Hi Tina. "lilyoaws
I live in the Des Moines area. I can go pick up my prescriptions. I call ahead and they get them ready, then when I go pick them up there's a number posted that I call and they bring it out to my car. I could have Hyvee deliver, but I need to get out of the house. Can't do any exercise because of my back pain, so I've gained 10 lb's. But I got Gastro Perisis again and now have to eat small meals doing the day. It's where your stomach doesn't digest food. I feel better today, with less pain. Hope to lose weight now. Wish we lived closer.

I wish we lived closer too. I know there are people in my area with MAC because my regular physician is mystified by my thyroid numbers going wacky because she has another patient with the same disease with the same meds and she's doing fine. I thought, she's a different person. She said my pulmonologist is also treating her. My insurance does not cover Mayo so I can't go there. So far I'm happy in Davenport but I can go to Iowa City if I see a need.
