>Hey...long time - no read!
Glad to hear you are still hanging in there!
Yes, I take all the supplements you mentioned, plus.
I have an appt in Feb. w/pdoc, and will have to discuss dose increase, again. I feel the irritability and depressed thoughts creeping back in, and hope another increase will help.
DON'T be a stranger, I miss your wonderful posts!
Very Best Wishes!!!~~~8|8
