Guest guest Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Mark, Welcome to Tx! Just take it as easy as possible the first few days after each shot. Try not to worry about what the Riba is causing, theyre both tough Meds but " together " they do much better than alone. Keep your doses up all thru Tx and you increase your chances for success. And last but not least: Drink Tons O Water. Check out my Profile whenever you need a little extra encouragement. We'll all be here to help you make it!! HERES TO YOUR SUCCESS ON TX!

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Mark, Your first shot sounds like mine. Cept I didn't have a warm hound to snuggle up to, had to make do with my hubbie. *smile* Yes, I would get a slight reaction with the pills, I found that if I ate something with my co-pegasy that I felt much better. Just something little a piece of toast with jelly or something similar. Good luck hon and keep us updated.
