Rlyons, you're so very welcome. And remember, there are a lot of things that are good for us in small doses but toxic in larger doses. We could say that about antiinflammatory drugs, about cough syrup (especially with codeine), about antihistimines -- even about aspirin.

The best bet we have is to do exactly what you're doing -- find a doctor you trust, listen carefully to him or her, ask questions, get information, and then move forward. More and more it's clear that we are our own best advocate in any form of health care, no matter how "minor" it may seem in the grand scheme of things.

Take care!
