| Description of the problem | Osteoporosis and i read that this drug brings on or makes worse any osteoporosis condition mine is extremely sever and mine is sever. I have since gone to a neurologist and he put me on verapamil 80 mgs 2 x a day. I fractured my right knee in 15 places-i am in constant pain-i have to pay out money to get anywhere i need to go-groceries,bank all the continuing visits to my primary doctor, my orthopedic surgeon(because unless i do not replace my knee-i will be in this horrific-& pain that is my orthos opinion. I am all for it just to lessen the pain- i do not want to have take pills when it could be gone after my accidents- i receive in the mail yet another recall that specifically says my vin number and says that besides something that gives electrical to the air bags- may cause air bags-not to deploy-i have no car,it was totaled, the police suspended my license and because of this i have to go through a bunch of stuff in order to get my license back. I have called toyota a lot of times-they do not care=i was what-i have no familyi have had 4 accidents-never had that many, i had a toyota ceclica for 20 years and never had 1 recall and did have 1 accident.. And that is 20years prior to this one-that car was a super lemon,but no one gives a damn what i am going through and no one cares-the people i have talked to down there are rude and disrespectful to mt. Hopefully i can find a lawyer which will do pro-bono. Thanks for the 15 fractures. The loss of my license,having to -thanks for the misery you have brought me and the rude and crappy behavior of your collegues. I have nothing left-no license,no car-have to pay someone to the doctors,food,had to my championship yorkie up because i could not care for her=u try that with 15 fractures in ur knee-not to mention what the neurologist about my hands. Ur customer service sucks-they are rude & disrespectful. |
