But I hope it works well for you-good luck
So did they think, then, that the Beta had caused the drop in white cells?

My doc took me off the Beta a couple of weeks ago, possibly temporarily. But I was feeling VERY light headed, like I could pass out.... even just sitting part of the time. And walking was so hard, I was feeling so weak like I would just faint. This started happening not long after I got to the full dose. Time will tell, I guess. I still am feeling faint, but perhaps not as often.

Do you, or does anyone know, can ms actually cause you to feel so lightheaded you can pass out? I seem to have the burning sensation along with the light headedness. But as I stated in another thread, I am also having gallbladder issues. So I don't know what is what!


THanks for your response!
