MDJunction to me

jackie1979"MDJ is like a family to me where I can talk to others who understand how I feel. I can as group leader help others and support them and be there
for each other for the good and bad times. MDJ has helped me come to terms with my disability and be able to live my life and be positive. I just hope that I can be there for others like my friends on MDJ have been here for me.

My LLMD recommended I take n-acetyl cysteine for liver support during abx treatment. I don't know much about this but I've read a ton about milk thistle doing this as well. I'm wondering which is more effective or if they can be taken together?

Thanks!

Mel
