I asked the pharmacist about it and she said Yes it's true. It does. I was taking an azole-type drug for my Valley Fever which I HAD to take and couldn't get along without it. So I told my doctor this. And she said... "Oh wow" (huh?) and I said.... I'm not taking the Prilosec and I'm going to eat less and earlier in the day and that's that. Always Read The Label. Ask your pharmacist questions. Sometimes they know more about the drug than the doctor does. Thanks for sharing that. It's a good admonition.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-612862199192033310.post-33473181283338002152018-10-14T08:06:21.853-07:002018-10-14T08:06:21.853-07:00Dear Jaylyn,

I too developed a heart flutter (different from Bigeminy) as I was prescribed too much thyroid medicine. I had to have my heart shocked and now am on blood thinners. I'm much older than you are and way less active but it is very scary to deal with nonetheless I didn't feel the heart flutter which is the weird part and I too felt that I was totally healthy! Perhaps the knitting was a tongue in cheek joke but it has literally saved my sanity on many a day. You might want to read Kate Davies new book, Handywoman, to read about her journey after a stroke at age 36. <br /><br />I always tell people that we are something like an old car that needs to be worked on now and again to keep running smoothly. Your blog is such an inspiration of a life well lived. Sending good healthy thoughts to you and peace. lilysgranniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881178304674508910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-612862199192033310.post-12126227336947265272018-10-10T15:23:12.947-07:002018-10-10T15:23:12.947-07:00I know where you are coming from when you are talk...I know where you are coming from when you are talking about your health issues. I had something happen to me on September 18 . I had been very busy trying to find out why I was gaining weight & having extreme diahrrea for 3 weeks. I had a ultra sound done but it only shower that I have extreme gas buildup in my stomach. I was on my way back from my doctor when I started having chest pains. the next thing I know they are unloading me at the hospital. I had wrecked my truck and took out 100 feet of guardrail & then rolled my truck down an embankment that required 2 wreckers to get it out. I was unhurt . simply by the GRACE OF GOD . they done every kind of test but only found out that I have acute pancreatitis . they said I had a seizure .I had been having them since 2015 . several days later I was at my brothers house & I heard a voice say CHECK THE SIDE EFFECTS OF YOUR MEDICINE . I did . the diabetes medicine I was on causes seizures the blood pressure medicine causes pancreatitis the other 2 meds I was on causes excess weight gain & diahrrea. check the side effects of your medicines to see if that could be part of your problems.GOOD LUCK<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-612862199192033310.post-83162836298074082982018-10-10T15:14:51.408-07:002018-10-10T15:14:51.408-07:00Oh dear, I’m sorry to hear and I understand from p...Oh dear, I’m sorry to hear and I understand from personal experience how hard and upsetting heart things can be.
