Sourdough bread (need advice)

If you didn't have a reaction it should be fine... I'd take iPoop's advice. I eat all kinds of breads (probably my favorite food) and pastas all the time. When I do have symptoms it helps slow me...

Insect bites

Red, actually, we do have the massasauga rattlesnake here in MI! It is very shy and also protected. However if you are bitten, you are very unlikely to die. :) Sorry, I always have to educate about...

New to Forum

I've been on azathioprine for quite a long time, too. 9 or 10 years, now, I guess. No problems. 125mg then up to 150. From my understanding, the most serious side effects are for those on a very high...

Right. Way too much for me. Also I feel like I could get an appointment for that, not go to the ER. PP does income based care if I can get ahold of my birth certificate. Maybe they'd accept a picture...
