    Claire, maybe you just stop taking this medication it seems it’s hurting you a lot more than it’s helping you!!

    Again I agree with Joe (,great minds think alike lol). I can understand some of the side effects like the stomach issues but the bruises are another thing. Call your doctor and see if u can either try a different med or explain to u why you have the bruises. 🐾

    Hey Claire I didn’t even make it this long sometimes it just doesn’t agree with people considering all of what you’re saying you should probably stop taking it.  Also consider how long you’ve been on it you may need to taper off to avoid any further issues.  Call your doctor and seek their advice before listening to anyone else.  There are plenty of other options as far as medication goes.  Good luck.
