   Hey! I'm on a diet!...What in the world do you people think you are doing to me here? You know I like to cook, and eat! :)

aye Pete, it never ends, huh? I can understand the deductible thing. My insurance plan started over in December & I didn't realize (since I'm under my parents' insurance) and boy was I in for a shock when I went to the pharmacy. Hopefully the delay of your procedures works out for the best. Enjoy the time you have with your boys! hugs, Skeye

Jenna, Sorry I've not been able to respond sooner. Having continuing computer problems. I think it's difficult for many people to understand what we go through, as others have said, but I think it's also a little more pronounced at a young age when others have had so little life experience themselves to have any way to gain a perspective on the experiences of others. Yes, you are being abandoned, but that will happen to you in...

Are there any extended release pain meds out there that anyone knows of.  I started out on Avinza but it didn't work well enough so my doctor switched me to oxycontin.  The oxycontin is $75 per month with insurance.  The doctors office gave me a discount card for it which lowered it to $20 but the card expires 12/31/09.  The doc may give me another card but in case they can't I was just asking if...

WV when my meds had to be changed in my pump no, my dr did not taper me off the meds before putting the new medication in. I don't understand why your dr is doing that. I went from Morphine to Dilaudid and had no trouble. It does take 24 hrs for the old medication to clear your catheter line too in case you did not know that. I see WhiteBeard has responded, I hope you will email him with your questions on the cancer thing. he can help...

OK Suzane you started this thread where is your recipe?????? Come on now give it up.......

I am fuming for you! What a bunch of crap. so you were walking around with a broken bone, no doubt in agony, and now will suffer because of there mishap. I know that suing seems like it will be a huge deal, and that the statute of limitations has run out, but I'm sure a good lawyer could find a loop hole somewhere, maybe the mistake wasn't found in time! I read you're story and I just about flipped out, I would want something...

Well my dear friends and family, I had a rude awakening this morning!
