My original medical problem is solved :)
Over a month ago, I think, I went to see my doctor for a sore throat that lasted a few months. As most know from my previous post, I went in with a sore throat and came out with high blood pressure and high cholesterol. But, nobody could tell me why I still had a sore throat.
If you check webmd or other medical sites for sore throats that last months, no answer is good. And I admit, my wife and children were worried. So yesterday I saw a ear, nose and throat doctor. He stuck a scope up my nose and down my throat. It ends up being nothing more than acid reflux  WooHoo |

Glad to hear the lingering sore throat wasn't anything serious.
Not sure what they put you on to lower the BP and cholestoerol, but the roomie is on Caduet. It's a single med that has both Norvasc and Lipitor. Since it's one med instead of two, he only pays a single co-pay when he gets the script refilled. |

I figured out a long time ago that my medical problems were beyond hope... oh wait, we aren't talking about mental issues.
I too, just as both my parents, suffer with acid reflux. I just eat a lot of antiacid, Tums or Rolaids, tablets. |
