I’m in this picture. My main medication seems to have pretty mundane effects, and there’s a chance that it will completely shut down my liver. However my quality and duration of life have gone way way up and I have no regrets.

I can't watch TV for four minutes without thinking I have five serious diseases.
Like: "Do you ever wake up tired in the mornings?"
Oh my god, I have this! Write this down. Whatever it is, I have it!
Half the time I don't even know what the commercial is.
There's people running in fields or flying kites or swimming in the ocean.
Like: "That is the greatest disease ever. How do you get that?
That disease comes with a hot chick and a puppy!
How great it is, not to live in the US !

"Ask your doctor for Generisolene! Only Generisolene cures what ails you" really? I'm going to go piss off my GP because I saw an advert? I think my doctor knows what medications I need better than my fucking TV

Claridryl may not be right for everyone. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist. Some patients experience side effects, including dry mouth, dizziness, double vision, reflexive memory, aggression, and fatigue. Do not use if you suffer from high blood pressue or neurological dysfunction. Call your doctor if you experience an inability to concentrate, stiff muscles, sores, or trouble walking. Do not take Claridryl before bed or immediately upon waking up. Insomnia has been reported with Claridryl and drugs like it. In some cases, the insomnia can become permanent and lead to stroke or death. Other risks include headaches, seizures, trouble swallowing, impared motor skills, extreme paranoia, loss of time, muscle twitches and spasms…
