OT: High Dose VItamin C and Bleeding

[Guest guest]

I have been suffereing with this sore throat all week. I started

taking my daughter's Vitamin C (Carlson's) because it really feels good

on the throat. I figured I should take some Vitamin C meant for me and

that the more vitamin c in my system, the better so I took 3000mg of

Ester-c, I did this for 2 days. I started bleeding towards the end of

the 2nd day. It is currently the 4th or 5th day and it looks like it

is finally stopping but the cramps are laying me low!!!

I have never heard of Vitamin C doing this; I was told once that I

could take up to 5000mgs a day by a prior doctor? I googled this and

found that this is how some women have abortions.

I know this is wayyyyyyy OT but if any of you have any information on

this, I would greatly appreciate it.
