I have only seen where Meridia has caused heart problems and seizures, and I pray for all these people to get well soon! My heart goes out to each and everyone of you and your families. But for me, I took Meridia for a few months and lost over 50 lbs. At first, it looked good, but my stomach kept hurting bad afterwards constantly, and I had to use the bathroom often :oops: , missed alot of work, got too thin, and went to Dr., diagnosed with colitis & IBS, had to go to a specialist for the colon, etc... anyway, it's something I've never had a problem with before taking Meridia, I looked so bad, and drained. I still have the problem, going on 2 years now, but take certain medicines to help, and I've always thought that the diet I was on, Meridia, did this. Has anyone ever experienced the same from this diet?

Gee, I never heard that before. I think there are continuing studies on the bad effects of this diet drug. I suspect sometime the FDA will wake up and pull this thing off the market too. Sorry to hear of your problems, it's a shame that we are prescribed stuff that makes us sick in the longrun and they keep it out there to get even more people sick.
