"I've had Synvisc One injections at least three times and each time they last anywhere from 6 to 8 months. The relief is awesome.

"I was diagnosed with major depression 6 years ago when I was 18 years old. I was started on 100mg of Zoloft. You hear the commercials about side effects of SSRIs about how they can "increase suicidal thoughts in children and young adults". Well Zoloft did that to me and made my depression even worse until I ...

"This med works well for me in about 30 mins. My comment involves the packaging. When you are struggling with a bad headache it is extremely stressful trying to open the plastic and foil the pill is sealed in. Don't always have scissors at handy. Any one else find this annoying ?
