SailPappy.
You raise an interesting point about the legal aspect of shrooms. But anything that stops or even MIGHT stop a CH seems very reasonable after a few days or weeks of no sleep. On the legal side, I seem to remember a man in the US who was not only allowed to smoke dope, but was supplied by the US government back in the 70s. He had glaucoma and the reefer-madness reduces the pressure inside the eye. At the time, it was the only thing that worked and so he used it. (I'd hate to put this to the test though!*S*) I like to think I'm a law-abiding citizen, but given the opportunity I would try the shrooms and the law be damned. After all, the medical community isn't able to prevent a CH with anything they now have. The few drugs that DO work have some fairly hellish side effects as well. As far as I know the shrooms have about ZERO bad side effects in reasonable doses. Well, anyway this is just my two cents worth and I wish you well, both with the CH and the Hep C.
