for your input. One has to be a step ahead of the Medical Co's, eh! One Dr told me it was all a crock of shit and that they weren't dangerous - it was just a ploy by the manufacturer to place more demand on their product.
Here in Perth, I paid $27 for 2 tablets.
I learnt later that if the Dr had declared that I was a Migrain sufferer and nothing else would kill the pain, I would have got them for $3.50!!
Of course you know what I did on a visit to a different Dr!!. It is a fact though, that they cannot prescribe more that 12 of these tablets without fear of being challenged by the authorities. But thank God they work - I had 2 cycles (of 8 weeks each) within 12months and had decided that I couldn't cope anymore - I could see myself admitting myself into hospital for fear of trying to find a gun.
