ibromyalgia
"I found tremendous relief during the past six months with Mucinex for fibromyalgia, however I was wondering if any other person thought that the Mucinex also caused sensitivity to sugar.  I also noticed that when I took the 1200mg of 12 hour timed release Mucinex I felt energetic, however my joints were extremely painful.  My shoulders and left knee were on fire, and my left leg was swollen.  I reduced the dosage to 600mg timed release.  Now I feel okay, able to function without the extreme pain and swelling, the sensitivity to sugar is still there though.  Also, I am premenopausal and was wondering if anyone thought that taking Mucinex made the symptoms worse.  Overall Mucinex works for me."
