Okay so I'm randomly scanning pages here and there for a few more minutes, lol, and came across this. Patti, thanks for caring!!! They are being SOOOOOO very diligent on board about this very tbing. All passengers have to use a hand sanitizer BEFORE coming on board, BEFORE entering the restaurants and buffet and just about every other public place. This... -

Ya mon!!! Greetings from Montego Bay, Jamaica!!!! Had a fun day rafting on a river on a raft (two person + driver, lol) made of BAMBOO (can you say give me a life vest, lol), tour of a banana plantation in a covered tractor pulled jitney (ask me anything about bananas when I get back, lol), and eating some really good Jamaican barbeque and rice and nice... -

Hi everyone....haven't gone back to read up, but just wanted to say hi from somewhere in the Caribbean! It's a sea day today, our first stop is tomorrow at Montego Bay, Jamaica. So far today, I've eaten twice, lost $18 in the casino and just went shopping, and it's only 11:00 a.m. here. I think we'll eat again in a couple of minutes. Bye for now. -

Julie, yay, that sounds promising...I know what you mean about going over everything...they always look at me like and say, well what are your most troubling symptoms--I don't know if I've ever been able to tell anyone my WHOLE list. Andrea, it always takes me a few days to fully catch up on missed sleep...that's one reason why we're flying in tomorrow... -

I am SOOO happy I have my heated mattress pad, lol, us wimpy Californians need stuff like that...can I just say that I am REALLY looking forward to the WARM Florida sun, lol. Okay, it may rain, but at least it will be warmer than here. -

Definitely the whole-shebang stool testing thing...the one with all the vials, lol. It's icky to do, but that's where they look for all the parasites...I'm still waiting for mine to come back. In the one I had done in February, I also had to give them a sample (in a margerine-type container that they provided), but didn't have to do that for the one I just... -

Well, I actually don't know how to swim, lol. I forget what we're doing in Grand Cayman and Cozumel, but we've been to both places and I'd almost rather stay on the ship and sleep in, lol. Not that I don't like either place, it's just that I'm so tired lately and I've already been there, and I'll probably be there again since almost every caribbean cruise... -

I'll try to keep it sane...last cruise I took 330 pictures. This time my friend has a new digital camera, so I may let HER take the pictures, lol. I haven't been disappointed yet! You can do as much or as little as you want, that's what's nice about them. And, when you get better, there's all the food you can possibly want! If you eat in... -

Hi and welcome! How nice of you to do that for your 2nd mom! I don't cook, so really can't offer any recipes...just make sure you don't use any wheat, oats, barley or rye or any products that contain them. You might also want to use either dedicated utensils or make sure they are very well sterilized. Some people react very strongly to even the tiniest... -

Exactly what I needed. I've decided, no singing, no working out...just relaxing...maybe my neck will improve a little, lol. No worries, I think I can handle that, lol. I no doubt will, lol...what could be better than having nothing more to do than eating and sleeping! Eating will be slightly more challenging than my... -

Rachel, you aspiring BioSET lady you, lol...the bowl thing sounds, um, weird, lol, but I suppose it makes sense...the water will "catch" whatever is floating around in there. What about at your mom's house too? I also find it hard to believe you are the only one who hasn't responded...just hang in there kid, they'll most likely have TWO once I get in... -

FRIDAY!!! I leave Friday...at 4:30 a.m., lol. Actually my plane leaves at 6:20, but the taxi is picking me up at 4:30 (well, hopefully). And, the thing with the chiropractor...some are MDs too...I think that's why they would be able to. I've seen two that were also MDs and could prescribe. -

And a great job you did at it! I hate to think what it will be like when I get back from my vacation, lol. I may try to log at least once or twice from the ship...we have several sea days where there's not much to do except relax...course getting a computer on sea day will be a challenge, lol. It sounds like you had a very nice time with your dad.... -

Ha, well I ACTUALLY called the BioSET people today, but they had an answering machine on...I left my name and number and a message that I wanted to set up an initial BioSET appointment. No one called back. I was going to make the appointment for the week after Christmas...oh well, lol, I tried. -

The more I think about this the more stupified I am, lol. Definitely MAKE them do one...a complete one...I had to fill about 5-6 vials over 4 days, plus do a card. YAY, Andrea is back!!! My ears seem to be better. Jaw is too...I am thinking they were related and it was because of the long dental appointment I had on the 15th. I have another one... -

dlp252 replied to Helena's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Yep, I agree. I had strep last October and wouldn't let the doctor give me the antibiotic she wanted to (augmentin) because I had been on it nearly continuously for 3 years...she gave me a different kind, but it didn't take the infection away like augmentin would have...I then developed an ear infection and a sinus infection and ended up having to take the... -

Oh my word!!!! My blood pressure is so darned low to begin with...I think this might really do me in, lol! I think I'll ask they how many vials they intend to take BEFORE they begin....then I can have them knock me out first, lol...that way I'll already be down and won't have to embarass myself by passing out.
