New mesage boards

<t>Hi everyone, guess I should check these boards more often, having turned into what Kath calls a "lurker". I have this site on my favorites and was surprised when I clicked on it to find page not found. I thought, now what did I do as I'm always forgetting my password. <br/> <br/> Change is good. ...

I had forgotten just how much a little one can weigh on an erb's arm. After about a half hour, I was just about to a...

Re: Is this carpel tunnel or arthritis?

<t>A few months back, I got tired of my pink and ring finger going numb and asked the dr about it. Back for another emg (hate them)<br/> It turns out I do have carpel tunnel in both hands/wrists, but it has nothing to do with the pinky and ring finger. The emg tech said the thumb and other two finge...

Re: Filing for SSD / SSI Question from UBPN Please help

<r>I thought I would send somewhat of an update on my disibility case. I finally got another hearing, my 4th judge and my second remand. They had an expert medical doctor, and expert psychologist along with the career expert. The judge asked the dr where he would classify me or under what heading. T...

Re: Did any of your tests show new trauma?

<t>I had an emg done 3 or 4 months back and it didn't show any new trauma, just carpel tunnel. Nor did the emg I had 10 years ago. Like you, they told me it should not be hurting worse or be causing problems and just kind off left it at that. What many of the drs I've been to have told me, is that m...

Re: Iquesions about BP on the Brain

<t>Gee Kath,<br/> <br/> It's nice of you to put "more" on my plate. In school I was what they now call a social butterfly. I was never in my seat and talked a lot (which by the way I still do if you have not noticed) my teacher which I had for two years in a row in grade school actually put talking ...
