Hi Stacy, So, if someone is switched from SSI to Disability, then will they go from Medicaid to Medicare? If so, how will that affect their attendant care? Julie C4-5 27 yrs post On Sun, 27 Feb 2005 14:53:30 -0500 Stacy Harim [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Well I was literally days away from a

I take ditropan once a day and if I didn't, I'd have bad bladder spasms. So, I definitely need to take it, but everyone is different. I didn't take it for years and I was fine. But, lately I began having bad spasms. Julie c4-5 28 years post On Tue, 03 Aug 2004 13:47:42 -0700 Kenneth Q.
