This happened twice within two weeks. The first time they said I would never get my saved mail back but the techs quickly did. This time it is taking forever. I am 63 and have anxiety and panic attacks, along with degenerative arthritis and all this just exacerbates my problems, so I’ll leave my once favorite company for being treated like a dog.
Also, I never let more than a day or two go by without using yahoo mail and I Never asked to be deleted.

I had a Total Knee Replacement on my left knee 3 years ago. I had some arthritis in both knees. The right knee wasn’t too bad at that time. Now it pains when I bend it & it has some swelling. I have no plans to have another TKR. Would walking help strengthen it or not?

I’ve been diagnosed with psoriases, psoriatic arthritis (which is now severe, the swelling won’t go away, and my finger’s are starting to become deformed and it’s really painful. I’ve also been diagnosed with gallbladder stones. I’ve tried a lot of anti inflammatory pills and none help. My one specialist suggested that I start IV treatment (remicade) but my other specialist refuses to prescribe it and he wants me to start methrotrexate. I don’t know if that’s a good idea since I found out that I have gallbladder stones since I’ve been having attacks for about 6 years and they last more than 6 hrs.My attacks are severe and last 9 to 15 hrs. Even the hospital couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me until now that I’ve been diagnosed (6 yrs later) . I’m only 24 and I’m hoping to get my health back on track. Thank you so much

My grandparents are 74 and 84 years old and reside in Puerto Rico. Problem is they live alone and have nobody to care for them. My grandfather has altzeimers and diabetes and is getting lost and loosing his money constantly. Grandmother has heart condition and can’t walk due to a degenerative arthritis. They don’t have any one to help them with basics like cooking, cleaning and going to the Dr. or leisure activity. Grandmother is willing to move with me but grandfather is scared of moving someplace new. They have been robbed several times because neighbors know they are alone and vulnerable. Is there any way I can legally become like their "guardian" and try and get them to move even beyond my grandfather’s will if Dr. confirms his illness? There aren’t many options for elders in Puerto Rico. Unless you are at your deathbed. Any suggestions?

I have really bad arthritis and I have to take steroids. I try and starve myself, and eat around 400 calories a day, but I’m getting really fat from the drugs. My doctor told me that it was normal, and it will go away when I’m off the meds, but I have to be on them for awhile. I am so embarassed of what people must think of me. It’s embarassing to go out, I am a size 14 now, I used to be a 6. I get stared at when I am in public. I don’t know how to deal with this, it’s not like I can wear a sign that says "I have arthritis, I’m on steroids". I want to look young, like I am, and cute. Not bloated, sick and fat. Help.
Being a size 14 may not seem so bad for some of you, but I am only 5 feet tall. I look like an oompah loompah.
