Congresswoman symptoms and conditions

On the fda;s cder web site is a calender of meetings,there is also a calender for tentative meetings,tentively scheduled on dec 10 and 11 is a meeting of asthma allergy,risk management and drug safety,we know they hired public relations so we wonder if maybe they will be there,as this investigation comes to an end,i wonder is there more we could have done,i don't think so,i am perturbed that we were not contacted after we filed our reports,as i wonder how they will get the rest of the story.It is my understanding that these meetings are open to the public,unless otherwise specified,there is no specification on this one yet,i hope if any one is in the Dc area and they have a chance to go they will tell us what is said.I hope they look into the chances of some having maybe perm issues and give us guidance,they have been silent for so long as we have battled this in the dark.If by scheduling this meeting the investigation is over and they have a conclusion and our not going public yet ,well shame on them,if there is one thing we are disparate for is information as to what to do next,heres hoping every one,keep fighting

I wanted to post an update on my contact with the Congresswoman's office , which I am communicating with.The ALA study we were all so upset with,was originally done by Merck,what a surprise!The FDA did contact me and state that they look at all the available data and have even reviewed this site.I am reiterating how important it is to contact your representative in Congress,they are trying to form a coalition for better notification practices.Our Congresswoman Kirsten Gillibrand is working with other members and looking for more to contact her office, that have families they represent.Also the Parents United for Pharmaceutical Safety and Accountability group that Jenna has formed is a very important tool.I will hand deliver it to Washington if we get enough people to get involved.The FDA is taking more time than we would all like but,if they have hired more staff and hopefully that alone will expedite this investigation along.I hope the awareness level rises when WBZT out of Boston airs our stories.Again Please Make a nuisance out of yourself with your Congress Rep. it will help to make it a law to expedite important information on added side effects to the doctors and pharmacist .All of us need to come togehter as one voice and it will make a stronger statement.When the advocacy website is up and running,we can all help by taking the time to contact those who have posted to sign up and get involved.The importance of this was stressed to me by the Congresswoman's staff.I also walked in a Suicide Awareness and Prevention walk over the weekend,I took the opportunity to hand out flyers I printed. They contained information on the serious side effects such as suicidal thoughts and actions, so people that may have had a loved one die from suicide and taking SINGULAIR could make the connection.Many have not made the connection and they are unaware of the link!!!!!!!
I am looking for all avenues to travel, any ideas are appreciated.I have scanned a print out of a sheet that is an alert to post in schools and emailed it to Jenna,if you would like a copy send me a private email and your email address.A family member worked with the School nurse in her hometown and made this a communication tool.You can start at that level and just white out the name of the town and the nurse add your own or nothing just the alert.We went to all the local schools and there is no liability it just states the facts,good for the bulletin board in community centers also!Do what you can to help,it is grass roots efforts that brought this country to what it is now.Even through disappointments we still have the freedom to try to make change.Kate M.

I am posting an email address for people that have stopped dispensing this drug and see the symptoms of the side effects disappear.Please tell all who have seen a change in their child or loved one to email this woman.I met with Dr.Sarah Sellers and other members from the FDA in Washington DC she is in charge of Safety Review in the office of Surveillance and Epidemiology.This is critical in the investigation into SINGULAIR .Everyone wants to help and this is how to begin.The email is sarah.sellers@fda.hhs.gov Our Congresswoman has requested the TV advertisement for SINGULAIR to be changed,they are stating mild side effects and that is not known to be true at this time.I am reaching out to all of you who have posted and that know anyone who has ,to please do this along with filing on ******.We have to work within the guidelines of the system,this will certainly help the investigation to be more accurate.My husband and I are in this to help all the families that have suffered so greatly,take this opportunity to help also.Thank You in advance Kate and David M.

I am posting again to say to click on SINGULAIR in the news on this page and you will see a story on exactly what this drug is capable of.This story was aired in New york but also went out to other nbc affiliated stations.I am the mom of the boy that died ,and am now planning a trip to Washington DC with a NY.Senator and Congresswoman.We are going to speek to the FDA and request that this drug be reevaluated for safety reasons.If they will consider also a black box warning on the label that would also help parents to know the seriousness of the side effects.If you have questions you can send me a private email and I will do the best I can to direct you in helping in your State.
