I forgot that one. I do take that as well. And definitely true about the medication. I hope I'll be able to get to a doctor at some point (before I'm dead I hope!) in the future. You always have to use your head when dealing with doctors (or anyone for that matter). I was the one who figured out that that rosacea medication was the thing that was giving me liver damage as well as drug-induced lupus among other things. My rheumatologist didn't figure it out and my dermatologist didn't even schedule regular liver testing for a drug that is known to damage the liver. Oh, my health is a long and sordid tale with few noble characters. Still, I wouldn't mind at least being able to sift through the providers out there because there are some good ones.

Anyways, thanks for the tip. If there's anything else you'd recommend I'm all ears. I'm always on the lookout as well.
