Try making chicken salad without it. Then you'd be in a really fowl mood. :roll:
I should've known that devildeac would beat me to the all-too-obvious pun.

With honours. And I'd love to see her take it...
I guess I don't understand the elbow test. I just had my wife, who is better endowed than any woman I know (see other thread), take it, and it was a tie between her feet (she wears a size 11) and her elbows. I just don't see how anyone short of Dolly Pardon would pass it if she can't.

at the rest of causing trouble...WindsorsDaughter did the elbow test...and it was a tie between her elbows and...well not her feet...she wears a 6 1/2

Yep, Bloor and Dundas are street names in T.O. They run parallel to each other.
Sorry for the misspelling of Bloor.

No worries, everyone does it. I was only commenting to point out that you did indeed remember correct street names from so long ago.

What's GERD? $:-\$ I get allergic rhinitis and have some issues with that myself. Did you end up with an albuterol inhaler?

Ugh! We will have a fight over this one.
I like the "alleged" bagels from Panera. Maybe I just don't know any better?

You don't know any better. Sorry, but it's the truth!

Nope - Nasonex for me. Fluticasone doesn't work for me at all. Too bad - it's cheaper.

That answers that question! I just got an albuterol inhaler, too - I'm also having problems with a wheezing cough. Mold count must be astronomical right now - at least, that's my problem. Do you have a similar allergy?

Check. I also take Singulair.

Acid reflux? That can also cause a cough.

Cool! I guessed correctly, and I get an extra post out of it!

I've always had allergies - seasonal (grasses, trees, weeds), mold, animal dander. I've never been diagnosed with asthma. It sounds like old age is catching up to me. I've always tended to just take a claritin or zyrtec or something when my nose is drippy. This wheezing heavy chest and cough is pretty new to me.

Lemme correct myself. I HAD never been diagnosed with asthma before today.

It doesn't have much. Did they show you how to use the inhaler before the gave it to you? Not using it properly will render it pretty useless.
Yeah he showed me. Hold it 1-2 inches out, make a puff and inhale it. Don't jam it all the way in and spray the back of your throat.

CVS gave me this tube thing you connect to the med, it's 5-6 inches long, clear. That's supposed to help too.

Thanks for the info! I got the inhaler but not the instructions.

My wife just reminded me that you also can't make cole slaw or potato salad or pasta salad.

I've had stomach problems for years, including one that simply cannot be diagnosed - but, thankfully, I haven't had an attack in over a year. I also suffer from GERD and I currently take a pill (not Zantac) for that each day and it solves the problem for me.
