Most of those items are NOT diseases--they are simply symptoms. Those symptoms may come from almost any cause (especially if you include the "unexplained fatigue") from a nagging spouse to cancer. And yet Dr. Stoll has the gall to say that he has the cures, without any further clue as to what is causing the symptoms. Personally, I prefer a doctor who sometimes admits he doesn't know the cure--and spends a bit more time trying to get the facts. -- Sue Brezden ihnp4!drutx!slb ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I march to the beat of a different drummer, whose identity, location, and musical ability are as yet unknown. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
