Amgen is something that I am keeping an eye on myself. Most of the info I have found is from another board. I am posting a link below to help you. The board is MGH- Neurology forum. http://neuro-mancer.mgh.harvard.edu/ubb/Forum71/HTML/004848.html. If you do a search using the term 'Amgen' pn this board you will find many other related topics. If I can assist further, do please write back. I hope this helps you in some way. Dabu ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jacob M.
