Zowie,
Thanks for the info. Don't worry, I had already talked to a Dr. and i
also have an apt tomorrow to see one. It is kinda a mess b/c i just
switched insurances so now i have to have a dr. Referal to get back to
the Dr. That gave me the prescription. So we will see. Thanks again
for responding. Laura
