    Am I being selfish?

    I say go for it and stick with what you love. Why have worked SO hard at school and wind up not working in the place you LOVE to work?

    acid reflux

    There are lots, but what works varies person to person: Pepcid, Prilosec, Prevacid, Nexium, Zantac, etc. You sort of have to try a few to find what helps the most for you

    Not Scandi Shakes....Any Ideas?

    I drink vanilla Ensure Plus with ice cubes. The ice cubes help with the thickness of the drink and makes it easier to drink. I never found the flavor bad, it was the thick texture that turned me off to them, but with ice they are really good.

    No more anonymous posting

    I noticed today that no anonymous people have posted since I got home from school... and that a few new member have popped up. Is anonymous posting gone? I was a supporter of that for awhile, I was just curious if it has been changed.

    lung transplants

    Out of curiousity, does the problem of antibodies in the blood arise with every post-pregnancy transplant recipient? Was yours a special situation, or is this true of any child bearing woman who goes for Tx?

    Zinc is supposed to help with colds. Try Zicam, a zinc nasal spray supposed to help shorten the duration of the cold. Also, stay hydrated!<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I was just thinking about what I had in my lunches. Cheez-Its are pretty high calorie, so I had those. I...

    CF for dummies

    Ditto what Mockingbird said. Also, since Maya is only 8 months, and this is her first encounter with staph (I believe?), it is probably a very 'weak' staph, meaning that a lot of antibiotics would be effective against it.
