I agree a 100 percent !!!!!!!! That's an EXCELLENT idea. All of us are getting on up there in age and something is always coming up with somebody.

not really a good idea,too many legal implications could become involved for a newspaper forum.

Exactly, as a professional, I have to refrain from giving specific investment advice. Compliance is royal pain.

I was involved in a forum where a psychiatrist was dispensing her advice like Pez. She got in a lot of trouble. I think it's unprofessional to attempt to diagnose a person over the Internet. Not to mention, people aren't always who they say they are.

Here is some very good medical advice for those of you on here who either drink or smoke.

QUIT DOING BOTH and your prospects for good health and longevity will improve.

No liability there.

And please do not come back with that stuff about one or two drinks a day being good for the heart, etc. That concept still is in debate in the medical fraternity.

I don't think bluesman means for us to GIVE ADVICE. I think he is just saying to share our illnesses or injuries.

By sharing symptoms, one might know if it is serious or not. That isn't advice, it is reading what someone else went through.

I wouldn't mind it, God knows I have my share, LOL!!!

Not like "my chest hurts and I wonder if it is a heart attack", but more along the lines of "I am lactose intolerant and wonder if anyone has any ideas on how to deal on a day-to-day basis". Right?

So, I really am lactose intolerant and wonder if any of ya'll have any ideas on how to deal... where should I post a thread on that topic?

The National Institutes of Health has online information that might help you. This is solid information from the gummint, so you do not have to worry whether there is any quackery involved, as there often is with health information posted on the web. My wife is lactose intolerant and substitutes soy milk for cow's milk in many recipes. I have learned to like soy milk also.

T S C , see what I mean ? beternU was offering you some help here and I told you all so. You all just have to ignore him when he offends you all.

Well Hound Dog, if he said anything - I missed it. He is on my ignore list.

Have a good evening!

T S C , check your PM. I sent you a copy of his response. The next time he offers to help you I may not see it.

If he really bothers you that bad I'd keep him on the ignore list too.

Hound Dog, you are such a sweet person, but I don't think the ones who have him on IGNORE wants to see what they said, or else they wouldn't have him on IGNORE.

Besides, if I read TSC's reply correctly, she was just using that as an example of the questions that MIGHT be asked

Nice bit of posing, but nobody believes you on this!

You are wrong, I believe her!!!

I guess I was wrong. I never imagined anyone would be that naive!

No,KS, go back and read her post. I think that she was clear that this is a problem that she would like advice about. I too, am interested in this particular subject. I think that we could all learn from each other. I will be watching to see where this goes.

Hey betnru, they are making fun of you in the....misalanious place

But that wasn't the POINT of my reply. My reply was that I was agreeing with bluesman.

And I KNOW that TSC is definitely smart enough that if she is lactose intolerant, she ALREADY knows the signs, symptoms, and what to do about it, hence is why I replied the way I did.

Ya'll are all so sweet! Yes, I really am lactose intolerant. Yes, I know the signs... drink milk = get sick!

What I'd like (and Blues had an excellent idea) is to know if any of you guys have this condition, too and if so - can you share some recipes and any sort of advice? I think I'll go down to the Health & Beauty section and post the question. I wish the TD would just put all the forums together. It seems like I forget about the Shoals Woman part and hardly ever check to see what's been posted there. I know Dog Soldier posts on there, but how do the other guys feeling about posting on the chick boards?

I feel secure enough in my man hood to post on that forum!

All this talk of lactose intolerance makes me want a milkshake! Anybody else wanna join?

In all seriousness I can't stand the thought of not being able to have a good shake from time to time. I feel for all of you that really do have this problem.
