Street signs symptoms and conditions

I was given Advair by the doctor's office they started it there at about 1:00 PM in the afternoon and I started have chest pain, coughing, wheezing etc. by 6:00 PM at night. I was not even given a rescue inhaler. They "think" I may have asthma again but I have not been on an inhaler for years. I am not getting enough oxygen in my blood, especially during the night. Needless to say, I quit taking it and called the doctor's office the next morning. It has taken 12 days for the nurse to get back to me. She said the doctor recommended that I start taking it again but did not offer any rescue inhaler. I told her that I live in a remote location, no street signs even and that my nearest neighbor is on vacation. We all have 20+ acres each so no one is close and I am alone. She brushed aside my comments and said of course, it was up to me if I wanted to continue it. After reading many of these comments, I am not sure I want to even try it again.

I just started taking Topamax about 2 1/2 months ago -- am up to 50 mg now, and had hit 75 when the side effects became so bad that I went online and discovered that my neurologists had been pretty lax with their advice. They told me that Top. was "a great drug for migraines" and that I might "lose a few pounds," and have "some memory issues at first" but that was it. I believed them and so didn't research further.

20 pounds later (I HAD been on a diet, and thought I lost the weight myself) I started experiencing sore throat in the morning and stomach pain (acid from Topamax). I thought I had appendicitus. So I hit the boards. Weight loss was from theTopamax (and my diet coup goes out the window) Appendicitus --probably not. Oh, also I can't be relied on to remember words or sentences or thought structure; or how to move thoughts into words. And it's not like the words are on the tip of my tongue, etiher. They are gone, as if they never existed. The oddest thing! Professional hell. Hair has yet to fall out. I'm going to have to wean myself off, I suppose, and get ready to ream out the neurologists. If I can remember their names or where they practice....

Hi all:

I was given an injection into the nasal tip about a month after septoplasty, to reduce swelling.

I left the office and midway home, about 20 minutes after leaving,, my vision blurred so completely that I could no longer read the street signs. I did not have a cell phone at the time, and somehow I made it safely home without needing to see totally clearly, likely because I was familiar with the route and could still make out large landmarks. My vision improved somewhat after stopping the injections, but not completely.

Recently, too, a new veterinarian treating my dog switched to triamcinolone injectables, instead of using the dogs normal depo medrol injection for hypo-adrenalism. I was not apprised of the switch and the dog began exhibiting severe muscle wasting, and weakness Finally, I checked the bottle and saw that it was triamcinolone not depo medrol. I was pretty darned upset, and requested that he be switched back

The dog is slowly gaining weight and muscle, but at one point he had lost so much muscle we feared he would die.
