussion or else what she currently allows will be discontinued. So, I've learned to search the net, found this wonderful group, and, I'm  finding other creative ways to get what I need.

It's crazy to see the people on here whom are from all walks of life. I would have never expected anyone from the medical field from here. Until just now I assumed anyone in the medical field would be able to get the proper meds they need. 

 
I am not a thief, so I don't take medication meant for my patients. I do have some moral and ethicts. I love my job and I don't see my job as my supplier. That would get me fired real fast, and I am not that desparate. Buying vitamins over the internett only affects me personally. Taking what's not mind affects the weakest in health care. Big difference.

Oh not for a second did I think you were stealing meds. I hope you didn't take that the wrong way. What I meant was being that you are in the medical profession you would have the proper channels and have the relationships with doctors in order to get the meds you need. Again sorry if I offended you!

 
I install impact windows, doors, glass, the big stuff sometimes.  Hot, heavy and usually dangerous

 
I am a full time self employed transport engineer, and part time self enjoyed cannabis connoisseur!   :784_peace:

I'm retired very fortunately married to a retired older man. Full time pot grower while in Denver. Leaving my home down south can't wait to start growing again. Got a ton of seeds from Attitude Seed Bank and hundreds of more I keep in jars from friends in California and Denver. People in Denver are so kind they just give away clones and seeds to me. But I'm not a clone person like to grow from seed so put indica clones outside don't want them bringing problems in my veg or grow rooms. I got some DJ Short Blueberry calling my name and some blue dream kosher Kush and white widow etc.... Like to think of myself as the grand mistress at monster cropping. Everyone says my husbands tomatos are beautiful because we use access Advanced Nutrients and Root Excelutator and other organic nutes to my veges!

I keep my private life and my work life seperate, so I wouldn't dream of using any kind of connection that would get in the way of professionalism. I could  and I will never ask for presciriptions from doctors I work with.  I am not the kind of person to take advantage even if there was a loophole I could.

Ok I understand. I still didn't mean it that way at all either. It's been nice chatting! Have a great weekend!

  1. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  2. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  3. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  6. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  8. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  9. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  10. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  11. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  12. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
  13. R @ Royboy99: Maybe it’s the admixture of my South American dna that works so well with it ? 🤷
  14. R @ Royboy99: It’s all evident in memory recall, my emails, meetings, … people invest everything they have in a nootropic that provides this… desperately searching without success and it’s right there right under their nose (no pun) … stigmatized by society and outlawed.
  15. R @ Royboy99: Now I’m not foolish or delusional to think that it made Edison who he was … it just allowed him to Edison to Edison to a greater degree … and I see it doing that for me and others who use it as a productive tool and not a substance of abuse.. you can look at this data with the level of patents filed by Edison during that time … comparable to Barry bonds or McGuire breaking records while they were subtly enhanced
  16. R @ Royboy99: One could argue that we would not have motion pictures if it wasn’t for ❄️
  17. R @ Royboy99: I also take month long breaks and replace with Ritalin for receptor recovery
  18. R @ Royboy99: And while it may sound insane and completely destructive … small microdoses of ❄️ has really transformed me. I did extensive research on its use by Edison, the pope at the time, and many others who got great benefit from a wine concoction called vin Mariani … this subtle enhancement changed the world and as long its used with a high degree of control, it’s amazing. you may think I’m crazy … but I’m just being as transparent as I can
  19. R @ Royboy99: I’ve grown to realize that my time is finite and Im only getting older… I’m back to relying on small PRN doses of FDA trialed BZDs and it’s made tremendous improvements to my quality of life. I just need to get out there more and meet someone new, it’s the only piece that’s missing since I’ve managed to get it together
  20. R @ Royboy99: @LatsDoodis: thanks brother … I’ve spent months trying to put myself in uncomfortable places to grow stronger. Hours of research, thousands on supplements, therapy etc …
