here is what s happening right now: I took 2 capsules about 3pmn Friday. About 315p I realized one did go down, so I drank water, lots of water. Later that evening, it still hadn t gone down, and when I drank I would get a light uneasiness (kind of like the brain freeze). I finally went to sleep and woke up this morning with the capsule seeming to be right at the base of my throat (rather than at the base of my bra line last night). I also had a cough (which I didn t have yesterday). Today I ve gone through a bout of sweats and lightheadedness (for about a half hour), then tonight the pain is back at my bra line level. My left hand and left bottom foot are itchy (like when you have hives - but I don t have hives). I ve eaten soup (which is not a new soup), drank lots of water (only), and had taken my meds (thyroxine, atenolol, 2 baby aspirins, Ramipril and Lipitor - no other). I had a HA in 1999, have a stent, and gall bladder removed more than 20yrs ago; right lobe of thyroid removed in 1968.
