Hi,

It is frustrating when you ask q's and never get a response. I've had it happen more than once. Unfortunately, all websites have that general tendency. There's something about subject titles catching peoples eye & attention. So, word your title carefully.

Another idea is to put your post in both general discussion as well as the specific topic area.

Lastly, a lot of the website activity nowadays is in the chatroom. Not my preference, for sure, but that's the way it is. So, if you really need support or ideas & aren't getting it elsewhere, go to the chatroom to share.

Funny, I always try to answer Q's that aren't getting responses, so the writer doesn't feel as though no one cares. I don't remember seeing anything about caritine though. Are you talking about the vitamin in carrots? I, personally, don't know much either way. That may be another reason why you didn't receive a response.

Hope that helps. Do take care!

thank you. i would also like to answer questions and respond to posts with no comments so the writer will know somebody read it.  i was referring to a caritine, a prescribed vitamin given to people who take depakote to help with the tremors . its ok though, i googled it:).. thank you again
