Does Lipidil Ez Causes Stomach Cramps,chills,diarrhea And Fatigue?
My wife has just been put on LIPIDIL EZ a few days ago to lower her colesterol because of 1 heart blockage 50% and another 100% a couple months ago... they cannot put in the stint when they tried. We have just left vancouver and are now a days drive away from her doctor and she has severe stomach cramps, chills, diarea,weakness and too many things to list ..... she spnt all last night up sick and slept all day like she has the flu. She just took another pill 145 mg (one a day). I just looked up the side effects and the list reads like a book... the nearest emergency doctor is 2 hrs away. should I been concerned or just stop her from taking any more of these tablets?
