Sounds like you are developing an allergic reaction.  If you keep taking it, even at a low dose, you risk a more serious reaction, like anaphalaxis.  See your doc right away.

they r right, in my actual trained experience, lower the dose, spread it out some......oatmeal baths, try to relax, candles, bath, glass of wine , beer, 'eva.......if continues, contact doc asap....may be a short term reaction also, as u build tolerance. keep in touch, peace,love, 'core

Seems like a high dose for only having been on it for two weeks.  Maybe try some benadryl?

... my untrained "hunch" says to lower the dosage(maybe by 1/3 or 1/2?) and soak in an oatmeal bath or milk bath of some sort. Light some candles and maybe a glass of wine or tea? ... relax...
