Hi Chris
You'll be pleased to know that the side effects wore off after a couple of weeks. I started on 1000 in two 500 doses. I cut it down to 500 when my tummy was really bad. I ate alot of rich tea biscuits!!!! Have you tried ginger? That helps as well apparently!!!
My weight is staying steady at the mo' I'm hoping this is because of my sudden burst of excerise is turning ym fat into muscle!!!!
Good luck
