UUUGGGHHHH- Feeling Big Time Icky!

[Madison]

Good AM everyone...

Sorry to be a party pooper first thing in the morning and I know I'm just complaining, but I needed to vent real quick if that is OK....

I was whimping out about starting on Topa because of the potential side effects.... finally got up the guts to take it-- slept great but I am SO dang tired today and just cannot seem to wake up! Plus I am nauseous..... man. My fears seem to have come true. (Either that or I'm a hypocondriac!!

Gotta do something to feel better quick-- I need to get 2 of my kiddos up soon for school and then I have the other 2 all day, so I've gotta be at the top of my game. A good reminder that health is a gift, and I sure as hell should not be wasting it away with booze.

I think I'm gonna take some alka setzer and make another pot of coffee..... and watch "Intervention" on demand to stay motivated!!!

Have a good day guys.... thanks for listening!

Madi

Madison, eww.. sorry you feel that way. I have never taken topa but I'll just throw in a 2 cents anyway. I wish you wouldn't do the coffee.... It is such an irritant to your stomach, intestines and central nervous system and it depletes you of your water level. Take a lookie at the water thread in holistic healing. Try tea instead. Peppermint tea is naturally caffeine free and is a stimulant AND good for an upset tummy. You could use yerba matte tea with a bit of honey for a lift. Or some fresh ginger and lemon as a tea. Again, good for your stomach. And do check your fears. The self-fulfilling prophecy is real. :l

Madison - I don't know what dosage of topa you are on but I started out on 25mg a day for a week and didn't notice a thing, then was upped to 25mg twice a day for a week and so on - I have never had any side effects. What dosage did you start out out??? Pm me if you want to.
