Dear Maggie, I don't know the answer to your question but Dr. Rick may (or may not) be able to help you with an answer -- he is very bright. I've included his message board link below. I believe there is a small cost to participate (ask questions), but I believe the nominal cost is well worth the advice he provides (much better than physically hopping from dr to dr LOL). I just went to his website and looked up the basic fee for posting questions -- its $35 to post as many questions as you like for one year -- check out the site, I'm sure you'll find its $35 well spent! (No, I don't work for the website LOL, I just am very impressed with him). His site also provides loads of information via Articles and a Newletter, etc.. Hope this helps.
