My tubes were removed about 10 years ago so what are my chances .

View 1 RepliesMy Fiance Is Depressed - Fall Out / Loss Of Love
My fiance is depressed. It is my belief that he has battled depression his entire life but has been in denial of it until recently. We have been on and off again for 3 years. While we are together, we experience about a month of good times and then many months of struggle where he seems to get "lost." This has, of course, triggered my own feelings of abandonment and loss. I have been working intensely with my therapist to overcome these feelings for myself. While we are apart it seems to me that he begins to think more clearly and is able to return to our love. We have done this cycle twice. Each time we get closer, he does something to pull us apart and I react in a way that he hates and finds overwhelming. This time I am determined to use all that I have learned in therapy and have been applying it to our relationship and our relationship has been significantly better.
We got engaged in early May and were set to be married in August. One week after getting engaged my SO went on a business trip to the Philippines. He looked up brothels and went to one. When I confronted him about this he said he did not tell me because he was ashamed but that he did not do anything. That he proposed and needed to "draw a line" and needed to be certain he can "walk away." When he got there he realized he wasn't interested and left. His remorse and clarity from this, as well as his connection and vulnerability with me during this time made me feel certain that it was less about me and more about him. We got over it. ( I should mention that he was previously married and has had a history of infidelity.)
One month after that he went on another business trip. Of course my anxiety was heightened and he reassured me that everything will be ok. Needless to say, it wasn't. Supposedly a man in the conference he attended almost died and had to be rushed to the hospital. This triggered his fear of death and he began to drink heavily. I then called his hotel room at 3am just to have a woman answer. The next day he told me they had just gotten there and nothing happened she left right away. He was beside himself. He was saying things along the line of "just give me a gun", "just get away from me, I'm no good for you," "it's over, how can I ever look at you again knowing what I've done to you."
He came home and we talked about it and again his remorse and vulnerability helped me feel connected to him and my therapist helped me understand that I was not to blame. As we worked it out he came to me, hugged me, and said "Thank you for being so good to me. I will be good to you." Many good things came of it, he stopped drinking and has begun to see his own therapist.
We were good for a few days then he began to withdraw. Again, anxiety heightened. I fought for him to open up to me but he couldn't. He continued to tell me that it is not my fault but that he no longer feels the certainty of our relationship. As this is the case, he has called off our wedding (to happen today) and has completely withdrawn from me. He has told me he feels depressed and is unable to return to me. He also told me that the more I talk about it, "it doesn't help" and "pushes" him away more. Yet, I am a person with feelings too and I am deeply hurt by all that has gone on. More so, the lack of connection has begun to intensify the feelings from the two previous events. As if I am feeling them over again and cannot find a reason to work through them.
I can assume that when I put these things out there and I show how hurt I am he has many feelings including inadequacy and pain that he has hurt me. I can also assume that his depression, not me, is to blame for the initial withdrawal and that perhaps therapy and alcohol withdrawal have caused many feelings he has suppressed over the years to come up. It's all rational in my head and all makes sense until it's not and my feelings take over. I am trying to stop myself from becoming too hurt and facing a depression fallout.
I love him with all my heart but as I sit here and write this I just wonder what will become of us. Am I strong enough to deal with this? Will it ever get better? How many more times does he have to go through these depressive episodes? How much time is enough?
Zopiclone :: Fall Asleep But ALWAYS Wake Up At Least Once Or Twice During Night
I'm currently taking Zopiclone (7.5mg) and am now on my third consecutive prescription of it having had an initial 7 days (which didn't work), a further 7 days (which worked some of the time) and now have 14 days, which my doctor has told me to "take as and when needed".
The problem is, most of the time they just don't make me sleep. I become drowsy, fall asleep but then ALWAYS wake up at least once or twice during the night, regardless. I end up waking up feeling groggy and fuzzy headed.
Years ago I was prescribed Temazepam followed by amitriptyline, both for insomnia, but neither of those worked either. I think I'm running out of options.
I hadn't realised until very recently that 7.5mg was the higher dose of the tablets (as opposed to 3.75mg), but is it ok to take one and a half or two at night (occasionally) when I'm in desperate need for some proper sleep?
I'm already on Sertraline (100mg) and Propranolol (10mg x 6 per day) so I'm conscious of not being irresponsible with them... But I REALLY need to sleep!
Cervical Spondylosis :: Sudden / Instant Fall To Sleep
I have had c/s at levels C4,5,6 and 7 for 5 years now. It is progressively getting worse. Instant sleep- I sleep between 6 to 8 hours on average each night, sometimes solid, thanks to my meds, sometimes not. However over the last 10 to 12 weeks something weird is happening. I suddenly fall asleep. Not a few winks but solid sleep, instantly. So I get up , walk around and pick up my laptop and go to my Emails or whatever and sit down to read, only I instantly fall asleep again, wake up looking at my laptop, tell myself to "buck up" and fall back into a sleep. If I sit down to watch t.v. with my wife we will be watching something, chatting about it and suddenly I am asleep again. Could it be that the osteophytes at levels C6 and C7 which are pushing into my spinal cord are progressing to the point that my brain is becoming starved of oxygen?

