Sara...You are having side effects from your medication depending how serious the dizziness is and the lack of appetie you might want to call your Doc just to be sure. I will type up all the info I found for you.

I noticed as you will the questions you were asking about are answered in this info they are both side effects but only you can decide if they are serious or bothersome enough for you to call your Doctor. Once again thank you for the post I like to help others where I can even if it is just listening to a relationship problem...we all need friends and someone to offer advice and I try to be that to others. You take care of yourself and keep me posted on that you find out if you call your Doctor. Chat again soon.
Your friend
