Hi everyone,

How are you doing today?

We take medication to relieve some of the worst disease symptoms. But that doesn't mean that the side effects are make life that much more pleasant.

What are some of the worst treatment side effects your have experienced? What was it caused by? Did you find a solution?

Let this be a safe place where you can vent about your medication and awful side effects- let it out!

Take care,

Lizzi from the Carenity team
