I put something else because I wanted to select all of the above and it doesn't allow that! I can't wait to be able to take back my life!

In general, a better quality of life. I feel healthy and I know if I continue it will get better. My medications have dropped in half and in small doses.

Best wishes and Keep the Faith.
