I have had Aspartame seizures off and on since year 2001. I first experienced the seizures when I bought a box of Slim fast bars to eat at work. I am a janitor and I work alone. I felt fine before I ate the Slim fast bars, but then all of my left side including my face and tongue went numb and tingling. I thought I had a stroke until I spoke with one of the ladies who works at the building I clean, and she gave me an article on Aspartame. I also made another discovery with my Estrogen pill “PREMARIN” it also has Aspartame in the dye. I was getting petite mals in the stomach until I quit taking it. I didn’t my doctor know any of this until I spoke to a lawyer. When I didn’t receive an answer back from xxxxxxx xxxxxxx I went to see a lawyer in [Location] where I live, and he said, “I have to let my doctor know about this and be tested.” My doctor knew nothing about Aspartame. He didn’t know Aspartame causes seizures and brain tumors. Thoughts were running through my head,
“OH G-R-E-A-T here I go educating another doctor!”
I have an appointment set up with a Neurosurgeon for September 22, 2005, and all the research I have done on Aspartame I made sure I dropped copies of information off at Dr. Bakker’s office ahead of time. On August 10th 2005 I went to see a dietitian, and she knew “NOTHING” about Aspartame. I took a binder of information in with me, and the Dietitian replied, “It’s better for you to rely on the computer for your information than to talk to me because I know nothing about Aspartame. I sharply replied, “So it’s better for me to go All Natural than to take my chances on the food industry? The Dietitian said, “All her clients respond with the same attitude as mine when they leave her office also.” I buy only ORGANIC FOOD, and I do not eat in restaurants anymore. Since I have gone all natural I have been seizure-free. I would like to file a class action lawsuit against the Aspartame Company. My Family Doctor said if I go through with this Aspartame test and have a seizure I could lose my driver’s license, and then there goes my livelihood because I operate my own Janitorial Company myself. I need all the advice you can give me including on How to Deal with the Doctors Here In [Location] Concerning Aspartame. Having to deal with Aspartame Poison has limited me to the “Do’s and Don’ts.” Could you please help me with the class action lawsuit or give me some guidance on how to go about taking action against Aspartame.
