I don't know - I'm not hysterical Or nervous, just posting whats on the news......... Like I said I guess it's all about where you come from. NY is reporting more cases, Having 150 kids going home sick in one day and a school getting closed for 2 days... Is NOTHING to take lightly

MY mistake I wrote Doctor, I spoke to the office they gave me the website. Also I have read like the above post says, that many people go to Doctor Ren's office and many people don't get filled by Ren but her RN, So I was OK with it I have a few more doctors to look up - Just thought I'd pass the little bit of info that I got along I didn't ask about Flouro, But have read that a lot of placed don't do flouro all the time, So It just maybe that I'll have to do a fill or two with out Flouro.

I can't even send away for one - cause you have to send them your BC and they mail it back with the passport........ I leave on May 19th - 23rd... I wouldn't have it for ID, so soon as I get back I'll have to send away

I guess it can't get worse as of 20minutes ago Earthquake hits Mexico City 6.0 magnitude, Plus they have closed all their schools due to flu

Funny thing landing in SAN is more of a concern then TJ is. The recycled Air! On the plane & with cases now being reported in San Diego, that’s my concern. Not OCC Plus NYC’S Mayor is holding a press conference any minute now with another 20 people confirmed with the Virus. It seems like NY is getting hit hard It's just something that has to be watched, I think it also depends on where you are coming from, Which States and how you are getting down there And I would not be going down to Mexico this week from NYC if I was schedule..... But that's just me........ Who the hell would want to come home band and puking the first week

WONDERFUL News from Doctor Dory Ferraro’s office. I spoke to them just now. They take Patience from Mexico all they ask for is 1. Operative report 2. Fluoroscopy X Ray for their Viewing, which I would let Doc O’s give me the x-ray or pay for it whatever I had to do I would take it with me. 3. She is right here In Leavitt town NY. her website is - http://www.doryferraro.com/ 4. $350 for first consult and fill 5. $175 after that. They would give us a forum to submit to our Insurance company, And if we could get anything out of them, it wouldn’t hurt trying........ But I think that’s great! http://www.doryferraro.com/

shiney42 replied to dreamhappy07's topic in Gastric Band Support & Discussion
I know this is an old thread BUT I smoked a pack a day for 31 years. I am now 53 days SMOKE FREE. CHANTIX CHANTIX CHANTIX THE BEST DRUG IN THE WORLD. I tried the PATCH, COLD TURKEY, WELLBURIN(SP?) Nothing had work like CHANTIX! the second week was hard, VERY Hard but by the 3rd week I had it beat! and I took the Chantix for another week and THAT'S it I'm Done smoking! I have my sister on it & also sent Chantix to my father to start, That's how much I believe in this drug... I swear to you try it! It'a amazing -
Oh and at that school 150 kids went home sick! That day and were not tested! so it is uncertain to just how many kids got it....http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/2009/04/27/2009-04-27_swine_flu_school_gets_scrubbing.html But parents and city officials report that, for the most part, the more than 150 students who've fallen ill are showing only mild symptoms If one was to get it I'm sure a mild case is still something they wouldn't want to have... I'm not due to fly down till May19th, But if I was flying down this week I wouldn't. The flight alone with recycled air - Is what I wouldn't like to put myself into. State Department is saying NOT to travel to Mexico - I'm glad I still have time

