Hi Katie, and welcome.

One of our best vacations a few years ago was your city.
Just a beautiful town loaded with history.
We even visited with the famous gentleman who made cast iron gates, who died recently. What a thrill.

thanks jules and tom.

i love living here! i got to the beach all the time. i have to be careful of the heat though, as you all now! the architecture here is great. i grew up in RI in a historic area, too.

why hello there I live in Summerville and work at a local aircraft manufaturer in the area. I work with another person that has this Monster as well. I was dx'd Feb. 2012 as well. I was sent by our on site nurse to Roper St France, that's when I learned of this MONSTER. The Nero I see is Dr Bahadori we have a good relationship

Hi I live in Fort Mill and came originally from Michigan. I belonged to a great support group there and wish I could find one in this area.

Yes the heat does bother me but I rather have this weather than the cold winters of the mid west.

Hi Katie,
Sorry to meet you here but welcome to the board. I loved visiting Charleston. Used to have a cap from the Yorktowne but my wife washed it and ruined it. I also fell in love with Sullivan Island ( there are palm trees there ).
Do your best to minimize your heat exposure. I wish you well. Good luck

Ever hear of Monks Corner?

I lived there for a few years.

I had a boss that lived in Summerville, and stayed there a few months before getting a place in Monks Corner (Conifer Hall). I used to shop in Goose Creek and most of my doctors were in North Charleston. Had cancer surgery at Trident hosp, N. Charleston, then spent an afternoon in a cat scanner at Roper one day, had an oncologist in Mt Pleasant (hated the OLD narrow wild-mouse bridge, I hear is now history) and numerous specialist at the univ Medical center.

I worked in Charleston mostly and later for a while in No Charleston.

2 special rules;
-1-Never buy gas at the bottom of a hill and
-2- Never drive downtown during a full moon at high tide.
