040912 - 3. Thank you for your research on Reufoman, giving me your
040913 - opinion. [...responding to letter on 120529 1136. ref SDS 11

040918 - 4. I stopped taking it after the 3rd day, reading online the side
040919 - effects. I had already noticed an increase in appetite,
040920 - inability to sleep and a "high energy" feeling but fatigued
040921 - from not being able to sleep, as steroids do this, not a feel
040922 - good feeling. I mentioned all of this to my girlfriend who
040923 - gave me these pills and really don't think she was aware of or
040924 - had read anything online about it. Charmagne's hips had gotten
040925 - so bad, pain that she wasn't able to go to the gym and had
040926 - gained weight which caused her diabetes to get worse. So the
040927 - doctor put her on an additional medication to the one she
040928 - already has to take (which has severe long term side effects).
040929 - Charmagne is desperate to lose weight since then she can be
040930 - taken off this recent prescription and with the relief she has
040931 - gotten from the Reumofan, felt she could get back to the gym.
040932 - Anyway, she said she wasn't going to be on it long term.

040934 - [On 120606 0900 Rob reported he tried Reufoman with good
040935 - initial results, but stopped due to risks of adverse side
040936 - effects. ref SDS 13 WV55

040939 - 5. I however, have decided to not take it and will continue on
040940 - what you so generously sent me from Costco:):)

040943 - Robin references Glucosamine Chondroitin sent to her from Costco

040966 - 6. So, yesterday, I woke up extremely dizzy, lightheaded but made
040967 - it to work on half a brain so to speak. I decided to stick it
040968 - out since I was leaving early @ 2 to go to two doctor appts. I
040969 - saw the ENT about my dizziness. Dr.Stewart, ENT, said I had
040970 - "Benign Positional Vertigo", very common and that he himself
040971 - has experienced it. He sees three to four peeps a week with
040972 - this. Debris gets into the ear canal which is next to the
040973 - brain, fluid from the brain drains down into the ear canal and
040974 - tries to "SHAKE" it out as to why a person experiences severe
040975 - spinning, dizziness which causes nausea, vomiting, sweating
040976 - etc. ugh!! Dr.Stewart said there is no known reason as to how
040977 - or why there is debris in the ear canal or nothing that can be
040978 - done about it. It will work itself out, clear up within one to
040979 - two weeks. However, Dr. Stewart told me that I will
040980 - experience it again before the year is up..OMG!!! I don't know
040981 - what I would do if I was driving, seriously it is scary! Too,
040982 - just the thought of knowing I'm going to be that sick again and
040983 - it lasts for a few hours, the most intense symptoms...:(
040985 - ..
040986 - 7. Then I went to see Dr. Lawler [...on 31 May 2012...], the knee
040987 - surgeon and told him my woes about my knee. Dr. Lawler
040988 - examined my knee and told me that it will take my knee longer
040989 - to completely heal since I have a fair amount of arthritis in
040990 - it but that it will get better. He gave me a cortisone
040991 - injection to accelerate the healing process. So, as of know my
040992 - knee feels fine and hope to get started back to the gym next
040993 - week, gotta do something or I'm going to fall apart. Besides,
040994 - I recently heard that exercise is good for menopause too, yay!
040996 - ..
