Steph Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Okay, how weird am I? Yeah, I set myself up with that one, didn't I. lol When I have a sore joint -- as I have now -- and stretch it out, it often makes me burp! From my current elbow issue down to a sore toe joint. *burrp* What's up with that? Am I the only one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbobam Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Absolutely not! The exact same thing happens to me! On the other hand, a painful joint has always been a good excuse for me to say "Think I'll have a few beers!" soooo........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted September 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 The toe bone is connected to the digestive tract? I don't remember that being how the song went .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbobam Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Everything is connected to the digestive tract! Okay, that's not completely true. But it's 'truer' than most people think. Honestly, I'd recommend that anyone who hasn't 'experimented' with probiotics give them a shot. You might be amazed by a noticeable improvement in your overall sense of 'well-being'. The best way to do this is to make 'live culture' fermented foods at home. Like yogurt, pickles, or sauerkraut. But the overpriced little bitty containers of yogurt or pills from trusted manufacturers are also good if you can afford them. ( : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 It seems our microbiome becomes more important every day. It's actually a very hot area for research. Ever heard of fecal transplants? No kidding man, a nasogastric tube no less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbobam Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 New one on me! Geesh, that sounds like it would be somewhere pretty near 'colonoscopy' on the official 'Patients' Favorite Procedures' ranking! ( : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted September 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 The elbow pain has healed in a way, and become more convincing in another way. So good news/bad news. The general pain has subsided. Now I can feel a particular location on a particular bone, below the joint in the forearm. Can lift a little, but not twist or pull. And when I when I push the limits ... like by holding a pot as it fills with water ... I think I reinjure it ... so when will I stop doing that? This paragraph seems to describe where my issue is: "Our forearm contains two long, parallel bones: the ulna and the radius. The ulna is the longer and larger of the two bones, residing on the medial (pinky finger) side of the forearm. It is widest at its proximal end and narrows considerably at its distal end. At its proximal end, the ulna forms the hinge of the elbow joint with the humerus. The end of the ulna, known as the olecranon, extends past the humerus and forms the bony tip of the elbow. At its distal end, the ulna forms the wrist joint with the radius and the carpals." http://www.innerbody.com/image_skelfov/skel20_new.html Pretty sure it's my ulna ... since pain seems to be connected with pinky involvement as opposed to work involving the index finger and thumb. And it would make much sense for the problem to be at or near the olecranon. I don't remember ever studying the skeleton! Hey, I love to learn and this is a memorable lesson.

Steph Posted October 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2015 Ugh ... took apart the plumbing under the kitchen sink. Much twisting was involved -- used both hands. Elbow felt fine last night. But overnight it became inflamed again. Yum. Is this what arthritis sufferers live with on a regular basis? But in positive news, four days ago I ran my first straight mile. And two days ago I ran my second. Booyah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lstmmrbls Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Did some yard work today wore the wrong shoes, bent down to give them a good massage and I did not burp. You all, already know what did happen (LOL) Sorry Steph, but you did start this thread (LOL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted October 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 I know not what you mean. There is only burp in my world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted September 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Got out of the habit of running ... no surprise, eh. But I've done a little here and there and it feels comfortable. Did a half mile easy today. Then walked a bit. Then maybe did another quarter. No burps. Maybe a little heartburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Eating fast makes you burp. Getting slapped on the butt right after you're born does the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
