Hi denizens, I was a constant user of aspirin including St.Joseph's aspirin for children from an early age. I used to think it was harmless, merely a minor pain killer. In the 1970s it destroyed my life. I didn't realize it at the time as I had a viral infection according to PCP of the moment. I was sent home with instructions to drink lots of water and to take aspirin. I overdid the aspirin because the fever messed up my head. I over did the aspirin but did not realize anything was wrong until a bit later another few weeks or so when my shins broke out in red lumps, which is English for Erythema Nodosum. Very painful as though someone had without restraint had used a ball peen hammer on my shins. I learned EN about by visiting San Francisco General and had to go repeatedly before they loosened their tight asses and prescribed a cortisone by mouth for my red lumps and learned that I was sensitive to all the drugs in the same chemical group as aspirin which is all the Salicylate drugs. Salicylates also occur in fruits and vegetables. Ok so then I got allergic to wheat, animal dairy products but specifically those with animal casein. Originally this was just cows milk but after a few years I became allergic to goat milk and sheep milk cheese. Then when I was 46 I got very ill maybe from exertion but after that whenever I exerted myself I ran the risk of being terribly ill. Worse exercise which had been my friend since young adulthood became poisonous to my body. Now this used to be called Chronic Fatigue Syndrome but I prefer Systemic Exertional Intolerance Disease. It happens after an illness which seems to resolve but recurs when exercise is attempted. At times I thought it was over and would go out as I was used to doing for the first part of my life and make myself sick all over again. And it causes brain fog which is why I did not figure out that exercise was making me ill. Legal over the counter drugs can destroy your life so be careful. There is no cure for this post-viral problem. I had to give up many things like motorcycling and driving. I had to give up the motorbikes because I was getting cramps in my throttle hand and a bit later gave up driving because I could no longer stay awake enough to drive. I have lived in the same studio apartment now for over 50 years and it is crammed full with stuff of great interest to me at one time which is now just somewhat valuable clutter. I have told my tale, heed it and tell it to people who think that OTC drugs are safe. Remember that alcohol is legal and can be simply deadly or destroy your health just like tobacco. bliss-the hobbler - 87 YOA -- b l i s s dash s f 4 e v e r at d s l e x t r e m e dot c o m
