I thought I'd post this here, as was wondering if anyone else on here has ever taken this drug and experienced anything like this while on it. I've been taking this for 9 days now (at 10 mg strength). Though for the first week I didn't notice anything out the ordinary, since increasing my tablets from one a day to two a day yesterday (it said on my instructions that's what you have to do after the first week) I experienced alot of pretty severe chest pains this morning. Came on very suddenly, and for about 3 hours or so seemed to keep occurring every few minutes or so. Gradually, by early afternoon, they started occurring further apart and decreased in intensity but I was still worried so went to my local doctors surgery late this afternoon and talked to the locum who was there. However she wasn't able to tell me anything conclusive, just suggested I stop taking the drug for a week to see if it made any difference or not - and then after that make an appointment with my usual doctor and take it up with him. As a result I don't know what to think at this point, though I guess I don't have much of a choice other than to follow her advice.
Anyways, would be very grateful for any responses anyone might be able to post in here. Many thanks for reading.
