Hi Jenn!

I went back to your first post here to see if I could get to know you a
bit, but you didn't say too much back then.

I am 35 and have Psoriatic Arthritis.  I didn't know that when I came
here for the first time though.  They just kept saying I had a
Lupus-like illness.  I also have Auto-immune hearing loss which falls
into an unknown category.

That generic Prilosec is great stuff.  Can you get on that for your
reflux or is it an insurance/doctor/money issue?

Did the Cellcept cause your lung problems?

Well, dear, with the kids getting out of school, that makes your hubbys
new hours sooooo much sweeter.  How many kids we talkin bout anyway?

Hugs4u,
Maggie

Hi Jenn,

I'm glad you're feeling better.  I was using Zantac until it was
virtually doing me no good.  They started me on Prilosec a few months
back and it's the best stuff I've ever used.  If you can and the doctor
okays it, you can try some of the over-the-counter Prilosec.  It may be
cheaper than the generic via prescription.  I've seen it being sold on
eBay too. lol!

Hugs,
Maggie
