New meds are No Fun sometimes

[cjsmith]

I've tried all the things that had a good chance of helping my foot problems. Now I'm trying the extreme long shots. This month it's a medication for neuropathic pain. First dose was this morning.

I am dizzy and queasy. I can't tell whether I'm too hot or too cold. My hands are a little shaky. None of this is severe, but it all adds up to Unpleasant. Why, oh why, did I take my first dose of this thing on a day I had this much work to do?

Wow, I didn't even get to POST this. That was quick. I'm back from the restroom now. I think I feel better.

Thanks! Google says one to two weeks. I might not wait it out that long.
