After a stay in the hospital for my asthma 18 months ago, my doctor prescribed Singulair. I had already been taking Zyrtec for a long time. It finally dawned on me a few days ago, that it's primarily at night that I have difficulty breathing. Come to find out, this sensation starts not long after taking my Singulair. And even though I have fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis, I've noticed that the pain and aching have become so much worse - now that I think about it, since I've started taking Singulair. And the hair loss that I was attributing to getting older - the same thing, since around the time I started taking Singulair. I'm going to try not taking it for awhile and just hope my asthma doesn't get worse, because I've not had to use my puffer or be in the hospital since I started taking the Singulair. Wish some scientists would get working on this.
