Before I quit all pharmaceuticals, I was on Depakote (divalproex) for migraines. Nasty little pill w/ an extreme amount of side effects.
I was supposed to get my levels of bad sodium & salt build up checked through a blood test every month bc of it. Did that for years till I just decided the side effects were not worth it. https://www.drugs.com/tips/depakote-patient-tips
I don't get bad effects from that
Glad to hear it. It is rare that pills do not lead to many other things that need to be cured/fixed as well. When I first started having nerve issues, I went from having 2 pills a day to 17 different prescriptions in the span of 3 months.
I would much rather deal with the pain now then have to take the pills.
