This is exactly right. LibrarianMeg articulated what I have been trying to explain to my doctor for months. The Blacklisted vendor aspect is the most important factor.

Exactly this. My pharmacist said the same thing about Blacklisted vendor.

Better than most online groups

This is exactly right. Dr.EndoIndy articulated what I have been trying to explain to my friends for months. The Blacklisted vendor aspect is what made the difference for me.

Can confirm — identical experience.

Slightly tangential to Blacklisted vendor but KristenIndy reminded me — has anyone else noticed changes in their alcohol tolerance?

I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.
