Horrible Side effects - not for me

Side Effects

It’s great that so many folks are able to tolerate this drug well but it was not for me. After first dose of 2.5 mg, I had severe nausea, insomnia, and stomach ache. Yes, I followed all the suggestions of water and healthy food. After my second dose of 2.5 mg, my side effects were horrible, intense stomach ache, extreme nausea, diarrhea, and horrible horrible sulfur burps to the point when my kid ran away from me due to the smell of them. Waking up multiple times during the night and my HRV was severely affected as well. I can’t imagine the havoc this drug is causing to bodies at higher dosages. I work in healthcare so I understand every drug has side effects but I don’t want to jeopardize my GI system permanently with this drug. No more for me.
