Has This Happened To You or Anyone You Know?

Lisa, I'm sorry that you're still not feeling well. I thought that you had finally found a great doctor who was helping you. I hope that your doctor will be able to help you and that you'll start feeling better. Please take care. ((((HUGS))))

The one doctor did get me over the pneumonia and I was beginning to feel better. Then I started having symptoms of pain and not feeling well again. All her tests (for pneumonia) were coming back negative. I'm suppose to be doing a follow-up with her on the 18th. They switched my meds in May and I do believe this is why I started feeling bad again. If you read symptoms on pneumonia and pancreatitis several are similar! I had no clue it could be due to medication until this was found on the internet!

That seems like a pretty good indicator of an adverse drug reaction! Please contact the drug manufacturer if this turns out to be the case. Don't count on your doctor to do it; do it yourself. The manufacturer should be on the bottle; if not, ask the pharmacist.

Quite often the pharma industry doesn't know about ADRs for a long time since they count on doctors and patients to report them.

I sure will!! The sad part is this pain is the same side the pneumonia was on. I believe that's why no one was thinking anything else but to keep testing for this.
