Guest guest Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 Clora, Glad your tolerating the med, I'm hoping it will really help you. I know your hurting now, just give it a bit. Glad your bite is doing ok, it's always something, isn't it? Just be careful, you can never be too careful. I've been noticing a lot of big spiders around here, they are scary, eek! We have lizards too, and they really scare me. I'm sure I scare them a lot more,lol It's so hot, and they try to run in the house, when you open the door. A few have found their way in, and oh what a time to get it out of the house. Anywho, you take care of yourself, and feel better soon, Tawny > > ......... .....BARBARA....TAWNY...Group..BETH > . > . > *******Group, I am so glad they caught this infection Nae.
