Joe,

   Are you right on that one!!!  I mentioned to Dr. Collins about
Morphene Blocks, and before he could say another word...there is a Dr.
here in Tyler who does them (I won't mention names..)....and I sopke to
a few people who told me that this physician gave them STERIODS instead
of morphene blocks...(which is what was originally prescribed) and
these people gained MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF WEIGHT!!  I was prescribed
METHYLPREDNISLONE for 6 days...and I gained about 15 pounds...I lost it
by watching what I ate!  I felt sooo raunchy after those steriods.

   Nonetheless, I will go to Dallas before this Dr. here in Tyler
touches me!

   Well, I am not sure what to think....What are your views?

   Write soon!!  I look forward to hearing from you!!

   Elizabeth
