Not sure if this is a sign that Verapamil isn’t working or if it’s an indication that weather be stronger than meds. Pressure in the ears…again feeling almost as if there’s an infection in one. Dizziness abounds. Difficulty getting myself upright in the morning. Today, we have a return of ‘the fog’. I feel warm…hot…and flushed, but no fever.
But here I am at work…again. Pouring rain, my friends, and I’m the only person on the road wearing sunglasses. I’m not taking any chances. Half the lights in my office are turned off.
Thank goodness I’m at this job and not the other. There’s no telling what I’d spray under my patient’s/friend’s armpits today!
Hi MJ,
Sorry you feel you are having a bit of a set-back. According to my doc it takes 4-6 weeks for verapamil to really kick in to get the full benefit and for many others it can take months. Hang in… dont’ be discouraged. Give it more time.
Best,
Lisa
MJ - feel better. I get those symptoms with this as well.

Well now…that’s just dandy…but really good to know. What’s your dose?
I didn’t bother with make-up today…and scared the peewad out of me when I saw me in the mirror this afternoon. I’m the short, gray crayon in the box. I may have to make myself make myself up. Spackle, anyone?
