Hi all,
I had the scariest thing happen to me the other day.  I had my gallbladder
out a couple of weeks ago and the doc prescribed an anti-nausea med called
Reglan in case of nausea.  I don't know they didn't give me Phenergan since
I'm used to that, but they wanted me to try this.  Anyway I took 1 in the
morning and 1 in the afternoon.  When I was driving to pick up my husband
from work I noticed I couldn't stop from looking up in the sky, and my neck
wouldn't stop doing that either.  Thankfully I made it to his work before it
got MUCH worse.  I couldn't keep my head from being upwards and my eyes from
doing the same, it was awful and scary at the same time, and VERY hard to
explain exactly what happened.  I thought I was having a seizure.  My
husband quickly took me to the ER and told them about the Reglan and they
knew exactly what happened, gave me Benadryl in an IV and 1 minute later, it
stopped.  I was told it was common and to take a couple Benadryl (50mg)
every few hours for the next day until the drug completely left my system
since it's slow release.  The ER doc told me that unfortunately that is a
very common side effect.  If that's the case, why in the HELL is this drug
allowed to be on the market?!
I was so scared to drive the next couple of days, that's how bad of an
effect it had on me, and I will never forget it!  Has anyone else had this
reaction to it?
