You just have to live with it.

My doctor says, 5 years post breast cancer, you just have to live with it.

My fingers and toes are still numb in places and I tend to drop things- you just have to live with it.

If I walk too much (which is very little nowadays) my toenails start to lift- you just have to live with it.

My heart went off on an Atrial fib tangent which scared the hell out of me for a few minutes. You are still on the Sotalol and while scary, as long as the heart doesn't beat out of control for too long- you just have to live with it.

My neck glands feel swollen- No temperature, no sore throat, you just have to live with it.

My lymphodema arm is annoying but seems a bit better when the weather is colder- you just have to live with it.

My arthritis in my other thumb hurts like a b*tch during Winter- Apart from Panadol, you just have to live with it.

My skin will not tolerate sun at all any more and it hurts to go in the sun - keep sunscreen on and you just have to live with it.

I have no energy any more - get more exercise and you just have to live with it.

My brain is off, and I forget things and cannot seem to have the brain power to plan things - See a psychologist and you just have to live with it.

When I dry myself around my neck above the breast area, it hurts - hmm could be another skin cancer, we'll biopsy another day but come in again for a full body skin check first.
Hey, at least he didn't say you just have to live with it! LOL
