Re: Methadone on backorder for nearly a month!
I had Walgreens transfer an opioid prescription to another pharmacy several years ago. The only problem was that the second pharmacy was also short and could only partially fill my prescription. They said that once they start filling a prescription, they cannot transfer back for a partial fill.

Re: Sugar and Chocolate problems
Not all chocolates are equal. Chocolate chemistry is extremely complicated. Even the taste of a cheap chocolate versus quality chocolate of the same type (milk, semisweet, dark, etc) will vary. The reason has to do with the processing and how many of the flavors make it into the product that you con...

The reason for such a wide range is that RLS occurs more frequently in those of northern European ancestry and "rarely" in Africa, so there is a question of what "population" you are referencing against. There ...
