Not all people react to medication and their side effects the same way. I had a lump in my stomach and they gave me these fediddlein horse pills loaded with aluinium, the side effect to this was kidney failure. Well, 4 years ago i had a kidney removed. I now have one. Talk about a decision, Take the pills to reduce the lump in my stomach and have a good chance for kidney failure, enhanced by the fact i have only 1 kidney.
All this plus i was in Mexico. I stopped the meds while in Mexico for the simple reason, theres no way in hell i want to end up in a Mexican hospital if i have a kidney failure.
So, you need to decide how bad your your situation is, also see if there is an alternitive medication they can give you so the side effects may be different, who knows, your dick might get bigger....
Consult before taking yourself off med, unless you deem it is life threatening. Then take yourself off and see the Doctor again.
Dog out.....
