lsg84 asked: I will be flying in a couple of weeks but I am currently using a zofran pump. What should I expect as far as going through security at the airport? Am I limited on the # of medical supplies that I can bring on the plane? Can I walk through the xray? Please don’t tell me to talk to my dr/nurse, I will. I want to hear from people that have experience with this. Thanks!

Daniel B asked: I came into my work today and saw that a large shelving unit was installed directly over my desk. I do not feel very safe knowing there will be hundreds of pounds of storage sitting over my head. My boss said that the company is insured so there is no need to worry about it. but I do not have health insurance and I think if something were to happen I would be liable for my medical bills.

wisemancumth asked: and their support for National health care. Since 90% of medical equipment and supplies are made from petroleum products I guess if doctors are forced to use wood, stone and sheep skins that will save a lot of money.
Melissa me. I never said the war was or wasn’t for oil, but if it is was it would be justified.
why cant you liberals answer a question without swisting it around to make it about Conservatives?
Mel, you accuse me of reaching then start spewing like that? More hypocrisy.
