linda i agree wholeheartedly that his forum is need to share experiences, and to give advice, the advice i feel is unwarrented is when we take our own situation and then force whats happendd to us onto someone else. as you yourself sadi a big part of treating us, is/was trial and error to see which medication(s) may work best. While i think its great to say, ask your doc about trying this_______ whatever it may be, but a lot of what im seeing lately is along the lines of oh your doctor must be a quack because he did this, or my medication is better than yours, i mean it sounds like a lot of people are more interested in debunking mnedical treatment than in helping others live with an incurable horrible disease, that a lot of people just dont know enough about.
