Vergie (and everyone else!),

Appreciated the Niacin hint--will keep it in mind.  About recommending "Advil
600-800":  Advil is one brand name of Ibuprofen (first marketed as Motrin).
 The Advil brand is manufactured by American Home Products, which is
affiliated with Nestle & is part of the Nestle boycott.  Please suggest to
your MD that generic Ibuprofen be recommended, rather than referring to Advil
by name.  Many people don't understand that there's no difference between
different brands of the same drug; they just buy "what the doctor ordered".
