    It's not a good idea to piggyback your question on to someone else's question. It only leads to confusion and your question may not get answered.

    Therefore, I have moved your question to t thread of it's own.

    For an accurate answer, you are going to provide more information.

    Please stop asking the same question. As J9 said, what's the situation? Loss of patients? What?
