Ha! My doctor does not accept phone calls or messages. I went in person today to ask,(35 miles) was told I could ask at an appointment and the earliest available was May 24. Whereupon my anxiety peaked, I had a major meltdown in his reception area, and was told "the doctor knows all about medicines and we're sure it must be fine." I guess next step is look for a new doctor. I don't know if I can face it.Marsha
