Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Here's a list of meds you can take,
Link.
There were some posts about eucalyptus oil (dropped in hot water, and breath the vapor) too, good for allergies and stuffy nose, but it'll have to be dug up.
It is best, though to call your dr and ask first.
You're still not a year out, so basically, surgeons will be careful about how you are doing. That way, they can catch early if anything seriousl does develop. Better be sure now than be sorry later.

Hope you feel better soon. (((((HUGS)))))

It is that time of year again for sore throats, colds and the flu. I got my flu shot a few weeks ago and I hope it helps but cannot get rid of these sniffles. My granddaughter just got over a terrible cold.

Hope that everyone gets through the season healthy.

Thanks for the listing for meds...good to go.

Okay so my whole issue has been the phlegm issue, but at least it keeps my appetite under tight control through the holiday season and caused another whooosh on the scale. Reminds me of the quote from Devil Wears Prada about being one good flu away from another size.
