Hi I have watch a number of these vidoes and have found everyone of them very informative and interesting. I also asked to go to a specialist and was put on a trial (FCR +M). I was very excited that this guy has been ok for a decade. Its more than what I had hoped for. So I'm now very optimistic. Best wishes.
