**** Hi Smitty.  Yes -- I researched Histoplasmosis, and found the same 
information.  I have to think that his doctors believe that he has a mild form 
because they did not prescribe medications for him, except for the inhalers.  
That's why I'm trying to find alternative solutions.  Thanks for your input.  MA
