wow derbarbarian,i'm really sorry to hear about your condition. i hope you get better or at least find some relief.
when i saw that large pile of empty medicine containers it made me think of the effects on your liver. i'm sure you had to take them all and i'm not saying anything against that. you have to do what you have to do and there may be no way around that for you.
however,many harsh medicines/chemicals can have a secondary negative effect on the liver,stomach and sometimes the kidneys and since you have no choice but to take those medicines it may be a good idea to protect those organs.
there's a product/herb called MILK THISTLE. unlike many of the exaggerated claims made about so many other herbs,milk thistle has been known for centuries to be effective against liver damage. it is one of those herbs that actually does what is claimed of it.
i am not a doctor and i'm not trying to be one so please ask your doctor if taking milk thistle is safe for you or if it would have any contra action with the medicines your taking. again,ask your doctor.
milk thistle is so effective in protecting the liver that it is given/taken for alcoholics who are destroying their liver. it has the ability to block out toxins that would otherwise damage the liver and it has even been known to repair a liver that is already damaged,even with holes on the liver.
there is a certain extra amount that you should take if you are comsuming large amounts of chemicals/toxins/medicines as opposed for only maintenance. again, ask your doctor.
i'm sure that someone here is going to come down hard on me for saying all of this to you derbarbarian but just because you have to take all those medicines,and i'm sure you have to,it doesn't mean that you shouldn't try to protect yourself from secondary effects.
there is also a pill that your doctor can perscribe to help protect your organs(kidneys,liver,etc.) from having secondary negative effects(damage) from taking so many medicines/chemicals. in sorry but i forget the name of it right now but i'm sure your doctor knows it. ask your doctor about this.
again,i'm sorry to hear about your condition and i hope you get better.
please consult your doctor about anything i've said here before taking anything.
oh and ah,happy shooting with your new p99.