View 8 RepliesHip Replacement :: They Do What?
I was researching the topic of lower back pain post THR. It concluded that the Hip made the back hurt or the back was making the Hip hurt. >>>?????
They haven't figured that out. Then, they added "of course the hip bone is connected to the back bone and the leg bone is attached to the knee bone"
In this document, they go step by step through the anterior approach, and these 2 images showed up. While your leg is unhinged or whatever they push it back under the good leg to get in the incision better... Then, what's up with the slanting? It is a way to "facilitate the femur" something or adjusts the length.... So... Seriously, I'm laying there with my legs wide open?

View 4 RepliesHip Replacement :: How Much Walking?
I have been reading your posts on your walking progress and am amazed at how much some of you are able to do. I am almost 5 weeks post op and walk every day on my crutches, but it is just up and down the road a few times going a bit further every day. Compared to some of you I don't think I am nearly doing enough walking, my fitness level was bad before the operation due to not being able to weight bear and walk so that may be why my progress seems slower.
I was given the physio exercises, which I do every day, but was given no indication of how far I should be walking or if I should go on when I get pain. Just wondered what your thoughts are on this.
Hip Replacement :: Alcohol
A week before my op and post op I have given up alcohol. We usually share a bottle of wine at the weekend but with the meds I don't think I can. Is this the same for you?. Only three weeks to go, just in time for my wife's birthday.
Hip Replacement :: What Movements Are Okay?
I had a right hip replacement 3 weeks ago and my surgeon gave me very little guidance on what was and wasn't okay. He told me not to do any "leg lifts". I was told that I didn't have to worry about the 90 degree rule (and yet, I do). I have a physical therapist who comes to my home twice a week but all he has told me is "don't pivot" on that leg. After 3 weeks, I'm not experiencing much pain (and when I do it's in odd places, like my knee or my foot). I am now able to sleep on my "good" side using an abduction pillow.
Yesterday, I saw a physician's assistant (not my surgeon) for a post-op visit and I pressed him as to what activities were okay and not okay. He only told me "don't do it if it hurts". That advice is singularly unhelpful. I am comfortable turning my foot in and out but is it okay? I'm comfortable bending over but is it okay? I have no trouble lifting my leg onto the bed but should I continue lifting it with my hands? The information I've found on the internet covers the first couple of weeks after surgery then there seems to be nothing between that and 6 months later when you can "resume normal activities." I'm frustrated and perplexed without any guidance. I'm worried that I could injure myself and have to have corrective surgery - and I'd rather be shot than have to go through that again and have to go back into the hospital!
Re-replacement Of Same Knee
I am scheduled to have the knee I had replaced 9 years ago in May. Just wondered if others have had this done and how they are doing. Have put this off since they told me last year I needed to do it, but pain is enough that I can't do things I enjoy as much. This time I am working on getting the quads and hams tighter. Next, watching the diet to lose the 5 pounds I put back on.
