Hi odette and Michelle

many thanks for your replies... glad to hear you are tolerating the drugs well..

its so nice to be able to talk to others that are on this combination of drugs.. here in england it is very rare as i have already said.. tykerb is not licenced..

i'll keep in mind the tips you have given me so far and keep you posted on how i'm doing..

much love across the miles
