thanks for that Alsdad,

I always refused the offer of the peg + ribas for my son.

This tx , sof/Led, is a world away from that dreadful stuff.

I hope they're not still pushing it onto kids, I hope their tx trials are super quick ones..

My son has had no side affects, & is as healthy as anything now, thanks to Doc James.
