November 2012 Code Watch!!

[mommyof3princess27]

Well, I am now over 50% paid off for the trip, LOL. My goal is to be at 67% paid off by the time I get to do ADRs in early May, and then knock out the rest over the summer.

Edit:

Question for the fliers out there. What would you do in this situation

My father who lives a couple of towns over always drives us to and from the airport so we do not have to worry about car parking, etc. We have 3 airports to choose from: National, Dulles, and BWI (Baltimore). The first 2 if we fly either JetBlue or Southwest.

Dulles is the best airport of the three, and National is the worst, however, more direct flights to Orlando come out of National. When I experiment with flights during say August or Sept, there are no directs yet (they stop in June) from Dulles but plenty from National. My father said he has no problem getting us to and from either airport, but I guess my question is "Since it seems like I get a better shot at direct flights from National, should I book when available, or wait and hope that either airline offers direct flights out of Dulles?"

I fly out of BWI I fly airtran but am looking into SW. I say fly a direct flight!!!!

Sorry I have been MIA...I have been sick. Really sick. Let me take you off the track of disney planning for a sec...sorry but I need support. Many of u long time group members might remember my battle with a very painful UTI with bladder inflammation? Well I must have done 5 UA and all came back negative for bacteria-fine treated with antibiotics and moved forward, 2 weeks ago I had another bad UTI(with bladder tenderness and inflammation)-went to see PCP did another UA and same thing came back clean. In the meantime, I have figured out I cant drink soda at all, cant have chocolate and cant drink tea or lemonade. So I have been doing research and found what I might have. I am bringing it up at the drs tomorrow. he said one more negative UA before he can refer me to a Urologist. I have read so much on this disease its not funny. Its called Interstitial Cystitis and one of the main symptoms(along with all the other symptoms-which I have ALL of them) is negative UA, but UTI symptoms. I have found a diet to follow that elliminates all trigger foods BUT problem is its EVERYTHING. For example: NO hotdogs, ketchup, tomato sauce, pickles, seasoned potato chips, chinese food, MSG,artificial colors, artificial flavors, strawberries,soda of any kind, carbonation, powdered drinks, iced tea, lemonade,energy drinks, vitamin pills, bananas, ice cream(except vanilla) Thats all I can remember from the top of my head. It effects my bladder. Besides that and the going oh so often, I dont wanna ruin my familes trip I have been so upset I cried to my mom last night about having to stop every 10 or 15 min last time we were there because I didnt want to be in a line for a ride and have to go. I didnt know at the time which foods effected me or that I was sick all I thought is I still had this UTI. She said no one will judge u or get mad. I just pray this IS what I have only because I need an answer. I dont wish I had this. There is NO cure only through diet/exercise and meds for sleeping/pain will I be able to control it.

Sending you lots of

Hope you find answers soon.

Oh dear. Hugs to you! That does not sound good. I'm so sorry you're unwell. I'll be praying for you so you and your family can enjoy many, many more WDW vacations. Maybe your doctor can shed more light on this? Go for your appointment armed with questions for him. Meanwhile, stay positive and hopeful.

Can I hop on this train?!? It's official--I just bought the plane tickets for our next Disney trip--Nov. 24th--Dec. 1st. Probably staying at WL again!


I'm already getting excited. Many ADRs already planned out. Now I just need to book the rooms--hoping for FD, like everyone else. Going with DH, DS, DD and ILs.

mommyof3princess27, if you have not already tried this, change the clothes detergent that you use for washing undies. The fewer scents, softening etc the better.

mommyof3princess27 - A couple years ago I finally went to the doctor b/c I had such stomach issues. It was horrible. I would get sick with EVERYTHING I ate. Cancer runs (too much) in my family so I kept thinking the worst. Imagine my surprise when after test were done and I was told to take in more fiber. To this day I drink a fiber mix every morning and feel so much better! I'm not saying that's what you have, but I hope that makes you feel better that perhaps it's something as simple as that. I certainly hope so for you!

 

[Happy Mom2]

Well bless your heart!! I hate when I get that junk! And low grade fever makes you feel just awful!! hopefully you got some good meds and can rest a little!!

Thanks. I'm feeling better today. Glad I went to the doctor and got meds early on before it got too bad.

Oh, mommyof3, I'm so sorry to hear that. You must be just miserable. I pray your doctors will be able to properly diagnose you, and find the correct treatment. I hope you feel better soon. Many hugs.

For those of you who have pre-ordered the photopass cd, did you receive some kind of paperwork or your photopass card after your pre-order? OR do you just use the card in your trip itinerary Disney package?

Also for dinner shows (SOA) and special parties (MVMCP) where do you pick up your tickets?

TIA

Happy Mom2 ~ glad to hear you are feeling better.

mommyof3princess27 ~ hope you are feeling better soon.

Photopass: I just received an email with my confirmation in it. Last trip, I just got a new card each day from the 1st photographer we saw.

Tip: Take a picture of your photopass card with your phone. Be sure you can see the numbers clearly. This way, if you lose the card, you still have the number and can retrieve your pictures.

MVMCP: I never picked up any tickets. I just printed my tickets at home and brought them with me. They just scanned the bar code at the gate.

mommyof3~Poor you!!! I am so sorry you are dealing with all this!! I tell ya, sometimes, we just have to start finding answers ourselves!! I had to with an issue I was dealing with and learned a lot on my own!! It was super helpful...have you checked any websites yet for natural supplements to help with this? I buy stuff from a few that have a lot of good products you may want to look into,...Beeyoutiful is a website that sells herbal supplements/vitamins,etc,..also iherb is a good one...I agree that your hubby needs to read some info--it is going to affect him too,..unfortunately. Have you talked to the Dr about giving your hubs an antibiotic? A friend of mine was dealing with an infection sorta like this a while back and come to find out, she would finish a round of pills, then her husband would pass it back to her!!!! Just a thought,...but I will be praying you find an answer!! I know it has got to be painful and aggravating,..I can not drink Coke...bladder infection!!!! I can have Dr P all day long, but a Coke? weird.
