    Meredith: My husband went thru 3 gastros and no less than 5 Internists/GP's before gastro #4 diagnosed the disease. This took 27 years of adult-onset illness. One GASTRO told him he needed psychological help because the illness was all in his mind. This was in 1994. The years were grueling emotionally and the illness has racked and destroyed his...

    a plastic lunch cooler (Like Playmate) is a must along with picnic ice (those plastic things you keep in freezer). One sugestion is make baked potato at home and keep in saran wrap and re-heat in their microwave in the plastic wrap. BYOB (butter that is). If you can eat tuna - buy it in the single serve foil pouch.

    Then I will take my laptop with me when I go shopping to make sure I have the correct typeof port.

    Paula: Did the gynocologist peform a sonogram of her ovaries? Reason being is that those years while you first start "menopausing" your body can ovulate from time to time and that's how you get the cysts. If they did sonogram (transvaginal type) then she had a thorough check out.

    Nicole: The online menu states that they also have baked potatoes....I do not like "garlic mashed potatoes" and my husband cannot eat garlic (& many spices) ....did they not have baked potato on menu when you went there? How long ago was that visit there? Well again, Bonefish has "garlic mashed potatoes" - no baked potatoes on their...

    Hope your Dad gets his strength back and doctors give him treatment/meds which will keep him from having another episode.

    I have had thyroid removal and have only side side remaining and take Levoxyl every day. But I also have boob/ovary pain due to ovarian cysts that began a few years ago. I am very close to starting menopause and my ob/gyn said it was common in women of this age range to get ovarian cysts (with its accompanying boob pain). Cysts are not necessarily...

    Thank you guys! I am going shopping on Saturday at Staples I am not knowledgable about computers nor printers and I am going to try to install it myself. I had the computer tech install it the first time. I didn't get my first computer at home until just 5 years ago about.

    ARCHIVED Where Should He Go?

    debmidge replied to Donna Dem's topic in Doctors

    If he was ever in military a veteran's hospital might be able to help him. Another suggestion it to call the Social Worker of a local hospital near him and see what programs are out there for the uninsured in NY State. Call State of NY Dept. of Health (might also be Health & Human Services?) and ask them same question.... These are only suggestions...

    This is where consuming gluten-free labeled foods with trace amounts of gluten in them is a personal decison. Now that we know the facts about Rice Dream we have to make the choice for ourselves...obviously other foods labeled as gluten-free may contain trace amounts of gluten. It's a hard decision to make. I guess there's no way around this - only...

    I got rid of an older Rowenta (cheaper model) that I was unhappy with because it dripped water while I ironed and got a Shark ..my opinion of the Shark is that it's too heavy, it doesn't get hot at the lower levels & you have to iron on "high" on all fabrics; you have to constantly run the iron over the fabric many times before the wrinkles are out...

    My Lexmark X85 died and I need to get a new one....any recommendations? I was looking at these brands: Lexmark Epson Brother Cannon HP It's for my home...I am unsure about what "ppm" means and if a higher ppm is a clearer copy or a lower ppm is... and "dpi" is 4800 average or the higher the number the better copy? I so don't know anything...

    We're are going to celebrate our anniversary in a couple of weeks and this is my husband's first venture into a restaurant (other than our anniversary party a few years ago) in 3 years. My question is has anyone eaten in this Outback and what was the experience...? Any comments? Thanks Deb

    Just a suggestion, but Mary Tyler Moore has always had diabetes (type I?) for years...and tell them "guess what!" she wa always slim and a dancer (I believe I heard that she was a professional dancer before she did Dick Van Dyke show). So there, it's not diet, weight, exercise, sugar etc.

    My husband wanted to break our engagement when he first got ill...he was confused, unhappy, depressed, and didn't want to screw up my future. We talked long and it, cried and realized we'd be unhappy apart from each other. We've been married for 28 years this year. I do eat gluten at home and in his presence...he doesn't feel it's a problem and...

    Glad it worked out for you. Please share the name of the restaurant or place. I had excellent experience with The Westwood here in Garwood NJ. They did two parties for me and provided gluten-free food to my husband. If they didn't know about gluten-free before they met me, they know about gluten-free now.

    Avon tends to be gluten-free but they're always coming out with new colors or special lines or special editions & you never know if something has changed -- anyway I have an 800 number for them for you to use on Monday-Friday 1-800-445-2866 Product Info #

    The difference between the Entertainment Park and the restaurant is that the purpose of the Park is to provide rides, games, entertainment and more often than not the food concessions are operated by independent contractors (not people who own the Park). The Entertainment Park wants as many bodies as possible in their park & they really don't care if...

    That's sort of a "don't ask, don't tell" method which can work.

    Their gluten-free menu mentions garlic mashed potatoes...can we get them without the garlic?

    What I am about to say is not because I am not wanting anyone to not have a good time, but I am just sharing what I know about the subject. No affront is intended and it's not intended to hurt anyone's sensitivities....it's being offered in charity and with the desire to share what I know about the topic. I'm not a lawyer, just an insurance person and...
