hi
I am glad he is doing well. I can only pass along my experience, each person seems to be effected differently.
Make sure he drinks alot, I usually drank one gatorade a day not just water ( I actually had overhydrated myself one time by drinking too much water so had to add gatorade or vitamin water)
For me the first month was easier than I thought. I had headaches but turns out was probably from coffee withdrawals. I had nausea the first day or so but medicine helped that. I did much better than I expected. I definitely felt that maybe they werent giving me the drug at all and my my doctor kidded that I was doing too well.
Once I started the low dose that is when side effects built up on me. It took about a month. My symptoms were very tired, dizzy when I bent down, hair loss, and the big one was most food tasted like it had gone bad. I lost a lot of weight because it was so hard to eat anything.
I hope that he continues to well and has no side effects, you are in my prayers
take care

Hi Brenda,
You and kevin are very dear to all of us. I love that your wrote himynameisbrenda just like he did
I am a true believer that a persons spirit/soul can reach you from heaven and that they can be there for you when you need it most. As strong as Kevin was I am sure he is making sure he is watching over you. Dont you ever question how strong you are, you both wen thru that together -you both are warriors. I am hoping that you are finding moments of peace thru all of this.
