Nancy,

NB>I thought you said that you DID get the shot... that sounds now like you
NB>didn't... perhaps you'd left out a word...?

  No, I DID get it...my backside told me all about it on the way home.
Never mind "dancing cheek to cheek". 

NB>I sleep on my side also... the wedge still works for that... I have a
NB>10" wedge... we have a waterbed, so the alternate suggestion of putting
NB>the head of the bed up on blocks didn't work for us...   They run
NB>about $40 at a medical supply place... it might be covered by insurance
NB>with a prescription, but I never tried to do that....

  I thought I'd get seasick and drown the first time I tried a waterbed.
Never mind I don't do well in rough waters...that's why I don't slosh
around in a bathtub anymore. <G>

NB>My reflux tends to flare whenever I lie flat, especially if I've eaten
NB>recently... It isn't helped much by the fact that the sphincter muscle
NB>closing the stomach from the esophagus was totally eaten away by the
NB>acid before this was properly diagnosed and I got the right medication
NB>to heal things...

  That's a bummer. When I had the colonoscopy done last year, I had the
upper GI done at the same time. I think I got one for free, and the
other for half price, and only one anesthesia fee.

NB>If I'm drinking tea, it's when I'm eating out, and it is freshly brewed,
NB>whether green tea, Chinese tea, or some sort of special tea with added
NB>milk and spices...  

  I'll drink the tea on occasion, especially if I'm traveling, and the
soft drinks aren't what I like.

NB>... I try to take one day at a time, but often several days attack at once

  Tell me about it.

Daryl
