Saw my new LLMD today. Bad news: the name barely talks. Awkward socially big time. Good news: he tested for more Cos, he was very unhappy with my treatment to date. said i'd been on same drugs for way too long with no progress. and he treats all cos at same time. Soooo, overall i guess i am happy. if he isn't chatty, so what, right? I'm not making friends. at this point i feel i need to try something new so i'm gonna make the change.

he prescribed tinidmax. anyone have anything about this drug they can share? 750 a day. 250 3x a day. he said get ready i will herx. i'm scared!!! at least i can give up the mepron. ick.

Mine is quiet too, but its because he's thinking. He's more chatty when he's not in the actual appointment and concentrating. I do the same, so we get along fine.

I also took tindamax for a while. I did herx, but it was manageable. Good luck with it, I hope its a good one for you!

I did tindamax but only for a week because I was having an allergic reaction to a different med that I was on. It was okay for me. I didn't herx anywhere nearly as severe as some of the other meds I've been on.

Good luck!

The bottle has been filled. Instead of saying "take as directed", it says "take as tolerated" .... Oh boy
