Alfred, I have given you the all workarounds for every side effect you mentioned the last 3 months. And I am not going to repeat them all again. So, Please go back and read them and do them, they work. Like I have said before, It's about tradeoffs. You have to break the pain cycle with the meds to start healing and reducing your depression. To cope, I also watch alot of movies, play games, and read books, but at least my meds stop the burning pain. Dont take your meds on an empty stomach. Soda crackers at least. And add a daily salad to my previous constipation recs. YOU CAN DO THIS . If you are up to it try helping some folks on other blog threads the way I have been trying g to help you. It takes your mind in a different direction. 🙏
