General comment upon reading 151 RLS msgs

March 31, 1999

Congratulations on having survived Med School, Internship, Residency

etcetc. After 71 years on this planet titles before and after someone's name

fails to excite me. Anyhow, I did enjoy our little " back and forth " a week or

so again and I believe you did too. Let's do it again sometime...........

Varicose sharicose!!! enough already.

I too am sorry to see some sign off but what the hey, I've been here for

something like 2 years or more and am having a helluva time bitchin' ,

encouraging, laughing, crying, searching and comparing notes. No way is anyone

getting rid of me!!

I may get carpal tunnel syndrome again from plunking away on the delete button

when things get too hairy but hey, que sera sera as ole Barney Fife used to say.

I'm sorry too that everyone's questions go unanswered sometimes but I agree, if

you really want an answer ask it again and add " will someone please wake up and

answer ME? "

I'm still into the Homeopathic thing and have gotten some books to look over

plus I've discovered a keen place in Middlebury where they're knowledgeable

about it. I got put on the list of folks to notify when they have a speaker

come down from Burlington (there are several MD's up there who have incorporated

Homeopathy in their practice). It's called the " gentle medicine " where the

patient, not the disease, is treated. Sounds weird but it works. After I know

a lot more I'll report if it helps my RLS along with my plethora of other

complaints. ;-)

Meanwhile folks, stay calm, retain your sense of humour, be patient with us and

remember we're here to not only give out information on what's helping and

what's not but we're here to try to keep each other from sinking into clinical

depression, thoughts of suicide and even maybe wreaking havoc on the world

around us because of this awful malady that the outside world just doesn't seem

to understand or take seriously.

CHEERS!!

Mr. Biggles sez " You humans got a lot to learn. Sometimes I wonder why God put

you in charge of us instead of the other way around........... "

(he mumbles a lot)
