May your doctor be of help with your decision. I am finding it very difficult to decide.
I would really appreciate any insights. Healing thoughts sent your way.

Hi, saw my family Dr. today. He said I should at least try the meds. Space them out over two week periods to that I can determine which one, if any gives me side effects . I am also going to consult with an infectious disease Dr. just for more insight etc. Certainly can't hurt. I will keep up my routine of vitamins, and probiotics and see how it goes. I'm 75 and thought maybe it wasn't worth putting myself through the meds etc. but I am a very active 75 involved in a lot of things, President of my Garden Club etc. so it's worth giving it a shot. Some people do very well on the meds and other's don't. It's a gamble, but isn't everything we do in life somewhat of a gamble. Wishing you well in whatever you decide. Keep me posted!
