Hi Rob - yes - my voice has gotten raspy, like it did when I was taking IV steroids, some sleeplessness, some flushing
So far, I'd say the benefits outweigh the side effects I'm ready to attempt climbing stairs BERNARD BUTCHER Honeywell Engineering 516-577-5868 ________________________________ From: Robert Pall [mailto:rp...@neillsupply.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 05, 2010 8:11 AM To: Butcher, Bernie (S&FS); T Kanon; tmic-list@eskimo.com Subject: RE: [TMIC] meds Bernie: Have you noticed any side effects?

I saw improvement after 2 days (unless it's just wishful) I can walk faster (with walker, of course), and can lift my good leg higher. my neuro says it will take 2 weeks to kick in fully.

Has anyone taken it or heard of it? Also has anyone taken altitude medication for trips to very high places? How did you do on them? Thanks again as always Tobe Brooklyn NY
