OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

hello ladies hope everyone is doing good. i am feeling a lot better since i started the Prozac, i never would have thought a $4.00 Rx can make such a difference for pain and depression. anita i hope you have a doctor that understands fibro and will treat you with the best medical treatment.

good morning ladies i am glad to say that the Prozac is helping with the pain i did not think it would make that much of a difference. Judy you are right it is used to measure the inflammation in your body and it is used to dx arthritis

donna glad you are feeling better. i went to the rhumy friday he did a bunch of blood work but i have not heard from the results yet and started me on prozac to see if it will help with the pain

good morning everyone, hope everyone has a pain free day. i am going to nashville to the rhumy today. at times i think i have more than fibro, maybe some arthritis. i know it is time for some med change, i have been on some of my meds for 4 years now . has anyone ever heard of implanting hormones in your body, they are made specific for your own body.

Donna hope you get to feeling better soon
