Health stuff
Written 1/30/07 - 1:43 PM, updated (at end of document)
So today I'm not having any luck finding the links I'm looking for. Maybe they think the news bits they keep piping up with on the news isn't newsworth enought to go on their website.
Earlier today on Fox News Live I heard a story of a women who had a 90 pound ovarian cyst removed. Considering I fear something like that being in my future because of my Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome, so I took it to the web to read more and I can't find sqaut. I did notice that most everything on the page was yesterday's stories, so maybe I'll have better luck tomorrow.
The next thing I wanted to find was the video of "Wendy, the Snapple Lady" on Your World with Neil Cavuto. I'm guessing I have to wait on that one too, but it's perfect for another blog post I'm hoping to make soon, regarding prejudice and hate of oversized "fat" people. It's gotten to the boiling point with me. There is nothing I can do short of drastic and rather unnecessary surgery, as I write this I'm distracted by yet another diet ad on TV, I swear those are on every 15 minutes, and sometimes multiple ads per comercial break! Anyway, yes; I'm fed up. I know my real health, as does my doctors. I know what I put in my mouth and I can pretty much bet that you reading this have had much more to eat then me today. The biggest thing is it's not what I put in my mouth. It's my genes and it's my disease. It does however mean that strangers still give me nasty looks if they see me eating a whole wheat bean burrito in my truck. The thought that fat people just shouldn't eat because that is their problem is a very dangerous steriotype that really needs to stop. More to come when I get all these thoughts and links organized and make a real post about it.
And while I was trying to find all the links I'm trying to I also found another link of interest regarding insomnia. After having napped most of the day away and that after a normal 8 hours asleep I was already thinking that I need to get my insomnia in check because it always catches up with me and I end up having days like today and then any chance of a normal sleep wake cycle is all screwed up for quite some time. I've never taken sleep aids beyond something like Tylenol PM so I may take all this info to my doctor. I once had a doctor prescribe coffee to me for the mornings because when I first wake up is always bad, but now that I know the bad morning thing is apart of my arthritis (which is apart of whatever auto-immune disorder I have) and so I'm not sure that will really address it. I usually don't drink coffee because I hate the gittery feeling I get if I drink it when I don't really need it. So here is the link for the news on insomnia.
UPDATES! - 2/1/07
I still haven't found the video for the Snapple Lady, but I was able to record it, so I might work on posting it myself this weekend. I think her statements where very inpowering!
I have now found the blurb on the lady with the ovarian cyst though, and that article is here
And Mancow talked about that pastor on his show this morning.
