    Thanks everyone;
    I take 250 mg 2x daily. The other interesting facts are, since last fall along with the problems with my Spleen, I had no appetite and I was having trouble with constipation. Those were a daily problem which have now been resolved since starting the V.A.

    Take care

    Update for those interested in this treatment.
    My hemoglobins have been 117 for the past two weeks and I have be extremely busy and active, therefore burnging them up.
    Last night at a hockey game, I jogged up three flights of stairs and back down again in a row. For the simple reason that I could and hardly out of breath. Before starting this treatment I couldn’t have walked up them, unless it was directly after a tx, even then it would have cost me for several days.
