Millie, If there's "something rotten with her" why go? I know you have your reasons and its none of my business, but you know how noisy and pushy I am. I wish you could find the right doctor. Are you drinking water? My husband and I mix just a little pure fruit juice(usually pure cranberry juice(bittter) with water and that helps us drink more. But you may be beyond that stage now. I hesitate to give you any advice, I don't want to hurt you. Love, Sally
