@buddysmom AFAIK Wegman's is a Central/Western NY thing, and there aren't any in the Albany area. Then again, I did hear a rumor that one was coming to Albany....can someone confirm?

@GoldenPenguin thanks! I completely forgot about Price Chopper, and will see how expensive they are. And I will definitely appreciate knowing what one your friend used! My friend is getting married at St. Mary's Church in Ballston Spa and then the reception is at Mallozzi's in Schenectady, so the florist would have to have a large service area.

Nope, no Wegman's in the Capital Region. WAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH :-(

@eilis1228 They didn't sue. Basically, she had a kidney infection (she has a genetic kidney condition) and took Cipro and then ended up in the hospital unable to walk. Actually, I think she was in the hospital already for the kidney infection (since she only has one kidney) and then she ended up in a wheel chair, etc. Lots of physical therapy (and family and husband support) later, she's walking with a cane.

@cocobellaf I love hearing stories about doctors that actually care and take time to figure out your medical issues

It's sometimes hard to find.

@aurorarose41 - My friend used Felthousen's in Niskayuna. She said they were amazing to work with, decent prices, and threw in a bunch of stuff for free!

@GoldenPenguin that is the one that I recommended to my friend yesterday! They were my mother's client and did flowers for my grandmother's wake and funeral, and the arrangements were beautiful. I just wasn't sure if there were any others in the area too that I should tell her about.

the only good part about being on antibiotics for so long was that my skin was SO CLEAR. and then, a couple weeks after being off them, it started acting up around TOTM again. boo!

@Blue - Oh I will look into it and see if H is interested! Thanks for the idea!

@eilis1228 - 3 weeks?! Can you take a Z-pack/Zithromax? I used to get chronic sinus infections (I've since had surgery and went from 8 a year to MAYBE 1 a year) and I think that's what they gave me more often than not.

I feel like I was given Cipro back when I had my ...ahem... stomach issue after Costa Rica.

I've also taken Cipro for UTI's.

I took Cipro when I had the clap.

Blue & White · July 2014

Yep, I was on Cipro within the last two years. It's scary stuff. I was also on some weird antibiotic in the hospital this time that would TANK my blood pressure (I'm talking like 88/58 or something) and the nurses didn't seem to mind that it was ya know, 30 points less than it was when I wasn't on that antibiotic. Whereas I thought I was just going to die or something, because my heart wasn't beating hard enough

@swazzle I haven't been prescribed a Z-Pack in years, but I remember those were little miracle pills. I'll ask about it when I go in later next month. I'm going to specifically request he not give me Levaquin again, so I can ask about a Z-pack as an alternative. I'm glad your sinus surgery worked! I went to the ENT hoping he would open me up and fix all this, but he's really hesitant to do surgery for whatever reason. Such a punk.

@bethsmiles - That's awesome! I told you! You had every reason to be confident. I really hope you get hired right away though! :S
