I am still on 9 pills a day and use a walker to move around now. I can't live alone and do nothing for myself. I am only 37yrs old. I was 33 when I got sick.

After taking this medication for six weeks, I developed a severe itchy rash around ankles and wrists. The rash spead over body, then I developed swelling and pain in my limbs and had difficulty breathing.......all this and the doctor still kept telling me he didn't believe it was a reaction to INH. He kept telling me I had scarlet fever! When I had to have rings cut off due to swelling we finally checked with a local pharmacy. He called back 20 mins later and told me to stop taking this medication and he also phoned my doctor and told him to take me off the meds. I should have gone to the hospital for detox!

Developed tiredness, abdominal pain, joint pain, and weakness within 2 weeks of taking this drug. Don't know if this will affect my Dermatomyositis that's in remission.
