Your application is obviously different, but awhile back they did a randomized study on Viamin E vs placebo in smokers to see if this antioxidant prevented lung cancer. Surprise! The Vitamin E group had more lung cancer, not less.
ps the SELECT study showed vitamin E increased risk of prostrate cancer. You may want to ask your oncologist if they still want you to take it.

Venlafaxine is not a bad drug, but it’s VERY unforgiving of skipped doses, as I am sure you learned.

They never show halftime entertainment in the pros, except for the Super Bowl, and even then not the band.
No respect for bands. Sad.

Indeed.
I think for some of the SEC games they show the halftimes on SECN+.

Vain, But Lacking Talent
Got a ride in today. According to Strava, this is the first time I rode over 100 miles in a week (Ok, so like 19 were zwift) since August of 2016. Holy cow. Time and inactivity really sneaks up on you. Not that I plan on every week being a 100miler, but it was nice.

Yes. Brain tremors, upset stomach, etc. I knew by 11 AM if I missed a dose. It would start with a headache and upset stomach followed a couple hours later by brain “shakes.”

The birds game has ended sadly for the iggles.

I was given venlafaxine in 2009 not as an antidepressant but to counteract severe hot flashes. I was only supposed to be on it for 6 months but I couldn’t complete the tapering off process. I tried 3 or 4 times and couldn’t do it.
Finally, when I was in ICU on a ventilator in 2016, the hospital wasn’t giving it to me and I was on a fentanyl patch. When I left the hospital a couple weeks later with no withdrawal symptoms from the venlafaxine, that was the end of it. Of course, my family doctor worried about the 4 weeks of fentanyl but I had no problems weaning off of it and I was thrilled to be over the venlafaxine.
My oncologist says she won’t put me on it again, anyway.
