I just did call them. I thought after a day or two it wouldn't happen. But, only 1/2 hour after taking the pill this morning, I feel dizzy when I stand up and not really tired...just sleepy. It makes me nervous when I drive my truck or car. But no where as nervous as when I ride my bike. Not sure if I ever mentioned this but my bike went from having a 80 cubic inch motor to 110 cubic inches a couple of years ago. I can easily hit 130 mph going "up" the steepest hill around. That's really a big change since my bike is an 800 pound Road King Classic. At about 100 mph last night, I felt dizzy and found myself on the wrong side of the road. Since I live in a small town and know every cop on the force, I have no fears of getting a ticket. Hell, I even wear an old timey leather helmet and the cops just laugh at it
I have often told my wife to never put me in a position of choosing between her or my bike. I'm not really sure if I am ready to say the same about the choice of dieing and my bike.
Anyway, I digress. Since I am seeing my own doctor Friday morning, they told me to just stick to the meds until then.
