MDJunction to me

"All I can say is that this has been the best place ever. It has been six to seven months since I joined, and I have learned so much. I now believe in myself and accept myself on a completely different level. The people on MDJunction has been so supportive and accepting that I have been able to adopt it into my personal life. That has reduced a lot of stress in my life. Thanks to all." (bunny_fly)

 There are currently 2 meds that are working for me. One is Deplin, the other is Lovaza. Deplin is a Rx strength vitamin that works with other drugs to make them work better. Lovaza is a Rx strength fish oil that is generally used to treat high cholesterol, but the omega 3 (or maybe 6?) in it can help other issues as well. Just wanted to share.
