It's THE only antibiotic I have used for many many years

You are an interesting clipper Balthazarus; I think I may have known you in another life . . . .
Or I may have may be "drunk" on aspartame instead of high on weed!

Glad you are healthy harleew, but somehow I think the pot smoking may be only part of it..but u never know..when I (ahem) dealt the stuff *I used to tout it as an exercise in MENTAL health, never thought of it beyond that.*By the way, I have 'done my time' and mended my evil ways.

LOL dollface - yep - my response was slightly tongue in cheek, my still being here has more to do with changing my thinking than anything I took

Pills & Potions are all a kinda placebo at the end of the day - real healing can only take place within
