Lyme disease? Antibiotics online. People are
horrified by bird biotics, but inside the bottle the

the price with no doctor visit.
Cough or cold? Homeopathic medicines.
Doctors have been nothing but disappointing for me.

Medicine that cost me $30 in 1991 is now available OTC
in the local dollar store.
Many meds available online from overseas.
