Have they ever done a sinus culture on you? sm
There's a possibility that they are giving you the wrong antibiotics or just not a long enough course. Also, it coud be a fungal infection, in which case you would not need an antibiotic, but an antifungal drug. Sometimes when the infection is long term or persistent, you need to be on medication longer than the usual 7-10 days. Good luck.
No culture, only it it does bust then we are to
take her to the hospital to get a culture. The thing is, this is the third time, each time a different diagnosis, and each time antibiotics took care of it. I honestly don't remember what the other antibiotics were.
Culture shock?...sm

Leaving a major metropoliatan area in Upstate NY and moving to seriously rural area in South Central KY was quite a culture shock....The entire road in front of our house was gravel up until a coupla years ago....finally got city water too!  It's a very small town without even a stop light....just a K-8 school and post office.  The boys begged me for 3 years to take them back to civilization.  It took that long to assimilate.


I went to work 40 miles away and wiggled my way into MT after having worked in a large vasc surg ofc in NY.  I've met a lotta nice folks over the years here from all walks of life and finally learned how to make a decent jam cake and cornbread (not sweet).  Cat  


 


   


If you understood their culture...
you would be more enlightened as to how dates and names are said, rather than complaining about them. Really not anything to get that irritated over.

definitely normal kid culture reaction

Remembering standing outside waiting at the Brooklyn Fox for the following groups at one time or another way back when:


Little Anthony and the Imperials


Martha and the Vandellas


The Shirelles


Otis Redding


Little Stevie Wonder (he was 13)


Smokey Robinson and the Miracles


The Ruffin Brothers (David and.....cannot remember the other one's name at the moment)


The Thymes (later on)


before the British Invasion music which them some of us started appreciating......and going ape waiting for the Beatles at 54th Street at the Warwick Hotel, 500-1000 young girls on the 4 corners of that intersection mobbing taxicabs....*LOL* - those were the days....


 


There is still an *underground* rollerdisco culture that - sm
still exists. You can find it in San Francisco, Venice Beach in L.A., Mission Bay in San Diego, and Central Park in NY. And in parts of Europe it's still pretty huge. Especially London, with nighttime events and Sunday discos on Serpentine Dr. in Hyde Park. Definitely a *niche* kinda' sport, but it's fun and a major workout, as well. There is also *jam-skating*, done mostly at rinks, which is more of a hip-hop/breakdance style.

For me it began as inline-skating (which I still do), which led to conventional skates and disco skating, and eventally to ice skating.

There are 2 events going on in S.F. tonight: Roller disco on the waterfront, hopefully till about 1:00 AM, and a wild-n-wooly street skate through downdown S.F. - thru traffic, up and down hills, thru tunnels, etc., with wheeled boom-box musical accompaniment. It's not only great way to see the sights of our beautiful city, it's also a way to BE one of the sights, as well.
:D
So we should now ALSO be experts on every foreign culture?

I did NOT blame his culture-reading problem?

I gave the freshest stats at the time this a.m. - that he was a 23 y/o Korean boy....


only thing i stated about Korea and their culture was that in the schools they teach antiamericanism and I'm not blaming the culture, I'M STATING A FACT.


Geesh........


Just a sad, sad day. Two pop culture icons die - Farrah and Michael Jackson.

I grew up with Michael Jackson.  Used to watch the Jackson 5 cartoons in the 70s when I was a little kid.  Then bought his first solo album, Off the Wall.  Was watching the Apollo special when he moonwalked for the first time on stage.  Bought Thriller as a teenager in the 80s and was just a huge, big-haired fan.  It's like a part of my childhood just died.


And who can forget Farrah?  I loved Charlie's Angels.  Remember when she came back to acting after Charlie's Angels in the Burning Bed?  Who knew she was more than just a sex symbol on a poster?!?!?!  She fought such a courageous battle against her cancer. 


American or Asian Indian? Culture difference might explain his odd behavior.
