Heavy cream and whipping cream is what your looking

for. The others like 1/2 n1/2 and light are

processed more therefore have more carbs in them.

Try taking 1/2 cream and 1/2 water to make the milk

your loking for the recipe.

Are you eating a lot of salt?? Not enough water??? I am not sure what else it

could be, foods with high salt content will bloat you and so will not

drinking enough water.

Being an adult I have never been treated rude when I tell someone what I

have. Once a lady was ride to me because she thought I was being lazy when I

would not baby sit for her day cae when she went out for the day. She said

" oh to much work for you?? "

I have had people that I don't like as me questions. I used to answer them

Hi Christy,

I don't post too much as I do not have a firm dx yet.

However, I have been taking prednisone on a daily

basis for almost 15 months. My doctor prescribes both

the 5 mg and the 1 mg tablets. I go up and down on

them as my condition dictates. Talk to your doctor,

and God bless! Sharon

Christy, I have been on pred for over 2 years. I also am given 5mg and 1mg

tablets. I adjust according to my needs. When I taper, I have to use the 1

mg tablets and do it very slowly. But when I flare, I use the 5mg. LOL

Hoping to get OFF of this stuff soon. I am at 17mg now.

Hope this helps.

Christy, that's pretty much what I've done, only now at the very beginning of

a flare, he rheumy starts me on 20 mgs of Prednisone for a couple of weeks -

I'm assuming he will wean me off again (I hope, cause I hate being on Pred!)

For my part, I would then question the validity of the

tests. Lab work can be messed up. They are not gods

there either. :-)

Hi Shelby,(another midwestener)

Coverage by insurance is dependent on your coverage, thin ice here Shelby,

got to get a covered Dr. that does good treatment of this disease. It may be

difficult

Surgery is expensive and generally done as a last resort. Keep reading

thisboard for details in everyone's experience

Recovery from Surgery? Recovery from Panc. I think you need much more

information from this board.

,

Good Luck with you insurance. Just last friday I got turned down to the

second time to see Dr. Sutherland in MN. It seems with our Local HMO, the

Auto Eyelet Transplannt it " Too Investigational " . So I called MN and talked

to Anne Marie who gave me the CPT Code for the Total Pamcreatectomy and Auto

Islet Transplant which is CPT Code # 48160. My best advise is to contact

Anne Marie at e-mail address papas001@... and let her know that you

are interested in see Dr Sutherland and ask her what to do about your

insurance. She is very helpful. If you want to call Dr. Sutherland's

Office and ask for her the # is

1-. But I still haven' t given up, as I'm in the process of

fileing a greivence against the insurance as soon as I get more infomation.

Probalby the best way to get to see him is get your local doc. to be very

supportive of you going. My doc. did write a letter to my HMO, but I don't

feel that he has been supportive of this, as he sid that there was any use

to due this. This is my PCP, and he hasn't been supportive of anything I

want to try new, but so far he has given me the refurral when I want to see

another doc, even thru he doesn't think anything will help me. I'm going to

the Cleveland Clinic on August 28th.

to see a Dr. Cromwell. He is the Head of the pancreatic Center, so I'm

hoping he can help. I'll let you know, if he does.

You should sent an e-mail to Shirley, who has has the proceder from Dr.

Sutherland. She will be very helpfuland encourging.

Good Luck and don't get discouraged if they say no at first, just keep more

information and keep after the insurance co.

Take Care,

Louie in WV
