RECLAST INFUSION…………NOVEMEBER 2022.
RECLAST IS FOR OSTEOPOROSIS………….IF YOU ARE SO LUCKY TO BE A CANDIDATE THIS IS A” DRIP” INTO YOUR VEINS FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES.
ONCE THIS IS DONE YOU GO BACK AGAIN IN A YEAR!
I WILL DO THIS FOR THREE YEARS……….THEN THEY CHECK BONE DENSITY AGAIN AND RE-EVALUATE I THINK!
THIS IS ALL NEW TO ME, BUT I AM SHARING WITH YOU ALL AND MAYBE SOME OF YOU HAVE GONE THROUGH THIS ALREADY?
IAM 62 YEARS OLD.
This all started a few years back in my fifties.
THE LOSS OF BONE DENSITY!

I WAS A BIT ALARMED WHEN IT WAS THE ONCOLOGY DEPARTMENT WHO WAS ADMINISTERING IT TO ME!
I PULLED UP MY BIG GIRL PANTS AND ACTED LIKE A BIG GIRL THAT I AM AND TRIED NOT TO SHOW ANY EMOTION ON MY FACE AS YOU KNOW I AM A HIGHLY SENSITIVE PERSON. I TEND TO SUCK UP OTHERS ENERGIES OR LACK THERE OF……and am a BIG WORRY WART!
ZOMETA.
AS THIS DRUG IS CALLED (NOT RECLAST SO CONFUSING TO ME) IS A DRUG FOR BISPHOSPHONATES.
WHAT IS IT USED FOR?
AS A SUPPORT MEDICATION TO TREAT SYMPTOMS OF CANCER SUCH AS HYPERCALCEMIA (HIGH BLOOD CALCIUM)OR TO DECREASE COMPLICATIONS SUCH AS FRACTURES OR PAIN PRODUCED BY BONE METASTASIS SPREAD OF CANCER TO THE BONE.
NO!!
I DONOT HAVE CANCER …………….

THEN ON TOP OF THAT EXPERIENCE I RECEIVED; AN EMAIL FROM MY NEUROLOGIST STATING THERE IS NO MORE OF MY ANTI-SEIZURE MEDICATION AVAILABLE!
WHICH IS CALLED BRIVIACT.
THE SUPPLY CHAIN IS STILL HAVING ISSUES!
I HAVE FOCAL SEIZURES DUE TO EPILEPSY THEY TELL ME SO I TAKE TWO ANTI-SEIZURE MEDICATIONS DAILY.
THIS HAS BEEN ON GOING NOW FOR 8 YEARS AS OF NOV.4TH WHEN I STARTED KEEPING TRACK!
I TELL YOU I NEVER CONSIDERED MYSELF A STRONG PERSON, BUT LATELY I HAVE A GOOD CRY AND THEN I AM ON THE BANDWAGON AGAIN!
THE ITALIAN SUGGESTS CALLING OTHER PHARMACIES………….OKAY I CAN DO THAT!
I CALLED FOUR AND NO ONE HAD IT IN MY AREA!
I HAD AN EPISODE WITH MY EYES AFTER THREE MONTHS OF NOTHING!
I HAD CUT BACK THAT MORNING TO HALF A PILL TO SLOWLY WEAN MYSELF OFF………………AS I WILL RUN OUT OF PILLS IN SIX DAYS TIME!
I HAVE BEEN OFFERED ANOTHER PILL TO REPLACE THE “SUPPLY CHAIN” MISSING IN ACTION MEDICATION!
I HAVE TRIED THAT PILL IN 2017 AND HAD A HORRIBLE TIME WITH IT.
(IT IS OFTEN GIVEN TO MIGRAINE SUFFERS)
I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE SECOND TIME IS CHARM FOR MANY!
SO HERE WE GO DOWN THAT LANE WHICH IS HEADED STRAIGHT FOR THE HOLIDAYS AND EVENTS I WAS SO LOOKING FORWARD TOO!FOR ME LIFE HAPPENS ONE DAY AT A TIME.I KNOW UPON GETTING UP IF I CAN GO OUT OR NOT……..BELIEVE ME ITS NO WAY TO LIVE.
I SEEM TO HAVE BEEN THE CHOSEN ONE!
YES PLEASE LAUGH OUT LOUD AS THAT IS MY HUMOR KICKING IN.
DOES ANYONE HAVE A CONNECTION WITH THE BRIVIACT SUPPLIERS?

BETTY THE ROTTI………WHO GOT A NEW BED AND IS NOT THAT FOND OF IT!
HER LOOK TODAY IS HOW I FEEL………………..
LET’S MOVE ON TO FUN THINGS…………..LIKE MAKE-UP!
SO THAT BOBBI BROWN SOLD OUT TO Estee Lauder YEARS AGO AND CAME OUT OF RETIREMENT TO CREATE A NEW BRAND CALLED JONES ROAD BEAUTY.
I HAD SEEN THEIR AD FOR FOUNDATION AS YOU KNOW I DO NOT NEED AS I LOVE THE FIERA AND PERBELLE I HAVE SHARED WITH YOU ALL IN THE PAST!PLUS, I DONOT GO ANYWHERE THESE DAYS THAT REQUIRES A FACE!BUT SOMETHING SAID TRY IT!OKAY I HAPPEN TO LISTEN TO MY INNER VOICE ON OCCASION……….
THEY HAVE YOU ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS THEN IF YOU WANT YOU CAN SEND A SELFIE AND THEY WILL TELL YOU WHAT THEY THINK!SO, THATS WHAT I DID…………….SEE BELOW!
ONCE YOU GET PASSED THE DIRTY HAIR……..THE CROOKED NOSE AND THE UGLY TEETH!
DID I EVER TELL YOU THE STORY OF HOW I WAS MISSING 7 TEETH WHEN I WAS BORN?
THE DENTIST TOLD MY MOTHER I BETTER BRING MY FIANCE IN BEFORE MARRIAGE IN CASE HE WAS MISSING TEETH AS OUR CHILDREN MIGHT HAVE NONE!
WELL, THAT WASNOT THE CASE……………my boys have BEAUTIFUL TEETH.
DO YOU KNOW IN ITALY WHEN I LIVED THERE BACK IN THE 1990’S; ITALIANS DIDNOT GO TO HAVE THEIR TEETH CLEANED ON A REGULAR BASIS?
ONLY IF THERE IS A PROBLEM!
WHICH THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW WITH THAT ITALIAN I LIVE WITH!
ROOT CANALS AND GUMS ARE HIS ISSUES!
NOT ME. I HAVE THOSE SEVEN MISSING TEETH THAT HAVE BEEN REBUILT BY ARTIFICIAL MEANS AND PUT IN PLACE SINCE I WAS 15………………..WHO CAN DO THE MATH ON THAT?
IAM INFORMED BY THE DENTIST EVERY TIME I SEE HIM; THEY ARE SOLID AS A ROCK!
“DON’T MAKE THEM LIKE THEY USE TOO!”
HOWEVER I AM NOT A CANDIDATE FOR THE TEETH WHITENING EVERYONE SEEMS TO HAVE DONE!
AS THE “FAKE” TEETH WILL NOT TAKE THE WHITENING PRODUCT SHALL WE CALL IT PROCEDURE OR MEDICATION THAT IS APPLIED.SO THATS WHY MY TEETH ARE BROWN AND A DISCOLORATION APPEARS.
I CAN LIVE WITH IT!
MY SMILE IS NOT THAT BIG.
