Started 3 weeks ago. At first the side effects were hard to handle (hot /cold flashes, sweating, tiredness, cold hands). Now my body has adjusted to it and it has brought my blood pressure down and lessened my heart rate. It's important to wait it out 2 weeks because it took that long to start working. Taking 25 mg 2 x pd with hydrochlorithiazide. No other health issues!

I liked it because it kept me focused in school but it made me have a depressive empty feeling so they took me off of it.

About a week later, I tried it again one morning and within an hour had a violent vomiting episode. I stopped. I researched Candex and heard nothing about vomiting,... View full comment

I was put on Lyrica for fibromyalgia. I started out on a very low dose since I don't handle meds very well. 25 mg once a day for two days, then 50 mg for two days, then 75 mg for two days, then 100 mg for two days. On the day after I took 75mg (I took the pills at night) I started bleeding! I am post menopause. Haven't had a period in over 16 months. Now I'm having a hard time. I feel very weak an dizzy from the bleeding. I go back to to the doctor tomorrow to do blood work to see wha... View full comment
