Hey I read your post completely. I want to suggest you to check Ayurvedic remedies to cure this issue. Believe me, there's a lot of remedies that have no side effects and you will be recovered more easily. I am telling you all this because allopathic medicines tend to harm us. Not now but on later stages of our life.
