AH>Hi, Daryl!  Recently you wrote in a message to ARDITH HINTON:

Ardith,

AH>Never a dull moment, eh?  I seem to recall that another person said,
AH>many years ago, "Can't I have a few dull moments... please??"  ;-)

  With the surgeries last year (kidney stone and prostate), I had a lot
of medical expenses. But, thankfully, I was ble to get the majority of
both written off. The expenses I did have allowed me to keep the same
rent this year as I had last year.

AH>I hadn't heard of it.  Thanks for the info....  :-)

  I really liked it...but as per an earlier message, it had to get
"undone".

AH>So I gather.  In most cases they're probably not a serious cause for
AH>concern... apart from the inability to pee, which can be life-threatening.  

  BPH (enlarged prostate) normally does not lead to prostate
cancer...although that cancer is one of the greatest killers of males.

AH>I see you've done your homework.  I like that....  :-)

  You have to be proactive on your health.

AH>Yes, I've heard of Flomax.  As a rule of thumb I consider surgery to
AH>be a last resort.  But if it means one doesn't have to count on pharmaceutic
AH>ad infinitum I'm interested... and I'd do a similar risk/benefit analysis.  

  I still take it...and since I started producing kidney stones again
after a 4 1/2 year hiatus, will probably do so for awhile.

Daryl
