Glad hearing that all worked out well for you.
Not all forced dealing with The White Coat Crowd end up so lucky.

From own personal experience with prescription drugs pretty-much: "Pushed" by
most; "Practicing" Physicians for perks, I've concluded that the very best thing to
ever come down the Medical Pike FOR ME is called; "A Pill Cutter", if feel something not right.

Most doctors I've run across seem to believe that regarding pills,..."One size fits all".
Such just not so. Can't believe that A 5 Footer requires very same dope as A 7 Footer.
Nor, are totally wrong meds ever good for anyone of any size, either.

Besides staying lucky Pack,...stay vigilant.
Even the very best doctor on earth can't honestly know how YOU FEEL.
If "It" doesn't make you feel better and actually makes you feel worse,...just don't take "It".

Deb and Lori ran home and got on the computer....every friggn thing happening to me was a result of meds. Too tired to continue for now....body worn out....will talk at you soon.
I love all of y'all.......thanks everybody.

I still believe it was that you started sipping French Wine again! French Wine will cause all the above symptons because you'll start acting like the French. Buy Washington Wine, much safer.

Pak-ma-man - had a bought with Niacin in Sept. thought I was going to die. Weird reaction not allegery per the Doc in the Hospital. Just saw my VA Doc and they put me back on the stuff again but I have to take two 81mg asprin 30 min. prior to taking my 500mg Niacin tablet. Been on them again for about a week so far no reaction. But I can't go to sleep for an hour after I take this stuff just to make sure I wake up in the next day.

Pill's never took them until about 5 years ago now my sink is loaded with my drugs. Wife has about seven she takes and I'm going broke just filling all of them. VA takes care of me and I take care of her. What a way to live out your Golden Years poppiing pills morning and night.

God Speed Packman - I'm thinking of you.

If you are 100% SC, your wife can get CHAMPVA for free which will cover almost 100% of all her meds. If your not.....GET THERE! Thanks so much for caring....all you sons o' bitches!

Better living through chemistry! Just think, if you lived 100 years ago with the same ailments, you'd've died young. Of course they did have leeches and bleeding, purgatives and diuretics, etc. In those days the cure was almost as bad as the ailment.
