MDJunction to me

suebaby41"I was recently diagnosed with Recurrent Breast Cancer In The Chest
Wall. I would not be able to handle it as well as I am without the
help of my MDJunction friends. It just proves to me that there are
lots of good people in this world and I am happy to be involved with
MDJunction who seems to have most of them.

Lainey, I can recommend an over-the-counter cough syrup that's very good at quieting a dry cough like that. It's called "Delsym" and it's a 12-hour per dose treatment. It doesn't have anything else in it. Just the cough suppressant. Nothing to make you sleepy or anything.

Glad to hear that work will be an easy-goer for you today.

Hang in there -- you see your tdoc. and pdoc, soon. They'll be able to help!

I tried Tynelol cold last night. It worked with 2 benedryl. I can't take the mucinex at night cause it makes me stay awake. If I am still having this bad cough, I will try it. I get confused with all the letters tho. DM D CM etc.

There's only one kind of Delsym. It doesn't have any extra letters. And you can take it with Mucinex. I've used that combo. on Richard's colds when he's been sick and it worked very well.

How long have you had this cold? Do you have a temperature?

Hi, Ladies. I am home from work with a sick baby girl. Teacher called me and I had to go get her. She is sleeping now. How is everyone here?
My friends call me Dani.

Sometimes I lie awake at night and I ask, "Why me?", then a voice answers "Nothing personal, your name just happened to come up."

Are the ones who love beyond all faults
Cry behind closed doors
And fight battles no one knows about.

Anyway...just the dentist for you today?

I've heard that people with past abuses have a real hard time with the dentist. Something to do with not being able to get away from the danger.

I used to have a hard time with dentist until I told her. She now cleans my teeth and does everything else. I can't have the hygentist work on me cause I freak.
