I wouldn't discount what this new person says either. I would give it a try. I have a new pain specialist who is a physiosist. She put me on suppliments also. This is the first time in my life I have taken them. I have multipal things wrong involving my immune system. I am with you, for trying out something a bit different. I hope it works for you and me both. Glad to hear Jack the cat, is up and about enjoying life. I wish you all the best. ginnie
