Re: TDM-1 side effects
Hi everyone!
Thanks for your responses. Michka - I am very grateful to
hear that u had similar s/e's. I was thinking it must be working
to feel this bad, since it's targeted.
I am SO glad to hear this is really working for you. Yesterday
I could get out of bed. Now it feels like bombs went off in
my abdomen area, and that there are holes in some places -
like my liver that my body is working OT to repair. My stomach
area is still swollen and sore. I'm sure thIs means it is
working.
Michka - I saw high bp was a side effect in 10% of folks. I
got bad high bp after being on Avastin for 18 months. I am
now using an essential oil blend to help with my bp - it's working. Plz
PM me if u want to learn more. France is a Mecca for using
essential oils medicinally.
Thanks everyone -
Kim
