Very interesting conversation, guys and gals. I tried to go without meds. I was theoretically questioning my diagnosis. I made it less than a year before I had a huge recurrence and was begging for my medication again. I am apparently one of those people who just can't really go med-free. Oh well. It's fine. I don't really mind taking them. If it keeps me from having to go through that hell, I'm happy to do it.
