                Thanks Julie. I've been taking for five days now and the rash (looks like a suburn) has started on one hand and on my face. My scalp hurts which is really weird. It's like wearing a pony tail to tight all the time. the chills happened twice. It was after the evening dose. I took the meds before I ate dinner vice after eating so my guess is that's what caused it.
