[QUOTE="agavegertie, post: 402720, member: 28951"] Well you could try them, but if you experience ANY side effects that are painful just do as I eventually did and refuse to take them. There are some people for whom they cause such drastic and painful side effects it is not worth taking them. My GP has realised this is the case with me and he often asks me to speak to medical students who visit his surgery for education which includes meeting patients and talking about their health with them. He feels its important for up and coming doctors to realise that not everyone can benefit from various drugs and each individual should be catered for. Your doctor sounds like one who just follows the lead of whatever his health authority demands - you may take them and suffer no nasty side effects but as I say if you do get them - just say NO.
