Drugs .... Give Me Drugs! (Rx or OTC)

I wanted to set up topic areas for people in the SLEEP Forum at Lumigrate.com which are similar to what has worked with Fibromyalia Forum: Provide the base structure and then let others start topics too.  My intention with Lumigrate is to provide a progressive, valid, streamlined, fun health and well-being website experience (and related facebook and Twitter) that maintains what Aretha Franklin would say 'R-E-S-P-E-C-T'.  Please keep  read more »
