Sore toes. Legs swollen but left leg around ankle swells so bad that skin burns. Twitching of muscles and charley-horses so bad in my ribs that I can't wash myself in the shower without having to quickly stand straight up or my ribs will crack. Twitching of fingers due to muscle cramps. Scratching the cheeks of my face until bloody when I am not paying attention because of itching. Can't stay awake if not pre-occupied with a physical task. I have fallen asleep while someone was talking to me or while watching TV. Have fallen asleep while driving. This is over and over and over even when well rested. Feeling of something terribly wrong about one to two hours after taking my pill. Like I am dying. Severe chills, racing heart, starved for air. Can't get enough air. So bad sometimes, I am afraid I will have to call 911. During sleep, constantly having to urinate buckets overnight. Up almost every hour and when I go I must pee a half a gallon. Incredible thirst next day for pickle juice or kosher style pickles or orange or grapefruit juice. Plain water, coffee, milk, or tea doesn't satisfy. My doctor brushed off my complaints so I've now dropped him and have set up an appointment with a different one.
