Funny how backwards Georgia has a centralized Immunization Data base while sophistocated Washington uses faded construction paper. Turned out her 2 spawn each needed 2 shots in order to attend one of Georgia's great public schools. She calls her Seattle Pediatrician's office, gets the shot record faxed, watta ya know, they needed 4 shots.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24021163.post-23770935110496129812008-07-11T11:14:00.000-05:002008-07-11T11:14:00.000-05:00Well looky looky.

I had to watch my brother in law's kids while he was rushed in an ambulance to the CCU in my town from a podunk hospital that had no cardiologist. They thought he was having a really long heart attack, but fortunately turned out to be pericarditis due to previously mentioned enterovirus. He's only 35. He was coming home from vacation at Jackson Hole. I'm not worried about anyone getting pericarditis, I realize that's a fluke of your personal immune system, but the thought of that enterovirus. Nothing's worse than puking and pooping while trying to take care of puking and pooping kids.Amelia Ameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17296224743117560163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24021163.post-89498221450927842592008-07-11T09:18:00.000-05:002008-07-11T09:18:00.000-05:00Frank, There was until recently I think.

Then when I told them the amount they would look at me as if I was scum because I interrupted their precious phone call. They would proceed to talk on the phone for several more minutes while the line behind them got longer and more annoyed. I don't know why it's so difficult to call someone back later . . .<BR/><BR/>As for the measles, I am not surprised either.Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04892778181543416624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24021163.post-48371289111332682662008-07-11T06:33:00.000-05:002008-07-11T06:33:00.000-05:00You Have an Orange Julius where you live??You Have an Orange Julius where you live??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24021163.post-17905214262119289342008-07-11T05:33:00.000-05:002008-07-11T05:33:00.000-05:00Hey, you wanna talk on the phone?Fine , I'll come ...Hey, you wanna talk on the phone?<BR/>Fine , I'll come back later, maybe WAY later!<BR/><BR/>I don't put up with that crap.

I always try to be really covert if I'm on the phone, and hang up immediately if and when a doc or nurse enters whatever kind of medical deal I'm at.<BR/><BR/>Here's a question? What kind of/family of viruses presents with runny nose, sore throat, constant barfing and water butt diarrhea (sorry for the term but it's so descriptive)? Isn't that a weird combination of symptoms? Upper respiratory and gastro? <BR/><BR/>Just curious. TIAAmelia Ameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17296224743117560163noreply@blogger.com
