Hi Lisa,
I just did a quick Google search and there are some concerns out there. But, I think you've witnessed three scary events after its use! I think that'd be enough for me to chuck it and start something more natural. "Fibrocartilaginous embolism???" In what universe is that considered an okay condition?
Here's my thoughts, w/o a deep investigation:
- You've given a drug to purportedly help your IG's joints
- Joints are made of cartilage. And fibrous tissue, like tendons and ligaments.
- After each of three doses, she gets paralyzed, and the diagnosis is termed "issues of excess cartilage and (fibro) connective tissue blocking her blood vessels!
Sure sounds like a connection to me! I'd dump that drug and run for something natural. Raw bones with lots of cartilage on the joints, at the very least.
