WELL I HAD BEEN SICK GOT AN UNFILL 3 WKS AGO WENT DOWM AND GOT A FILL THIS PAST MONDAY 7/9 2007. DR H ONLY PUT IN .9cc in my bnad which holds 5cc. SO at this point, I do not have any restrictions SO now I emailed her and ask for another appointment. But dont know if they are paying or am I going to get stuck I hope the Dr calls me .:faint::help::scared::rolleyes:kiss:think:eyebrows::eyebrows:I feel that if I could tolerate more cc when I went for the appointment, the Dr. should have given it to me. diane
