Re: Re: Dr. Appt Tomorrow

I take it with breakfast,lunch,supper and before I go to bed(8,12,5 and 11), I try an hold off as long as I can before I go to bed as it is the longest period of time between doses as long as I stay consistent I feel incredible.
I know you have been told before Jan but I don't think you can hear enough of how much it is appreciated that you have put this site together and the work you do to keep it running

Re: Re: Dr. Appt Tomorrow

HI John... Do you live in Halifax? I am so envious!!! I love Nova Scotia! I spent A LOT of time there. Westjet has good prices so I go back and forth a lot and stay with friends while I am there. I went to Nova Scotia 4 times in 2006 alone and then was just there for 2 weeks in Feb. The east coast rocks!!! :)

I am moving to halifax (hopefully!) in september. I live in Kamloops, BC right now. In Feb me and a friend went to the ECMA's ... and OMG did we ever have an amazing time!!! But I have always wanted to move to NS.... while I was there in Feb I was there for 2 weeks. While we were there, we REALLY enjoyed the festivites (lol!), and I confirmed employment and a place to live. I am going back agian in June for a couple of weeks, just to make sure that everything is set up to go, and also to go to the Tattoo in July. I will be taking a 6 month LOA from my job here in BC in Sept, just to make sure I can support myslef financially in NS as I will be making a lot less there than I do here, and really the cost of living will be about the same for me as I will be living in metro.

Is that doctor taking any new patients? I know it is a little early to be checking, but I am just curious. And where is he? And also... kind of a stupid question.... but when I am there would you like to go for coffee? I have never talked to anyone with MC before, except my dad. And he has a much more mild form of it than I do, so I cant really talk about it with him.... cuz, well... being the over protective father he is... I hope you know what I mean. lol! And he doesnt take medication for it at all, actually he only found out that I do this last week with this crazy flare up! But I would just love to talk to someone with the same experiences. If you actually live in HRM that is...

cheers ....

Twila I would love to meet you for a coffee anytime!! I have never met anyone with MC either. I think he would see new patients as what we have is pretty rare. N.S. is a great place to live I love it here and will stay here for ever (with a place down south too LOL). Do you need to stay in the Metro area or can you stay just outside as the price of living drops a bit....most places just outside have public transportation and the city is very accessable I live 15 mins out in Tantallon, by the way Dr. David King is on Dresden row just off Spring Garden.

Look forward to meeting you
Cheers
