Having some really unwanted side effects since increasing to 600mg. The worst being terrible water retention and feeling really swollen. I've got cankles now! Plus my muscle and joint pain has increased and I get some quite serious pain just from short walks, although some of this is because I don't really get any exercise. I've gained a significant amount of weight and my stomach is always distended, particularly after eating. I'm being careful (most of the time apart from weekends when I get my chocolate fix) about what I eat having a big salad for my main meal. Does anyone else have any of these side effects and if so, do you have any tips on how to counteract them!
