Was testing to see if I could post. Tried to reply to another poster. Must have not did it correctly. Anyway, I am starving, on liquid only, getting ready to endocscopy tomorrow at 12:30, that's a long time. I just had a can of chicken broth and some White grape juice. Any ideas?

Has anyone ever had allergy testing before? sm
I have had allergies for years now, but they seem to just get worse every year. I only have trouble from spring to fall. Okay all winter. I have tried every allergy med on the market with no relief. I have used over the counter stuff, Claritin, Clarinex, Allegra, nasal sprays and am now on Zyrtec D b.i.d. I had a Kenalog injection about a month ago, which usually helps me get throught the summer. I usually get the Kenalog and take my allergy pill and for the most part can get by with minimal symptoms. This year it is like I am on nothing!! I have never had allergy testing before. I would appreciate any input on what has worked for you..or if you have had the testing done. Thanks! 
allergy testing-----sm
I just had allergy testing done in March of this year. I had also had it done years ago and was expecting the 100+ sticks on the back. But, I was pleasantly surprised. They had this contraption that had 10 prongs on it and each prong stuck down into the allergen bottle. They then pulled out this contraption and mashed in on my arm and that did 20 "sticks" at one time. They did 3 sets of those and it really was not bad at all. I am now on my 3rd vial of buildup and will be able to give myself my shots after that. I developed sinus polyps during my last pregnancy and had to have sinus surgery last year. The doctors told me that if I didn't get my allergies under control, that the polyps would most likely come back. The shots have helped me a great deal and I can tell a BIG difference.
Just me, but, I wouldn't wait.
Take care!!
has he ever had allergy testing?
my son takes allergy shots and it seems to help him. he doesn't have to take his Zyrtec as often. We also have plastic covers on the mattresses. I don't think the air purifier really helps him a whole lot b/c he is allergic to every allergen they tested him for.
I don't have a DNA lab or the money to pay for DNA testing.
How about a lie detector test for mom and dad instead?
This drug testing is going too far - sm
I don't do drugs and I do know that there is a huge drug problem in America but turning around and testing for drugs for every single thing is going a bit far. Not everyone who is unemployed does drugs. In fact I can bet the people who are unemployed are probably using the money for basic necessities of daily living (food, shelter, electricity).
My dad (72 years old) is collecting unemployment and if he had to take a drug test to get his check that would be horrible. He's the most honest decent human being I know of.
A lot of people who collect unemployment don't do it because they want to, they do it because they have to. A lot of them are going through depression and then to turn around and have to take a drug test like they are criminals?...well why not treat them like crap more and add to the depression they are already going through.
Think this is just another way for government to take control and it is not a good idea. Usually the people who are for others being tested are church goers who think they are "holier than thou".
Bad idea.

Testing is simple
Very complicated subject, but if you are working midnights, sleeping days, or even evenings, you probably are not getting enough sun. The only real way to know is to undergo a 25-hydroxy vitamin D test. If you have insurance and your doctor will order the test, then it probably won't cost anything. If you want to know, have no insurance, and can use a lancet to poke your finger you can get an at-home test from the Vitamin D Council or GrassRoots Health and pay about $30 for the test. The provide the test, two lancets, postage and the test is very accurate. The first time I tested I ordered through my doctor's office and because I had no insurance it cost me $300 but I was severely deficient, a 7 on a range of normal from 32 to 100. Now after supplementation, I am 98. Start reading about deficiencies with the Vitamin D Council and go from there.
Genetic testing...sm
Hey girls!
I just had my annual exam and I was talking with the doctor about my family history of breast/cervical cancer. She mentioned genetic testing and that if I had the gene mutation, then I could have an elective bilateral mastectomy and reconstructive surgery. Just wondering if any of you have any experience with this or what your thoughts or opinions are on this subject.
Thanks!
Whoever did her psych testing at NASA
is going to have some explaining to do. Love has nothing to do with this. She is having delusions, probably hearing voices, the whole bit. I wonder if there is a family history of psychiatric illness. Because it's either that or she started taking amphetamines or had some weird medication reaction. I'll bet the male astronaut is dying of embarrassment.
Anyone have genetics testing after a miscarriage? sm
If so, did the testing reveal any possible reasons for the miscarriage and prevention methods for future pregnancies? Did you get pregnant after that and did you successfully carry the pregnancy?
It's a legitimate question. He was testing the man's
The man said everything in your life you wished for, be it negative or positive.
So, Larry King put him to the test.
If you agree with the general, you have to agree with the specifics.
He said that little girl brought that upon herself with negative thinking.
sounds like he was testing the waters.

