The burning pain in scalp was unbearable and my whole body felt like it was on fire. I could not even turn in the bed because the friction of the sheets made it worse.

    I only took SIMCOR for one month. My insurance wouldn't cover it. During that one month, I was always itching and was slowly loosing control of my bowels. I am really glad my insurance refused to cover it.

    I was only able to take this medication for a few days. At first it caused stomach pain and on the last day I had an allergic reaction. I was red, burning and itching from head to toe and went to the emergency room for the standard allergic reaction treatment.
