Hope you get that esophageal/acid reflux situation cleared up, BoldHighlander. I know it can cause it's own sort of horrific back pain, too, kind of like having a spear rammed all the way through your body right under where your rib cage comes together.

Thanks Ted.

Here’s hoping and praying that the treatment will work.
It can be very frustrating when doctors flounder around failing to diagnose a condition (shades of House!).
A niece of mine has been having a trying time with migraine headaches, and was eventually diagnosed with sinusitis. On the face of it there seems to be no connection, but I suffer from similar headaches (not migraine), and have had some relief when taking sinus medication.
Regards,
Mike

Well, winter quarter began this past week (Wednesday to be exact) and its already a whirlwind, so just to let you all know that while I'll still be checking in (& keeping tabs on the Aberdeen Shipping Co.), my postings on XMarks may become less frequent for a time.

I promise however not to completely disappear for two or three months at time like has happened before!

WOW! Little should I have known as to tempt the hand of fate in my last post (above). Here it is, about two months since my last posting on XMarks!

Couldn't be helped though, this past quarter was a real bear. There were times I wanted to throw in the towel. When it gets like that I just got to keep my eyes on the prize at the end!

Well, a slight breather (Spring Break), then back to the grind April 3rd. Its hard to believe that at the end of Spring quarter that 1 year of schooling has gone by (with three more to go!!).

Anyhow, thought I'd let my friends know that I am still breathing. I hope all is going well with everyone else out there. I'll try and not be a stranger {ahem!}

Now that is keeping your nose to the grindstone, Terry!

Enjoy your break!

**Father Bill** · 23rd March 12, 05:39 AM

Glad to see you here, unmet friend!

**Mike_Oettle** · 24th March 12, 09:07 AM

Well, Terry, it’s good to know you have your nose to the grindstone, and are not languishing in ill health as you were before.
Keep up the good work!
Regards,
Mike
