OT Diet coke vs vitamins/prescriptions
My meds affect the way I write. Use to have 'near-perfect' sentence
structure. Now I use a lot of dashes, forget the commas, use colons where it should have been a comma and only AFTER I hit send do I realize 'I did it again'. I gave up fighting it. To me, it's MORE important to be able to even type and not have to use my talkie machine(didn't even put it ON this compie YAY!). I use the spell check when I remember to. Butterfly (I'm crocheting again (short times but I'm doing it) and I never ever thought I'd ever ever do that again so I'm happy : ) "J*" wrote in message ... wow, only 90 minute delay? i'm totally impressed, Polly. takes me days sometimes. i've given up and try to explain to dh what i'm wanting to figure out the word. sometimes he gets it, sometimes now, my fault for not being able to describe the word effectively. oh well. dealing with 'c.r.a.f.t.' in the south pacific, j. "Polly Esther" wrote... I've noticed that my word memory runs about 90 minutes behind. When we were talking about naming quilts earlier, my memory would not bring up the word 'pretentious'. Sometimes the namer of the quilt gets an illusion (delusion?) of grandeur when something else would be so much nicer. I understand. Polly "Dr. Zachary Smith" wrote, in part Odd you should put it that way. I have noticed more than anyone what the ravages of age, disease, and medication are doing to both my vocabulary and writing style (not to mention personality). I'm finding it increasingly difficult to choose the right word resulting in my posts being inundated with slashes (word/word/word). I also seem to be gravitating toward run-on sentences. |

OT Diet coke vs vitamins/prescriptions
Leslie (and others who may be reading here!)
Whenever you have concern about ANY medicine, whether Prescribed (Rx) or Over the Counter (OTC), the best one to ask is your Pharmacist. People think of the Pharmacists only for Rx but they are experts on OTC as well. BTW: I just use plain, cool water for all meds. Works for me! Pat in VA/USA "Leslie& The Furbabies in MO." wrote in message ... This ng has an amazing amount of knowledge available and I haven't been successful in my internet searches for an answer, so I come to y'all- once again- for answers. A friend told me that any prescription medicines or vitamins that I take with a swig of my much-loved Diet Cherry Coke are a waste. She claims the Coke will cause my body to not absorb them or the Coke will 'destroy or breakdown the meds/vitamins or some such. I really didn't pay much attention since I didn't want to hear that stuff. (She lectures me on the dangers of any diet drink.) Does anybody know if this has any truth to it or not? Or any ideas on what or how I can search to find out for certain? And, please, no lectures on drinking Diet Cherry Coke- it's one of the small pleasures I have left. ;-) Leslie & The Furbabies in MO. |
