You may not have that, so calamine lotion maybe?

Status: offline 		I can't explain it I am just dead tired emotionally and mentally, but I don't want to sleep my whole body just burns and tingles specially my neck and I keep thinking I am smelling something sharp and bitter like Mentholatum under my nose and I'm not.

I'm thirsty again, but I'm full so I can't drink all the water I want


I also feel like maybe I'd like to puke  my lunch if I continued putting more liquid in my tummy than I did with soup for lunch.
wonder what that's all about.

Make an appointment and continue to take your meds and track anything you think is out of the ordinary and like I said continue to take your meds as perscribed.Stopping your meds on your own can cause your treatment to be hindered.

You can also call your pharmasists about questions regarding your medication and a good doctor wont care if you call 100s if you have real questions or concerns.

I have been on my current medications for almost 6 mths and the previous ones for almost 1.5 yrs and I always called my doctors if I felt strange things happening to me. Infact before I started my current regiment of antibiotics I questiooned both my doctor and pharmasist.

If I couldn't reach him I spoke spoke to my therapist who spoke to the office manager who then called me back. It is YOUR responsibility to be your own advocate.

Status: offline 		I almost fell down on Sunday, I was standing there and all of a sudden my world just tilted and I fell back and I grabbed Daddy and hung on for dear life, if he wasn't there I would of slammed my head on the table and cracked it on the concrete when I fell, and been lying alone for hours before any one could come help, I also told that to dr o neal and he don't believe it's my meds doing it so he didn't seem to take me seriously.

Status: offline 		Once I had been on a set of pills that worked for awhile (several weeks) then one night I got light headed and dizzy. I felt like I was drunk. My daughter called 911 and I was rushed to the hospital and I was told it had dropped my blood pressure. So you have to be very cautious especially when first starting them.

Edited to add: Why not go outside with Ginger for awhile and get some fresh air, it might help.
