Hi,
It is my understanding that it isn't uncommon for ppl to take 1000 - 2000 mg/d for a response, usually lasting 2-9 months and only raising the hgl high enough to not require tx.

To say I am lucky in my response is probably an under statement, because I remember how bad it can get. I went from not being able to climb 3 steps with extreme effort or help to being as normal as I could get.

I wish that they could find out why it works so well for me and give them clues on how to help others.

Cheers,
Lynn
