Guest guest Posted March 25, 2001 Report Share Posted March 25, 2001 Hi a, I wanted to say about the article you sent in on vioxx and blood pressure. I can certainly attest to that situation. I remember trying to convince my doctors that my blood pressure being so high was from the vioxx. At the time the pharmacist had told me the information I had gotten from this group was six months ahead of what he gets. I would not recommend anyone take vioxx. Sorry it took me awhile to answer this. This attack has been a little harder to come back from. How are you and doing? Have a nice Sunday, they are talking snow for tomorrow. It is time for spring. me Mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 25, 2001 Report Share Posted March 25, 2001 Me Mom , Vioxx does have problems with some people, but I've been on it for 2 months, and my pressure hasn't changed. I got my own cuff to make sure. It's another case that all these meds are so different for all of us and we have to know what to look for. I'm surprised that the pharmacists aren't getting the information for so long. I would think they would get it FIRST! That is scary! I'm glad you're feeling a little better and back to school, although I wish you weren't having problems eating. Today is sunny here, but tonight won't be so nice. We will probably just get more rain here. I hope you don't get to much snow. and I are doing great, thanks for asking. He took me out to the new Lowe's that opened here to pick out paint and carpet for our living room. I haven't been out for a while, so it was nice. I hope you are having a nice Sunday too! a ----- Original Message ----- From: Ruf-Caimi Sent: Sunday, March 25, 2001 8:27 AM Subject: [ ] vioxx Hi a, I wanted to say about the article you sent in on vioxx and blood pressure.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2001 Report Share Posted March 25, 2001 Wow! Really? Your pharmacist is six months behind? They need someone like us in pharmacies to just do computer research and keep up to date. ~Rainy Sue ----- Original Message ----- From: " Ruf-Caimi " <ruf-caimi@...> < > Sent: Sunday, March 25, 2001 5:27 AM Subject: [ ] vioxx > > Hi a, > I wanted to say about the article you sent in on vioxx and blood pressure. > I can certainly attest to that situation.

I have been incredibly forgetful as of late, and it is highly unusual for me.... Yes. I don't notice it anymore, but when I started the med I was aware of its effect on my thinking. Most notably was the time I stopped to fill the car with gas, then had to think hard about where I was going next. (I was packed up for a special retreat, not just running errands or doing something else that was " forgettable " .) Sierra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
