Hi, AKC...
I agree that all problems cannot, and should not, be solved through litigation. But, the point is, there is, or can be, no arbitrary line drawn in the sand as to which policy is right or wrong in whichever situation. Each individual , of course, is going to have different results with their medication...but I think it is when some people begin to feel that they are the unwitting,and i'm sure, unwilling, test subjects for drug companies too motivated by money rather than safe results, that litigation comes to bear. Certain drugs are a heaven-send to many people, but that should not mean that the claims of others should be dismissed because of it. And, like you stated, you were lucky in that you found anecdotal evidence on the web...that accounts for something also. Basically i think we agree in essence, and i'm happy that you found success in your medication. Continued luck and best wishes.
