My husband was already having dizzy spells and that is what sent us to the doctor. I don't know if the medication made it better or worse. I do know the medication was cut back from 4 to 3 pills a day and the dizzy spells seem to have slowed down. My husband has been bedridden since Dec. He is not strong enough to stand anymore.
Motivate with a positive drive for life but still its hard to see him so weak. We were so active together. Enjoy everyday you can with your love one.

Should you take it before you eat or after? I am on 25/250 now. Twice a day. Was on 25/100 2 times.

My dosage was just increased 3 days ago. I felt strange the 2nd day all of a sudden. Nausea, tired, just had to sit down quick, let my dinner set, unable to eat anymore. In a little while I was ok. No other problems so far.

I am trying different times and amounts. Sometimes better and sometimes bad but I am still working with it. When I get it right I feel better. It makes me feel like I have a bunch of liquid in my head and can’t turn my head or look up. It’s not dizziness exactly but a bad feeling.
