Energy shot

Today I decided to try a 5 hour energy like product (tired). I used to have these energy shots pre-sleeve. Not a good idea. Soon after it went down I was getting stabbing pains in my left side ( where my stomach is?). This lasted for about 5 minutes. I also got a big niacin flush, more powerful then anything that happened pre-sleeve. I got pretty wired for several hours. There was not anything unusual about the energy shot, just the usual 16k % b12. Just letting others know it was not a good experience and I won't be doing that again...

I am glad it works for you. Not so much for me and not sure why. Perhaps an expert can chime in.
