I understand. This is important.

It is currently written for 2.5 mgs a day -- 75 pills a month.
Any script that is written for more than 2.5 mgs a day should get you more pills or an earlier refill, even in the 1mg strength which you prefer. A fresh script for 2.5mg daily or a lesser amount will not help.

Do you need another script right now -- you got the 2mg and 0.5 mg pills from 4min pdoc, right? I mean, so, total, you do have extra if you need it, or am I missing something?

Quote:
Maybe I should have some wine and go to bed (-- I use wine when I have missed too many windows to sleep)
Do what helps. Wine does not produce good sleep, but if you only have a few hours to sleep anyway... better something than nothing.

feel better.

Confused dolts and posology

waves, you make me feel like a dolt.
I have only run across the word in context... Per the definition, it sounds like my use was a little off... I've never looked this word up, and it is one I've known for years... gotten it from reading and gleaned meaning from context (since I know I've never looked it up). Either it is 1. used the way I use it as well or 2) it has broader meaning than the way I took it.

Anyway, if there is a dolt here, it would have to be me.

Smile med issues for Mari

Hi Mari, hope you and your Pdoc connect and you can find effective medication that doesn't hurt you. I know this is a tough issue at times and have experienced it myself. The best!

Arggghhhh!.
What was I thinking!!!!

He only has office hours from 9 to 12 tomorrow.
I probably have to wait until next week to talk to him.

Paresthesia started at 10:15 pm tonight --- a little less than 24 hours after my dose on Saturday.

I am sorry Mari.

How bad is it?

Are you ok to try keeping up this dose for a few more days, or a week?

What do you feel comfortable doing?
