Yardies, at home and a farrin' (Part 4)

[12/11/2006 0]

My fiance has to get two shots today at the medical. Total cost of medical exam...a whopping....$11,000. It's a rip off.

Wow, I wonder how much it would cost for all the shots? Javon needs them b/c he immunization card was destroyed in Ivan.

Melvin got half of his shots about a month ago and the other half two days ago and it came to about $8000 JA. Its so funny because if you call the medical offices that the embassy states you should go to they tell you to come there and that you shouldn't go anywhere else. Yes, they are supposed to the exam for the interview but they do not necessarily have to give the shots. If you go outside of them just make sure that the DR. signs and dates your card for the immunization records so that you can show the insisted doctors the proof. They just want your damn money.

Its also so surprising because my fiance melvin got sick two days ago (sick now) after getting 3 shots. So, just imagine when you go to the embassy's insisted doctors and they give you all of the shots at one time (if you need it). Is that even safe? They truly don't even know how a person is going to react to the vaccinations. They don't care. All they care about is getting their money. Any comments on this?

Yeah I know this is a pain in the butt...but you can in fact get all shots one time just not in the same spot. Just like babies get their required shots at once

O, do you know what shots he got went he went ? the shots he should have get should have been boosters except if he never had chicken pox he would have gotten the varicella vaccine

Yeah he got some booster shots, varicella, Hep B (1 and then 2nd shot) So he should be okay now. Oh yeah and influenza ( i think that is what got him sick)

Ok, I've been on here asking about different ViOP services and cld each one. Basically the savings are not that much for me to go the extra route of either having my # changed or purchasing the equipment. I currently pay 35 cents a min thru AT&T as my long distance carrier. Anyway, I am interested in hearing more about this MegaFone. I was told I could purchase a CDMA phone here in the states and have it unlocked and they would be able to transfer service to my phone. Is that correct? What about MiPhone? Does anyone know about that?

My fiance has the megafon. He paid $1750J for the phone and it's $1000J a month. So worth it.. That's less than 15 dollars US a month. He also said that cable and wireless has the same program for $1000 a month but you just need the chip to put inside your phone. I wish we had that here.

Yeah we have both Cable and Wireless, and Megafone. I am so damn happy for those phones I don't know what to do. Its so much cheaper then buying cards here and my tmobile bill has been so much lesser. The only thing is that we now have to watch my daytime minutes because I went over last month.

Can you tell me more about the MiPhone? I also have been trying to read up on that as well but it all seem so confusing. I cld "foreignphone" but the plan do seem worth it to me. It would cost me $39.99 a month for the package, then 17 cents a mins PLUS I would to change phone #'s. I have family across the globe and for me to change #'s seems a bit much.

My husband doesn't have access to the net. I was looking into adding a landline w/the net but he's tell me it don't make sense. Not sure why, but he must know.

i don't know that much about miphone. i'm told that it has a flat rate for both domestic and foreign calls.

jonesie congrats on your baby boy!

Congrats Jonesie!

Nyseness you can buy a CDMA phone from sprint or verizon not the GMS chip phones. I've heard the phones you buy from the store don't work very well but the one my husband uses works 95% of the time. And it has never dropped a call. good luck!

Thanks I have a brand new Sanyo 8400 phone from Sprint at home. I bought it right before I switched my service to T-mobile.

Why are you paying 35 cents a min??? That is CRAZY! I know from previous posts people have given numerous other methods that #1-don't require purchasing $$ equipment and #2-are under 20 cents a min. Is there something I am missing? Just off of the top of my head I can recall Sprint calling cards are one way...then I personally use www.noblecom.com and have used www.tel3advantage.com in the past. All of which are under 20 cents a min. Hope this helps or clue me in....please

I don't purchase calling cards. When I call JA I normally just call from my home phone. It's not that bad b/c I don't call Javon often but w/my daughter going down I wanted a way for her to call me daily w/o putting us in debt. On average I pay about $300 a month for my phone service and that includes my landline (which I only use for long distance), my DSL, and my dish network.

Wow, I am sure you can't wait to have Javon here to cut that expense a bit... I use my Western Union card to make calls to my hubby. It's 8 cents a minute for landlines and 31 cents a minute for cell phones. I add money to the card online and use that when I call him nightly.
