I hope I'm not too young to drink Ovaltine.gg I really like the malted chocolate flavor. I popped something in my back and I hurt everywhere from my pits to my crotch all the way around. Hurts to breathe. Just to my groin though, Huey and Louie are ok as is their big uncle Donald. Whew!!

DON'T hold me up: How did you manage to put yourself into this pain? [I do not believe it: This is the second time tonight I went to respond and forgot to go to the original message and ended up responding to myself instead of the other person! Senior moments or lunacy?)

<<<And I take glucosamine with chondreitin for my disc problems! (On the recommendation of the neurologist and the massage therapist.)>>> I take a combination of those two for a post-laminectomy back, too. After I'd taken in for a few weeks, I told my orthopedist that it had been very, very helpful. This was a couple of years ago. He was dismissive of it then as one of those "alternative" therapies not to be taken seriously. Recently, he suggested it for me. I said, "I already take it. I told you about it a couple of years ago." Eventually they do catch on. In the meantime they annoy me. The same thing happened when I told my internist that if he told his patients who were made as ill as i was by antibiotics to take acidophilus capsules between doses, they wouldn't be hideously nauseated the whole time they were on the medication. He said "They can eat yoghurt." I said, "It won't help. They would have to eat a bathtub full of it. Acidophilus has billions of microorganisms, not millions, and, unlike yoghurt, helps." It took him three years to get around to telling me, when he prescribed an antibiotic, that if I suffered nausea, to go to the health food store and get acidophilus capsules in the refrigerated case. Same thing with melatonin. He dismissed it when I first raised it. Recently he suggested it to a friend of mine. God, they're slow.
