Ask your MD for Fluticasone. It's a nasal spray. It coats the sinuses and doesn't allow allergans into your nasal passages. It works. I've been allergy free for 7 months!

Topic: "Supeize" a TV Show in England
The "Supersize" TV Show (which airs in England) film crew came yesterday.
Yes they show up at 10:00 AM looked over the house and set up for the interview part. We finally started the interview filming at about 11 AM but had to pause for cars, people & planes going by as the sensitive microphones picked up every little sound. Even the a/c, fans and fridge had to be turned off. We had to shoot each question several times and with re-structuring my answers. 2 hours worth for a 15 minute segment. Then we shot me using my Bi-pap oxygen pump, taking a shower, cooking & eating and final several 360 shot of my entire body. And a little bit outside showing where I live. All together 5 Hours.
Now they go back to England and interview a guy over there that's life is very closely resembles mine in being obese. But he needs motivation to get healthier. Which my segment will do. After that, they will show him my segment then surprise him (all while taping) by telling him their going to fly him to Tampa Bay to meet me. We'll probably even go to Sweet Tomatoes or somewhere that will allow taping to be done.
Then they'll go back to England putting it all together to show on their program there. They did say we could go to a webpage for channel 4 in the United Kingdom. We could read about the "Supersize" Show but if you live outside of the UK you can't see the videos of past shows.
And yes I did get a nice check for my 5 hour interview.

Topic: RE: Need a new surgeon ASAP!
Hi Misty,
Thank you so much for the post. I had found Dr.Domkowski online & was going to call to see if he accepts band pts that he did not do. You have no idea how helpful you have been. Thanks again.

Thanks for the information. The pharmacist gave me Claritin for the allergy then sudafed for the nasal congestion. I just didn't want to have any side effects from taking them. I made sure they weren't time released.

I have been fighting mine like crazy!! I finally started taking Zyrtec daily to help with mine. I've had no problems at all taking it. I use the Walgreens generic version for almost half the price. Regular Sudafed the red pill 4 hour works great also, behind the pharmacy counter.
