Patti cg15 Thanks for your honest opinion. I, too, understand the importance of not being close-minded to therapies just because they are 'different." I guess that I'm not thinking outside of the box enough. It's just that I have seen people taken advantage of so often with "snake oil" supplements, and other treatments. I suppose it would be fair to say that if there is no safety issues involved in alternative treatments, then it wouldn't (or shouldn't) hurt to try it out. I hope that I didn't offend anyone. Thanks, again.
