Are you using it with pain relief?? Ongoing trials are looking into ways of improving the onset of pain relief in sickle cell patients. One study involves giving pain relief on lump sugar...
See http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00874172
Have you asked the doctor why he wants you to give lump sugar?
I would be interested in the doctors answer.
