The one that needs an American husband so she can leave Britian.

Oh yeah, also Alex's ex.  Sorry, hard to keep this all straight.

So is she truly hot or one of those inner hot female friend type things.

Not sure, but my experience has been the hotter they are the bigger pain in the but they tend to be.

Certainly seems a correlation, presumably why she is the ex.

could be. It wasnt discussed when I had mine. I had a fusion of 5 6 7 ,he did something to address the stenosis, and removed deposits, spurs etc.

 

To be honest it wasnt that bad. I rather enjoyed my 10 weeks off eating pain meds and watching every episode of 2.5 men  The worst part was wearing the collar.

 

He did have me wear some bone growth stimulator electromagnetic device that I am sure cost my insurance company $$$. I was skeptical of that. 

 

Funny story my two implants come off the other day. Front teeth.  I was scared to death my implants had failed. I looked and the abutment and post looked fine. So I went down to CVS and got some dental cement putty stuff and put the crowns back on. All is well. I am sure my dentist is going to be mortified. Just have not had the time. I would be your favorite patient. I have about a 2300 dollar credit balance with him. They call sometimes and ask why I keep sending them money, I told them I know its coming...Lay Away LOL. 

Superglue FTW!  That stuff works great for teefs falling off.

Indeed. There's a reason I refer to them as leftists and not liberals. They've abandoned many liberal viewpoints in but a few short years. Melt away, snowflakes.

Sorry to hear about your migraines.  My wife has been plagued with migraines for most of her life, and the worthless neurologist we had gone to several years ago said they were just typical migraines and she would just have to deal with it!  Her migraines usually start with a very distinct and exaggerated sense of smell,  and then the horrible super sensativity to light and sound along with nausea and vomiting.  Imitrex was of limited help.  She would spend a couple of days in bed with the room dark and cold.  After that she was wiped out for a few days.  About 2 years ago it had gotten so bad that she was having terrible migraines almost weekly.  A couple of doctors I know suggested we go to Miami for help.  Ended up at the Miami Headache Institute  The doctor was great and did a lot of testing.  Diagnosis was spinal stenosis C5, C6, C7 as the main cause.  He treated her with stem cell injections in the back of her neck and head.  Quite painful, but the results have been remarkable.  Now it's no more than one much milder migraine per month.  She still gets some headaches and they seem to be starting from a couple of trigger points in her neck and back.  We are working on that.  If she will let me I want to inject a mixture of botox and lidocaine in those area and see how that works.

Thank you for posting this -- I'm glad to hear your wife is doing better. It sounds far, far worse than what I have -- I am lucky (if one can say anything about being a migraine sufferer is lucky) that they are infrequent, but they do tend to cluster. When I get one, I know a few more are going to follow, like echoes of an earthquake. The build up to one is infuriating, because I know it's going to happen, but I try to dismiss it as something else, like allergies causing my eyes to be cloudy. But the funky things -- like in your wife, the exaggerated sense of smell, or with me where I start "seeing" songs as colors (I did not know that "Eleanor Rigby" by the Beatles is mahogany brown, or that Lizzo's "Good As Hell" is magenta until THAT migraine) or hearing people say something innocuous but also hear at the same time superimposed a double entendre of those words (very hard to explain, but it was funny!) -- are almost scarier than the pain. The pain I can deal with because I know it will end. The weird stuff makes me wonder if I'm going crazy and I'll never go back to "normal."

 

I have looked into Botox for my migraines, but the doctor said that I don't get them frequently enough.  I get them once every three months or so, sometimes longer -- I haven't had one in six months, but now I've had two in the past 10 days. I'm under a lot of stress with the move at the moment, so I'm not totally surprised, and I've had some family drama recently because... holidays. I'm hoping that it's only two in this cluster. In the meantime, no booze and no caffeine until further notice, and I have delegated all cheese-eating to my fiance, which is sad because I bought half of an entire Stilton!

My friend Miranda who was drunk posting on FB after the election asking if I knew any American men looking for a bride because she wanted out of the UK. But now she's sober she says she isn't interested in moving to America after all and would prefer to use her Spanish passport (her mother is Spanish) and move to the south of France instead. The food is better there, she says, and she finds the climate agreeable.

I think she would score high on the hot/crazy matrix. There is a reason she is 34 and she has yet to have a relationship that lasted longer than six months. She looks like a bit like Taylor LaShae with a smaller chest (sorry), and is extremely bossy. She and Al went out for three years and he absolutely couldn't stand her at times, but kept going back for more partly because resistance was futile. (She is the ex he was hiding from behind the sofa when I met him -- I know I mentioned that before.) They argued ALL the time at very high volumes, and I couldn't ever figure out why he would go back for more when she was so infuriating to him. (I am older now, and understand a little more about how good sex can make you do extremely dumb things!  ) But we're all friends now -- it was a long time ago.
