Yes, 2 weeks and I had all the facts about it I wouldn’t have taken it.
I had a reaction went to bed OK 1 AM left leg and foot very swollen called. The nurse line told me to get to the ER.
The doctors did all kinds of testing and everything came out negative. They told me to go home and watch it as I had an appointment coming up with my main doctor. I put on 10 pounds of fluid in my left leg and it hurt. As soon as my doctor saw my leg, he knew what it was.
It is a drug you cannot just stop. You have to Titrate off. I did a half a dose for a few days, Then they cut it again, two more times before they told me not to take anymore. The first night I didn’t sleep I was wired.
But then I react to everything
I wish you the best
I am so sorry you had a bad reaction to G. It has helped me tremendously.
I have been taking it for a year now and it’s helped so much! It’s helped cut my migraines in half, while alleviating nerve pain throughout my body.
It has helped me a great deal.
It helped for a long time and then I couldn't tolerate it anymore. It made my shaking and neuropathy pain way worse. I just quit it. My dr was surprised you're supposed to slowly dc.
