We ended up buying one of those that comes with 3 phones and 3 bases, but only one needs to run into the phone jack. I believe it is a vetech phone. We have had it for months now and love it. Plus with 3 phones, as long as you hang them up, you never will have a dead phone.

We have a Uniden phone ~ it has a phone/answering machine plugged into the wall and then a cordless base. We've had a few years and have had no troubles or complaints with it.

Mine's a Vtech w/ 2 handsets, ans mach, and it's great.

There's a great site which lists what's on sale for all the stores in a particular state.

Not sure what state you're in but for Calif the url is:

www.salescircular.com/ca.shtml

For Arizona it's www.salescircular.com/az.shtml

So just put in your state's abbrev and scroll to Phones.

All I did was see what's on sale then search that model & "reviews" to make sure no1 had horrible things to say about it, since I think the technology is mature enough that just about any company CAN make a good one.

I had bad luck with Uniden, but I know others have not. I love my Panasonic.

I loved the Panasonic set we had at the office -- it was great. We have a vtech that I bought about 8 months ago -- with the three handsets -- and two out of the three already have batteries that have burned out. We're actually good "battery people", too :lol: Seriously, we do all the right things -- even though with the NiMH batteries they aren't supposed to have memory problems. Who knows . . . if 100 people buy them and ONE is going to go sour -- guess who it will be???!!! <_<

I purchased Panasonic however this happened: I callled home from work and my husband couldn't hear me...only when I called from work phone...when I called home from my cell it was Ok. I brought the Panasonic back.

Now I bought a Radio Shack and it is like two tin cans and a string! Very tin sounding and muffled. I have to return it too.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      You’re raising a very real and very well-documented problem, and you’re absolutely right to be frustrated. Medication labeling is a major blind spot for people with celiac disease, because unlike food, drug manufacturers are not required to clearly disclose the source of binders, fillers, or excipients—even when they may be derived from wheat. That puts ...

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies c...

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease. Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
