for insurance reasons, I started with a new MD this week
she's an internist but seems to be half "real" dr and half "witch" dr... accupuncture, herbs, whatnot.... interesting stuff but IDK....
she changed one of my prescriptions, which I believe needed doing, but because of that she also stopped the St John's Wort I've been very happy with for a couple of yrs, and told me to take 5-HTP.

Never heard of this, it sounds like an engine additive, lol

I have read up on it a bit and it seems i may have to become a teetotaler (or is it toeteetler) & I really object to that. If I feel like quitting I would quit but i resent the idea of HAVING to quit.

Is anyone familar with this stuff? Is it OK? Better than SJW? Not better? I've asked T what she thinks, but no reply yet. thanks
