Took 2, 6day packs 4mg for 2 ruptured discs causing crippling back pain. Could not walk much at all or stand straight. Im 37 years old male, have always avoided any meds if possible. Results: Back pain went away after 10 days, along with good chiropractor visits, cold pack treatments throught the day and lots of lying flat on my back wearing a brace provided by chiropractor. Side Effects: -Sleepy during day, difficult to sleep at night. -Slightly blurred vision. -Constipated at times and loose at times, small amounts blood in stool three times. -Frequent trips to urinate with uneven flow all the time. -Have had slight occurances of heartburn. -One week after 12 days treatment was over the pain returned more and more and I started to peel on my face without being in the sun, without redness and I have been well hydrated. -Maybe depressed but may also be caused from needing to cancel scuba diving trip due to condition. Starting to take 6 day pack again for returning pain. Wish me luck...thanks

Why would you even want to try it again. It sound the cure is worse then the disease.

why would you want to try this medication again after the problems you had the first time. Sounds like the cure is worse then the diseas.