Testing to see if this shows. Wonder why no posts on

What's the penalty for testing positive?
How long before they can straighten up and test negative? Does this mean for the rest of their lives, they will never receive any welfare benefits becase they smoked a joint?
Would I the taxpayer have to pay for the drug testing that is performed this one time or multiple times? Would I have to pay more taxes when people are homeless? Would we need more homeless shelters? What would this cost the taxpayers in the long haul? Is every applicant tested? Where is this information for the results of the drug testing stored, in a police database? What type of rehab if the test is positive would be offered, if any? Would the person serve time for being under the influence? Would this cause me to have to serve jury duty more often? Would they also be screened for alcohol? What type of future ramifications are in order if and when they do get a job? Would the prospective employer be notified that welfare was not granted due to drug use/intoxication?
Not an easy task is it?
If you consider SIX MONTHS "extensive testing time"
That's how long the FDA evaluated this vaccine to approve it!!
This is from a great FDA article that gives a lot more information. I'll include the link below.
"The manufacturer has agreed to conduct several studies following licensure, including additional studies to further evaluate general safety and long-term effectiveness."
I can't believe that some of you people would be okay giving this to your daughters when there is NO evidence or studies on long-term effects of this vaccine!!

Had allergy testing and then shots for years -
I am highly allergic to dust mites (off the scale!) and had allergy shots for 4 years. As far as I can tell, it really did no good. I have had no carpet in the house we built for 7 years now, everything in the bedroom encased, run 2 HEPA filters in the bedroom and 1 in my office 24/7, and I still suffer quite a bit. I was retested not too long ago. My test still shows very high sensitivity to dust mites and not really much reaction to anything else (just like before the shots). I know people who have had great success with allergy shots. Unfortunately, I am not one of them. It is worth a try!
Hypothyroidism can cause constipation -- has she had recent lab testing? (n/m)

RE: Has anyone every had positive prenatal testing for Down and then found out everything was fine?

I think I'll call my doc tomorrow and see about allergy testing
Thanks!
she is on a multiple-times-per-week drug testing
Too bad - but If you always do what you've always done....you'll always get what you've always gotten.....if her kids are less important to her than her partying, druggin' ways...well, how one makes their bed is how they get to sleep in it.....no sympathy here....
K-Fed, in particular, stays clean FOR his kids....and I don't like or even know the guy, but I do know he IS the better parent from all that is shoved at us about these 2 and not just these 2 but all these rehab'd at-risk younger people....
oh and please don't think I don't have a heart - no flames - got my own family history of substance abuse that goes decades back...some even died....
But having kids is like G_d giving ya a second chance to GET IT RIGHT!! Some people just don't get it....
JMHO (just my HUMBLE opinion)
last night the tests were back from the "air" testing...sm
They tested the air in the trunk to see if there was really human decomposition. They didn't know for sure but one station was reporting that it was. As of last night they were still waiting on the DNA results of the hair samples from the trunk also. Apparently they can tell if it was from a dead/decomposing body and of course whether or not it was the baby's. Maybe those came back. Oh! The guy who posted her bond said last night that he was going to revoke it. I'll bet that's it.
It was so obvious right from the beginning that she was a lying sack of sh**! First of all, what mother just "looks for" her missing baby for a month without calling the police? or even telling her own mother? Then, what kind of freakin' human being goes out partying just DAYS after her baby is missing????? Not only that but she also had a FEW boyfreinds during it all. Men would be the last thing on my mind and I might be drinking but it sure wouldn't be because of partying. I'd be drinking myself into oblivion and that's only if you could get me out of bed and stopped crying for any amount of time. I wouldn't be able to function if my little girl disappeared. Even with the lame excuse that she gave about some babysitter taking her. If that were the case, then I'd be flamining hot and on a murderous hunt day and night, not even stopping to sleep. I'd find the woman my damn self and put my own justice on her not evening thinking twice about it. I'd spend the rest of my life in prison if it meant saving my baby or avenging any suffering she had gone through!
There isn't even words to explain how I feel about her! That poor baby girl doesn't deserve what she is getting right now, being treated like a bag of garbage and left to rot somewhere!!!! Casey will get what she deserves in prison though, I can almost guarantee that. And I don't mean by the courts or our so called justice system. The women in there will give her the justice she deserves! You can bet on it!
monthly plan her with 10.00 extra for unlimited testing = 30/mo. no msg
