Benoni, ZA

Sometimes when I drink my c/l i get nausias. That then carry on for a week or two. All of a sudden it disapear. For a long time. Just i think I overcome that it start again.

Hi Frik, I don't know enough about medication to give any opinion except to discuss it with the doctor.
The sleeplessness wouldn't bother me much, but the nausea would bother me very, very much. I hope you find a solution to the problem soon.
