Hey John... What do you mean diazepam is addictive? I've been taking it steady for 25 years and I'm not addicted yet! <<grin>>
Next thing you'll tell me is baclofen and pain meds are, too... hmmpf. Have a great day!

It looks like that address should be: _ www.nhif.bg _ (not .bq) And please remember, like several of us here have said, we are not doctors. We can only speak from our own experiences or what we have heard from others. There is no substitute for good medical advice, the recommendations of a couple of doctors who agree on a certain course of action, and the opinions of a professional community (like that website might help you find). I understand good medical help for quadriplegics might be difficult to find in Bulgaria. But it sounds like you have some good resources to possibly get the personal attention your case needs. Best wishes! --Tod
