After I found out I had allegies my doctor tried a variety of different medicines but none seemed to work. After giving me Zyrtec I felt the relief within an hour. The watery eyes and itchy feelings went away and it felt great to be back to normal.

Occasionally i feel a tingly feeling on my lip and as soon as i apply aciclovir it removes the fever blister before it becomes large and painful.

I began running the end of January 2010 and my knee pain became worse and I began to experience intermal swelling that was noticable on the outside. I checked in with my orthopedic doctor, accupuncturist, natural path, physical therapist and my neurosurgeon with no relief. However, my neurosurgeon sent me to a non-surgical neurologist/occupational therapist, Dr. James Nelson, who is also a runner. Dr. Nelson ordered an MRI to make sure that structurally there were no issues. I do have na... View full comment

I have suffered from Menier's disease for 13 years. Despite the ups and downs of this condition, i did not let it control my life. My advice to sufferers: Exercise regularly Avoid salt at all costs Avoid Cigarettes Avoid Alcohol Take your tablets regularly Forget about the condition: The more you think about it, the more you get upset and depressed Enjoy your life fully Avoid reading too much about the condition on the Internet When you have an attack, lie down and sleep if you fee...
