No one
wants to be awoken at 2am by a phone call saying their sister is at the
hospital. That is what happened to me,
that one phone call changed my life. I
rushed to the hospital in a panic, the doctors told me she was in a coma and
they didn’t know if she would come out.
So why did this happen, the doctors figure her new prescription
interacted badly with her other prescriptions. They couldn’t say if it was her
mistake or her doctors. She was in a
coma for three weeks before she finally woke up. For a long time after, she wasn’t the
same. She was physically and mentally
fine, but little things are different.
She got angry easier, slept more, ate less.
Even if you are not a natural herb user,
and feel more comfortable with pharmaceutical medicines, there
are a few steps you can take to protect yourself. Know what you are
taking, know the side effects of each medication, and the potential
interactions between your medications. Ask your doctor questions about
your medication, research your medication on the internet, or even ask your
pharmacist. With all the information on the internet, there is no reason
any one can not find information about their prescriptions. So, please,
get knowledgeable, do your research, ask questions. This is your first
defense against any harm coming to you like what happened
to my sister.
