Thank you for your wonderful entry and sense of balance. I sometimes need to be reminded that
the rest of the planet is NOT populated by seriously mentally ill folk who, given the opportunity,
will attempt to abuse just about ANY substance from cough drops to Flintstone vitamins!
I guess what I really need to say is know yourself (medication/drug history) and be open and honest
with your prescriber.
James, you have something that when we see it on our unit we go ahhhhhh!!!! INSIGHT!!!
Thanks, Maribeth
