I got a seven-day course of Tamiflu, one capsule per day, because my

daughter has the flu and I really don't need it. I was told there

are very few side effects, and that they are much less likely to

cause problems than antibiotics. Has anyone taken it - anyone

problems with it?

HI RH,

I took Tamiflu in December when I actually had the flu to try to lessen the

effects of it. I didn't have any side effects of it nor did my parents who

also took it. One of my friends took it and did have some dizziness with it,

but that was about it. It seems like a pretty safe med overall.

Hi ,

is at home and is doing so-so. She can probably update more if she

is checking her e-mails, but she is having trouble with the surgeon who did her

partial colectomy. She needs to have another surgery done but he's not

returning phone calls and can't schedule an appt. or the surgery til early

March.

She's feeling so sick that she's not sure if she can wait that long so she's

trying to get an appt. with a doctor at Cinci Children's for a second

opinion, but he can't see her til mid March. She's not sure what she's going to

do

at this point....

Please give my love if you talk with her.

Is she going to have to have the more complex surgery? Is this one not

working the way they had hoped?

Hi Laurie,

I will pass along your good wishes to . The surgery didn't work well

for her at all. She is back in the same place she was before the surgery and

really isn't feeling well. She wants to get the rest of her colon removed at

this point, but can't get in touch with the surgeon to let him know her

concerns. She does have an appt. with him for early March, but is afraid, with

her

declining health that that may be too far away. I think she's trying again

to get in touch with the surgeon today. I'll let you know if I hear anymore.
