Sorry hun - I forgot we get al our scripts free here. It's cheap from supermarkets though if you get just the basic folic acid. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | No, i don't get it free off doc. It is so cheap in the shops and on ebay. My OH started taking it last month, check this out:
'New research also shows that men who have a folic acid deficiency could notice a 90% reduction in their sperm count. If men suffering with partial infertility take folic acid it is proclaimed to increase the quality and quantity of their sperm.' |
