Guest guest Posted August 22, 2000 Report Share Posted August 22, 2000 fyio, I had surgery Aug 16, 2000 we stayed at Hampton Inn on Hillendale road, durham, nc. for 204.15 for 5 nights. Did you call 1- 877-medstay. They can get the best rates usually. We used priceline.com and chose the higher end hotel and quote 35 dollars per night and got the hampton inn. Just a suggestion if your not locked in on the hotel reservations.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2000 Report Share Posted August 22, 2000 I guess we know who the 'night owl' contingent is, now, don't we? Sorry you've been awakened Dinah. Maybe you should have LT sing you back to sleep. I'm still pre-op, so I have nothing to add but kind words.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2000 Report Share Posted August 22, 2000 Hi Sleepless in Seattle! That could be your egroups name. lol Thanks for the kind words. I'm sipping orange/pineapple juice and I think the headache is easing off. I hope so I had a busy day and I was really tired when i finally went to bed at 11pm. Maybe my blood sugar is falling after I go to sleep at night. Are you scheduled for surger yet?

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2000 Report Share Posted August 22, 2000 Sugar seems like not a good thing to ingest before sleep. I think I'd be more concerned about the headache than the 'wanting' stomach, I think. Is the kind of headache you are having the kind you get after you drastically reduce caffeine consumption? Is your heart racing? Sweats? Have you changed your bedtime recently? You might be reacting to the fact that the operation is over and that stress is gone, kind of like a let-down, you know? Wouldn't I make a lousy ER doc? Judith in Seatle Re: Back from the Bahamas ! > Hi Sleepless in Seattle! That could be your egroups name. lol Thanks > for the kind words.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2000 Report Share Posted August 22, 2000 , I am still in the process of completing my packet and waiting to hear from insurance if they will approve the surgery or not. As I will be coming from the midwest we will need a hotel and a car rental. Do you mind sharing the number for the Extended Stay and for Avis. I just want to have them available when the time comes. Good luck on the 13th - hope it goes well for you.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2000 Report Share Posted August 22, 2000 Hi Tarri ! I wish you the very best of luck on your journey...I am now down to exactly 9 working days...ehhehee I dont count the weekends...cuz I am busy doing my stuff and not work stuff ~smile~ Here is the info that I have for the hotel and car rental you requested: Avis Car rental : 1- Extended Stay America : 1- I hope this helps..and btw..I got my cheap airline tickets thru travel.com and put in my dates and it pulled up all the available stuff. I went to priceline.com where many say they get great deals, and I under bid the quote I got by $50.00 and it was turned down, so I went with the bid I got. Good Luck !
