Hope the cipro helps take care of whats wrong. Its a very strong antibiotic, make sure you eat soemthing with it or you could get a really bad stomach ache.
Claudia...Im in PA also but did not get a check. They helped me with providing a driver a few times for me to get to radiation. They also helped with covering some co-pays for my meds.
Alot of people dont realize the American Cancer Society is there and can help in many ways. Glad you brought this topic up.
