I have struggled with frequent bouts of insomnia since high schools. I've tried almost every prescription sleep aid on the market with less than positive results. They often left me feeling exhausted, had vivid, violent dreams, and overslept numerous times. Melatonin has been a life-saver. I take the 5 mg pill a half hour before bed and I sleep pretty well; almost the whole night through.

My daughter has received two doses/injections since last summer, since I have noticed a change in her well being. She complains of headaches, blacking out, unsteady gait, pain to her legs, and now has missed her period for the last 3 months, well this being the 4th month. I was blaming hormones as with the personality/moody changes. Her eye dr said her vision is fine, but I notice her squinting to see distance, her pediatrician says she has inherited my migranes, and that she has an aura (the... View full comment

Would prefer natural medication but Dr. said Olmetec Plus is good. Ankles painful at tendons on heel and above. Urine is clear white. Kidney function down. He is watching that now. Taken this for 1 year so far and blood pressure came down right away and is good. I am watchful about side effects that Drs. don't tell or know about. This kidney stuff bothers me. Just for your info. I am 66 years old and have been in great health so far. Maybe I have just been spoiled by God's good grace an... View full comment

I am happy with it, don't get me wrong, but I just wish I wouldn't have become another person to not get panic attacks. I've gotten a really bad short term memory, and numb feelings. I get confused a lot too, not knowing what to chose, or what to do, periods like that, not really all the time.

I told my daughter not to take the shots, it was too new and was unfortable with it and recommended she not have it. When she went for physical the doctor recommened she have it. She said she didn't want it, but it felt like it was being forced a bit, so she took it. She didn't feel well for a couple of weeks afterwards. She wasn't sleeping well and she felt like she was itchy. The doctor persuaded her again to receive the second shot. I was furious because now there were reports of yo... View full comment
