Re: [VFB] Jimmy D update
I started our with 2 Mg each day then it went up to 4 mg twice a day and now it is settled to 5 mg twice a day. I have been taking it for over a year. Was told I would be on it for a long time. Since I have been on it I have not had another TIA. I still have blood work each month to monitor it. I still can't wade and will not be able to any more. My knees are gone and I am too old to get them done over. Three times on the right knee is more than I want to do again.
