In the meantime son is taking 13 pills a day & dealing with horrid side effects...swollen ankles/constant urination/fatigue/no appitite..he just got a new job & if he misses more time off im afraid he will get fired. I feel like a terrible mum b/c i said to just "tough it out" till march & we can get some Answers!~ Im worried he may get worse from now till march..maybe im over-reacting..i dunno. are these common side effects...any suggestions on how to deal? ~~Sue Posted on 02/09/08, 12:02 am |
