Hi Lol, well sometimes I forget to take them!! then when I remember i feel sick sometimes and the only thing I can put it down to is these tabs as i've monitored it. docs say got to take them though. told me it'll effect my eyesight so go for yearly tests - hmm, he got that right my sight is awful now. Heather - I was told by medics that you should only be on them for 5 years no longer? i'll need to check that out then. keep well x

I think I remember them kicking in after about 3 months. May have been a bit longer, but it was so long ago now that I can't really remember! They started to fail at just under the 5 year mark, last November. But you need to remember that everyone is different. Some people take longer to feel relief, some not so long.
