You mates 'down under' must have more flexible docs.
Lucky blokes!

Yeah Bob, it probably would make a difference, i know it did for me, at that time i was on Tr - 200 SL just wasn't enough, but after the extra 100 mg tab it really helped it get down to a comfortable level.
I don't know if all doc's here would perscribe the extra, but i convinced my GP that 200 mg was not enough and i wasn't prepared to take any others like Neurotin, Oxycontin etc, so i suppose it left him in a position that he had know else to turn, my neuro thought it was ok as well to take that amount , so i guess we are lucky or just may be just lucky enough to have 2 doctors that were not scared to perscribe higher than normal recommended doses.
May take some convincing to your doc's that you need the extra to make your pain bearable, at least, rules are made to be broken
good luck,
Brian
