you'd have to speak with the pharmacist, Do you still have the bottle? It should have lot# on it.

Must be good karma. I posted something positive about GVHBikes in another thread, and 15 minutes later Tom emailed me and said my order was shipping.

I have the Rx #. I'm sure they have on file whatever was printed out on the label.

It's unclear to me, however, whether I might uncover anything meaningful to make it worth the effort.

Thanks. It couldn't have been the food, I hadn't eaten anything. I called the doc this morning. She said she's just going to see if things will clear up on their own before prescribing anything else.

That should be easy to do. But being allergic to something isn't the drug companies fault. What you were talking about before are called excipients they are the "extras" in drugs, and can be different from company to company especially with generics, they are often anti oxidents or presevatives and the like. For pills some if it is just filler.

I'm posting a thumbs down for Sage cycles. I would suggest against ordering anything from them.

Yeah I am pretty skinny, pretty much have Andy Schleck's physique (but not his FTP, that's for sure!!).

My wife is on my case to eat more but I am what I am: 6 feet 1/2 inch, 143 pounds.

Come on down to K-Town. Little snow, low overhead, and I need a new doctor.

Ha ha. People here are probably not as tolerate of diversity (and cyclists) as there, though it's not as bad as the stereotypes portray it (the rural south may be a different story).

Bruce Pearl (UT basketball's coach) is Jewish and he has been a town celebrity.

Went out to lunch with some coworkers, who were all complaining about their commutes during the storm wednesday night. Apparently one of them left at 3pm and didn't get home until almost 2am. 11 hours for his normal 1 hour commute. My boss normally has a 30 minute commute and it took him 5 hours.

My commute on the train was better than average. They did not appreciate me mentioning that.

Celebrities aren't usually seen as a threat.

Datlas, I think you would be surprised as to the diversity in the south. Large academic centers (like Ktown) have incredible diversity and are pretty tolerant in general. You might have trouble finding a house of worship (if you are so inclined) but possibly less racism than in the north. At least that is what I have found. Two of my good friends are African American docs. One from Ohio, and the other grew up 10miles from me in NJ. THey both have told me that Oklahoma is LESS racist than where they grew up. Of course there are still occ. neo nazis/KKK etc. but I saw that in Northern NJ as well.

After taking my wife to work this morning I headed over my parents' house to clean off their driveway. I sure am glad that I bought them a snowblower for Christmas.

He is able to walk around much better and he said the bleeding has pretty much quit finally! He is still weak and having troubles sleeping but other than that he is doing much better. Thanks for asking, appreciate it.
