Read everything you can about the medication. There are several web sights that can tell you alot about any medication out there.Education is one of the best weapons you can have to help battle fibro.

The only way to really find that out is to stop the medication for a time (if you can) and see if the things happening stop when the medicine stops. Then if they do you'll know it's a side effect. If it is a side effect you have to decide if the positive effects of the medicine outweigh the negative effects of the side effects it causes. Hope that helps ☺

I am so sensitive to drugs that I just had to go to organic food and herbs and EFAs. I just can't take anymore and side effects are more.
