You need to weigh up the side effects of this drug versus its usefullness. If the side effects cause your quality of life to decease really think hard about continuing the treatment. Ask your doc about alternatives!! There are times I felt that surgery was preferrable to the side effects bought about by drugs. Also read previous posted messages on diet & natrapathetic treatments whcih may allow you to consider a medical treatment to use in conjuntion with less side effects.
