RE: [QUAD-L] Collidial Siver--UTI Clear and other alternative UTI treatments
I have an indwelling
catheter and I have been taking Colloidal Silver for the past 3 years and it
has dramatically reduced the amount of UTIs I get.
Cheers

RE: [QUAD-L] Collidial Siver--UTI Clear and other alternative UTI treatments
I se the Bard
cath that is coated in silver. They seemed to help some. But I still was
getting them often. Do I started a low dose of antibiotics daily. I know that
is not a great Idea, but I was just getting them too often. I was about the get
one of those bladder augmentation, but tried the antibiotics as a last chance
thing. Its worked great. In 2 years I havent had a UTI.

[QUAD-L] cooking today
We have something in common. Sunday will be my 8th year. It doesn't seem like that many years have gone by in one sense,,and in another,,the years have lasted forever I guess it is how we look at them. I try to look at life in a positive way,,no matter what is going on,,after all we are still alive, and being with family. My oldest son drove in this morning traveling from Ft Wayneon his move to Lake Charles, La. We are having all the kids over tonight and having gumbo. It is the first time we have all been together in a year. I am wondering if they remember what the date is ??? Anyway,,got my chair out of the shop on Thursday just in time to cook !!! Kathy
Re: [QUAD-L] cooking today
Congratulations on your 8th anniversary. I'm so pleased you're getting to spend the evening with your family cooking and that your wheelchair is back from the shop, especially with your special day tomorrow. We have to look at things as positive and be glad each thing is behind us. Sometimes the years roll slowly when we are having difficulties. I don't think anyone remembered my 32nd the year, unfortunately that is normal I think. Everybody has so many things going on in their own lives. I hope you have a wonderful evening cooking your gumbo.Dana We have something in common. Sunday will be my 8th year.

Re: [QUAD-L] Aids stealing your meds
Hi Mark...I am a caregiver myself. If your aid is addicted to pain meds then you need to find someone else. Sounds like she is there to feed her habit. Your needs should come first. There is good help out there. Does she work though a company? If she does then you need to notify them. She should not be working on drugs. She is responsible for your care. If you hired her privately...then you need to have a very frank talk with her. Talk with family memebers who can put your meds in a safe place..maybe leave only a few out in the bottle and hide the rest. Yes, it is a shame that people have to hide their belongings in their own house but it happens. You need to address this problem soon. Not worth being miserable and in pain in your own home. Good luck. AmyRollinOn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Hey People, How many here have an aid that steals your pain medication?

Re: [QUAD-L] Aids stealing your meds
Your aide has violated Federal Law Your aide has violated State Law Your aide has violated a Moral Code Your aide has violated a sacred trust with you Your aide has violated a moral code of their job. You now have an civil responsibility to stop this by making contact with your local police department and file a report. You are not the first to have this happen to you and your won't be the last. Your police detective will help you set up a sting to have that person busted. The bust will set into motion some other things. If this person is a registered aide working for an agency, the agency will be responsible for their actions and hiring policies. Let's hope the employment agency will reimburse you for pills, medicine and anything else you have lost to someone who is "Hooked." Funny, but I have no mercy for these kinds of people. They deserve any punishment they receive. Press for charges. Everyone will have more respect for you because you stood up for yourself, in face of the obvious odds. If you don't... who will?

Re: [QUAD-L] Aids stealing your meds
Hey Mark, So sorry you are going through so much pain and especially from somebody you trusted and you thought was one of your best aides. I have similar problems with mind only not with pain meds. Person seemed to take advantage of us especially after they know are vulnerabilities. It seems the only answer is to find someone else as most people don't change. It is something inherited their personalities that we did not recognize initially. I wish you to know the right thing to do and say about the situation although how can you think when you're in so much unbearable pain and it's hard to find somebody to stay with you that long. I will add this problem for you to the prayer I already do for you. Sometime's insurance will give you another if you say you lost. Can you talk to your doctor about this. One time I talked with the police about a aid stealing and they said they would talk to all my aides. The person would not admit anything, and they had already quit.Always,Dana Hey People, How many here have an aid that steals your pain medication?

Re: [QUAD-L] Aids stealing your meds
You are not helpless in this situation. DO NOT confront her yourself. There are counselors from the DA's office that can check out the story gather proof. That is the most important thing to have. Do you have a camera that you can have aimed towards the safe?Where are you living?KK
Re: [QUAD-L] Aids stealing your meds
Mark, what type drugs does she take ? probably Vicadin or Valium huh ? seems many want those...I have a few relatives and friends that seem to think if they have pain or need meds that i should just give them some lol.It is hard enough buying what I need myself.

Re: [QUAD-L] Aids stealing your meds
Hello, Mark I totally understand this problem. The solution I came up with was to have trusted family or friends keep most of the prescription and only keep 3-4 days worth in my apt. Good luck with this very frustrating problem. Tracy