I can relate to what the media wants people to know and what they don't & the things they should blow up they don't..... It is NOW officsail http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,518076,00.html EU Health Minister: Don't Travel to Mexico or U.S. Monday, April 27, 2009 Print ShareThisMADRID — EU health officials urged Europeans on Monday to postpone nonessential travel to the United States and Mexico because of the swine flu virus, and Spanish health officials confirmed the first case outside North America. China, Russia and Taiwan said it would quarantine visitors showing symptoms of the virus amid a surging global concern about a possible pandemic. World stock markets fell as investors worried that the deadly outbreak could go global and derail any global economic recovery. Airlines took the brunt of the selling. The virus was suspected in up to 103 deaths in Mexico, the epicenter of the outbreak with more than 1,600 cases suspected, while 20 cases were confirmed in the United States and six in Canada. In Luxembourg, European Union Health Commissioner Andorra Vassiliou urged Europeans to postpone nonessential travel to the United States and Mexico "unless it is very urgent for them." A top German holiday tour operator said it was suspending charter flights to Mexico City. "These are early days. It's quite clear that there is a potential for this virus to become a pandemic and threaten globally," World Health Organization spokesman Peter Cordingley told AP Television News. "But we honestly don't know," he added. "We don't know enough yet about how this virus operates. More work needs to be done." Spanish Health Minister Trinidad Jimenez said the country's first confirmed swine flu case was a young man in the town of Almansa who recently returned from Mexico for university studies and is responding well to treatment. Neither he nor any of the 20 other people under observation for the virus are in serious condition. Three New Zealanders recently home from Mexico were suspected of having swine flu. Israel has put two people under observation, while France and Brazil have also reported suspected cases. Cordingley singled out plane travel as an easy way the virus could spread, noting that the WHO estimates that up to 500,000 people are aboard planes at any time. Governments in Asia — with potent memories of SARS and avian flu outbreaks — heeded the warning amid global fears of a pandemic. Singapore, Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, and the Philippines dusted off thermal scanners used during the 2003 SARS crisis and were checking for signs of fever among passengers arriving at airports from North America. South Korea and Indonesia introduced similar screening. In Malaysia, health workers in face masks took the temperatures of passengers as they arrived on a flight from Los Angeles. Russia, Hong Kong and Taiwan said visitors returning from flu-affected areas with fevers would be quarantined. Australian Health Minister Nicola Roxon said pilots on international flights would be required to file a report noting any flu-like symptoms among their passengers before being allowed to land in Australia. China said anyone experiencing flu-like symptoms within two weeks of arrival had to report to authorities. India will start screening people arriving from Mexico, the United States, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, Britain and France for flu-like symptoms, said Vineet Chawdhry, a top health ministry official. It also will contact people who have arrived in India from Mexico and other affected countries in the past 10 days to check for the symptoms, he said. Some officials cautioned that the checks might not be enough. The virus could move between people before any symptoms show up, said John Simon, a scientific adviser to Hong Kong's Center for Health Protection. In Hong Kong, Thomas Tsang, controller for territory's Center for Health Protection, said the government and universities aim to develop a quick test for the new flu strain in a week or two that will return results in four to six hours, compared with existing tests that can take 2-3 days. China and Russia banned imports of pork and pork products from Mexico and three U.S. states that have reported cases of swine flu, and other governments were increasing their screening of pork imports. Indonesia — the country hardest hit by bird flu — said it was banning all pork imports to prevent swine fever infections. Germany's largest tour operator, the Hannover-based TUI, suspended all charter flights to Mexico City through May 4. The suspension includes flights operated by TUI itself and also through companies 1-2 Fly, Airtours, Berge & Meer, Grebeco and L'tur. TUI said other holiday trips to Mexico would continue to operate but would not make stops in Mexico City "for the next few weeks." Japan's largest tour agency, JTB Corp., suspended tours to Mexico at least through June 30. At Madrid's Barajas International Airport, passengers arriving from Mexico on Monday were asked to fill out forms saying where they had been in Mexico, whether they had felt any cold symptoms and told to leave a contact address and phone number. "Where we were, there was no real alarm but we followed what was happening on the news and we're a little bit worried," said Spaniard Filomeno Ruiz, back from vacation in Cancun. Passengers were also given leaflets urging them to contact health authorities if they notice any symptoms in the 10 days following arrival. In the baggage arrival area of the airport, ground crews and police could be seen wearing surgical face masks. Some travelers took precautionary measures even though they had not been in Mexico. "Nobody has recommended it, but I've put the mask on out of precaution," said Roger Holmes of Britain, who was traveling to Tunisia from Madrid. "I'm not afraid, but it costs nothing to be careful." New Zealand Health Minister Tony Ryall said two students and a parent among a group of 15 who just came back from a class trip to Mexico had mild flu and were being tested for swine flu. On Sunday, officials said nine students and one teacher from a separate group that also were in Mexico "likely" have swine flu. All the New Zealand students and teachers along with their families had voluntarily quarantined themselves at home. Ryall said three small groups of returned travelers were being monitored after reporting flu symptoms following recent trips to North America. He gave no other details http://news.cheapflights.com/airlines/2009...ico-travel.html Health Officials Warn Against Mexico Travel The swine flu outbreak has health officials around the world concerned as more cases of the flu are being discovered in the United States, Spain and France. As we reported yesterday, airlines are offering to waive change fees for customers with booked flights to Mexico due to the influenza outbreak in Mexico. If you're currently planning travel to Mexico and want to change your flights or travel time, check with your airline to determine your options. In most cases, airlines will waive the change fee or offer a full credit toward another flight. In the meantime, health officials continue to grow more concerned over the outbreak and are advising travelers to cancel Mexico travel plans. Earlier today, EU Health Commissioner Andorra Vassiliou confirmed that the first case of wine flu was reported in Spain. According to MSNBC news sources, the Vassiliou urged Europeans to "postpone non-essential travel to the United States or Mexico due to swine flu." Cheapflights reporters did a quick scan of airports around the U.S. and found that all customs and passport control centers are processing travelers into the U.S. however, some travelers may be questioned in detail on how they are feeling, and required to take a quick temperature test.
