Hello on this nice day down here. I know quite a few folks on that drug. Maybe 10 on Neuro talk that get great benefits from it. Good pain reduction etc. Their doses are considerable higher than what you are starting with. They worked up to the dose they are on.
In my case, I have been seriously depressed. I took it for one week, and just about became suicidal on the drug. My doctor did tell me he thought it was from the medicine. I got off the drug quickly and those symptoms went away. I know one other person who reacted like that. I think going slow is your best option, then you can really tell if there is some kind of negative reaction. So far so good...hopefully you can have an up in the dose soon. I hope you get great benefit from it like most people do. I wish you all the best. Keep in touch, and keep your journal. ginnie
