I'm afraid it's impossible to guess what she might say as none of us are medics and don't know your medical history. However, there are lots of options open to her, and much of medication anyway is on the 'try it and see' basis. Sometimes these symptoms settle down altogether, so she may want you keep going for a bit longer. Who knows?

Hi , I'm like you when taking Frostsir . It works well but the side affects are dreadful !

I work as a health care profession and I need to canulate patients frequently which is laughable. I get such bad shakes, If someone approached me in the same state I would run 😳 .

I now get up earlier and take a half dose which has helped but not resolved the problem. My Gp is fine with this my asthma is well controlled.... at last .

I will be interested to see if someone can offer a solution.

All the best .

Regards Maryeileen
