Thank you, everyone, for your support on the board, PMs, email... it meant so much and I can thankfully say that I am going to be fine!

I have a cyst that is basically an 'internal zit' :laugh: don't ask me what it's real name is because it's some big fancy word that I have no clue as to how to say it much less spell it!

I'm just SO VERY THANKFUL that it's nothing that I can't handle! *whew* I have to take some meds for a while, but if it doesn't go away it will just be a bother and I can always have a surgery to take it out (um, that'd be a NO lol I'll 'suffer through')

So I just wanted to let you all know and say thank you again! You all made the waiting easier!

Praise God it's only a cyst.:clap:
I have the same thing. Except I'm battling a little one on my ovary, right now.
I know it's not fun, so I'm hoping it goes down for ya. Stay away from caffeine, if you can. (I need to follow my own advice lol) *hugs*

Great news for you, Toni. Now you can relax a bit. Glad that it can be treated with meds (& surgery if necessary). :party:

Toni, I'm so glad that it turned out fine. Hope the medicine would do so there won't be any need for further action. Take care!

I've been absent Toni, so didn't know of your health scare. I am very pleased and thankful to hear it is nothing to worry about.

As the doctor if you can crush them...I know a lot of times with antibiotics you can't split them or crush them, but it wouldn't hurt to ask.

When I was a kid, my Mom would crush pills on a spoon and put a little bit of ginger ale on the spoon with them. I, too, even as an adult, have trouble with large pills.

no, I know the pills aren't able to do that... already thought of it, but my dad is familiar with teh pills (he's a med tech now lol no more sporting goods for him!) and he just laughs :p he's mean


ok so he's not really mean, he bought me a new lens for my camera yesterday (said it's a bday present, but they already gave me a gift for bday so I think he's just glad I'm okay)

For a while I could not take pills and would have to take them with applesauce. Try that. It seems to help them go down easier.

I find if I chug a soda while taking the pills it's working

I gag, but I think I would no matter what I use...

I can't even swallow Kraft mac and cheese (really soupy) without chewing it to death. It's just the way I function :laugh:
