Wood versus gas, if just using a fireplace
without having an insert or some type of blower most likely you will be better off using another heat source because of the heat loss through the fireplace, unless you aren't using any other heat source. We have gas heat and prices are expected to increase 70%. We had gas logs but had them removed because we couldn't afford to burn them even for the mood affect and that was a couple of years ago.
It is about 10 degrees, snowed all day. Snug in front of the fireplace tonight. sm
I used to live in a large city and I HATED WINTER and the cold. Now I live in a very small town, can walk to everywhere and I love the winter, snug and nice in the house and working...I love it.
Allergic to "cillins."
Is it acceptable to transcribe this as cillins, or is there an exceptable expansion I can use?
Yes, am allergic to their lipstick. Never tried anything else but that and
broke out with blisters on my lips. I am not prone to fever blisters or any of the sort. Dermatologist said I was allergic to whatever ingredients were in it. Never tried it again, use CoverGirl, and never had blisters again!
I'm allergic to my new earphones!!!
I know this sounds nuts (I'm nuts), but my noise-dampening earphones arrived a week ago and I put them on. I should tell you that I have sensitivities to latex and adhesives, but this is not a problem I deal with very often. Anyway, I donned and immediately began getting itchy. I ignored it. Then my ears began to burn. I kept typing like a "good" MT. Tee hee. Then I started getting hives and my throat started to itch. Yikes!! Okay, that got my attention. So I took them off and took a Benadryl. I haven't touched them for this whole week, until today. I tried them again, albeit foolishly, thinking it wouldn't happen again. I was willing to think it was psychosomatic (allergy to work, ya know). Ummm, nope. It all happened again. Oh well, at least Transcription Gear has a 30-day guarantee. Wait until I give them my "reason for return". Crazy. I thought I'd give you all a 'Buyer Beware', 'FYI', and stuff like that... See ya! 
possible allergic reaction to something--sm
You also sound like you think it may be psychosomatic, which is always a possibility, but don't think so. possibly mumps, which is going around again these days. Get to a doctor. soon. jmo
a coworker is allergic to the foam
covering as well. either way they make my ears hurt/red so i put just a tiny bit of cotton from a cotton ball inside each ear before putting on my headset and don't have any problems.
It does sound like an allergic reaction...
What did he eat or drink prior to breaking out? As long as it doesn't get any worse, I would just ride it out. But if it does, I would follow the advice of the other poster.
I'm allergic to the daggon things, but I STILL
Could be Flonase, but that is usually 50 mcg for non-allergic symptoms
Might get more of a response on Word Help board instead
No, but I knew someone allergic to the foam covering.
Might be something to ponder.
I used to use MK foundation, but they changed the formula and now I'm allergic to it.
It makes my eyes water and I can't wear it any longer. I haven't found a foundation that I like as well as the previous MK formula. I wish they hadn't changed it.
They are basically "sister" drugs. I am allergic
to naproxen, so cannot take ibuprofen now, as they are closely related. I would think if naproxen isn't helping, neither will ibuprofen. Try something unrelated like Tylenol?
his next allergic reaction will be quicker and worse.
get thee to an allergist.
It's not unusual for a patient listed as allergic to penicillin to be given it anyway.
Often it's the only drug that will work and the allergy was vague and from so long ago, they deliberately try it anyway. If that had been the case, you'd have more than likely gotten a very negative response.
When I worked for a vet. guy had dog allergy tested and dog was allergic to human dander. No kidding
:I
If allergic to nickel, then avoid green beans, broccoli, peas, etc.
I have that same allergy, had problems with the old metal zippers, snaps, etc.
