Tums

User Ratings:
7	Effectiveness
1.4	Side Effects
5.7	Holistic Benefits

Tums helps alleviate minor stomach problems. However it does not help for anything which causes a lot of pain. It helps with minor annoyances. Yes it does help some pain go away, but it isnt pain that is unbearable, it is just as easy to wait out the pain.

Cymbalta

I was taking Cymbalta for nerve pain, which it did help for the first two weeks then all hell broke lose. Stopping Cymbalta was terrible even though I was only on the Cymbalta for 4 weeks. This drug is dangerous for the nerve pain patient. I took it for 4 weeks (low dose) and it took four weeks to we... View full comment

Yaz

6.1	Holistic Benefits

For the first year that I was taking Yaz it was great - regular and much lighter periods, zero cramps, zero PMS. It was really wonderful considering I used to have very heavy and irregular periods, extremely horrible cramps, and pretty bad PMS (irritability, mood changes, bloating, fatigue, appetite increase, etc.). Yaz made that all disappear. I swore by it, I really did. But recently, just within the past couple months, I have spotting ALL THE TIME (sometimes like a full on period in the m...
