Administrator Altostrata Posted September 12, 2016 Administrator Share Posted September 12, 2016 Zaz, do your symptoms follow any daily pattern? Please keep notes on paper about symptoms, when you take your drugs, and their dosages. This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.
