- kezmuscMemberBrilliantly written.
Why, I wonder, do the medical and scientific professions not search out these stories to see what's really going on. There are so many of them, so many people with the same issues and thoughts and yet the list of possible side effects is so small and how to handle them so placating. If you differ from what's on the list you are classed as a rare or extreme case. To me it appears there is an awful lot of "rare" cases getting around.
Crowd sourcing would provide so much more insight, whether or not anything comes of it is another thing.Sign in to react to this post - Kiwi_AngelMemberGreat and true read - just posted it to my Facebook page.Sign in to react to this post
- Brenda5MemberI miss having energy. I scrolled back on a conversation in facebook pre bc op and I had done 6 loads of washing, vacc'd the house and changed my bed sheets all in one day! Now I do no washing (my hubby does it), I vac only one room and it takes days for me to get the fortitude to change bed sheets. I cleaned rainbow bird do do off a chair on the veranda yesterday. That stuff is like cement and went to get a towel from the bathroom cupboard to cover the chair. I got dizzy in the cupboard and had to sit down. I did get the towel out though.Sign in to react to this post
