I am earnestly praying for you concerning the pill you are discontinuing....but I wouldn't want to continue taking something that was causing me pain either. You and I and a few others on PP have been "going through it".....I have been so sick the last couple of months....and now I'm having pains in the lower stomach...so I know I can expect more horrid tests to be done....it never ends, it seems. Let us all pray for each other daily...as prayer and God are our only hope. Jesus Huggs and lots of love to all...and hang in there, sweet Sandy.
