I talked to the pharmacist and she said that she'd had a couple of patients complain about the same side effect...

Choices were 1) stop the medications until I can talk to my doc on Monday 2) continue it and hope that I don't have a recurrence tonight 3) swap out a couple of the 50mg capsules for some 25mg capsules and take a lower dose tonight and see what happens.

Door #3 is what I chose for tonight.

Monday I will call my doc because she also said I need to report to her about the double vision. Blurry vision is one thing, but double vision should be reported. Maybe the lower dose will not be so bad...keeping my fingers crossed b/c it is helping with the pain.

I hate being such a med wuss....dang it!
