There's a commercial for a new prescription allergy nasal spray called Veramyst. One of the disclaimers that appears at the bottom of the screen reads "The way Veramyst works is not entirely understood." Does that worry anyone besides me ( Read more... )

4585!!!????? Good Lord Angela, you are so fortunate to be insured. And I feel very grateful for socialized medicine in Canada right now.

How are things going?

Pretty good. Did you get my last email (sent last week, if not the week before)?

Also...in the past few days, Nathan's output has increased considerably. He goes through 15-20 diapers in a 24-hr. period. However, this morning around 8:00 I put 25 diapers in the wash -- he went through all 25 since about 6:00 or 7:00 last night. (Most were wet, but he still has regular BMs.) Doesn't that seem like an awful lot? He is eating normally, I think, and is not acting unusual in any way.

It does sound like a lot of diapers, but perhaps since he is in cloth dipes, you are just being very vigilant. I wouldn't be concerned about it as long as the pooop is nice and yellow, doesn't appear dehydrtaed, and he keeps gaining weight, but of course I have no experience with babies who have undergone such extensive surgery, is this something the docs told you to watch out for? It sounds like he's just making up for lost time and eating tons, which is great!

Angela,
Yay! I'm now "your friend."
I was actually Rx'd Veramyst, and I saw that commercial as well! That bothered me too, and I didn't use it in the first place anyways because some possible side effects were nasal sores or eye infections!!! Soooo---no, I think I'll stay with Nasacort AQ for now. Darn allergies.

I'm glad Nathan is doing good...talk to you later! :)
Melissa

Yeah, sorry it took so long for me to add you... I don't know why I didn't realize it was you. I thought it was some other Melissa stranger-person!

Oh it's all good. I should've told you before.
How are you?
