| 3 | skin rush &spring allergys | excessive sweating-hot flashes or chills,my scalp was burning ,hair loss,weight gain, rapid heart rate ,confusion & fog, headaches, sleeplessness & excessive night sweats. Mood swings , exhaustion , severe anger or depression, inability to concentrate for long periods. Also had blurry vision. | I was trying to figure out what changed in my life when I started having terrible hair loss and sweats .Did not make the connection at all until I goggled Zyrtec and was shocked to found out about the weight gain issue & specially about hair loss (could not touch my hair without getting every time 5-10 of them in my hand –the view was making me miserable) my scalp was burning and sweating most of the time .now I realized that it all started after I started taking Zyrtec. Did not take it for 2 days and no more sweats today!!!!!!!!!Burning scalp was driving me crazy…. Thank goodness now i traced it to this med so I agree with the others-I'd rather have a stuffy nose than feel like this anymore. | F | 44 | 70 days 1X D | 5/25/2010 | |
