Melody, thanks so much for confirming my suspicions. It feels good to have someone relate to these weird feelings. I can't wait to get off these drugs too. I'm not sure what I hate worse some days, the side effects or the pain itself....pretty bad!

I hate this feeling of Russian Roulette when trying a new medication...when will I have to pull out the Epi-pen or call the ambulance again? I think it's harder on my poor husband than on me at times like that.
