Good for you! It sounds like you are blessed with a doctor who is willing to listen to his or her patient’s needs. Believe it or not every doctor does not want to let the patient have any input in their dosing…period. I applaud you for being brave enough to get your dose lowered to your tolerance and not trying to hold onto those extra strips you could keep getting prescribed to you. This would have been a victory for me…honestly, I was after the highest dose I could get when I first started. I am glad now that I got a doctor who wouldn’t write more than the 8mg per day…as hard as it has been to taper from that I can’t imagine how hard it would be to go from those extreme doses like 32mg.
Now that you have a lowered dose and seem to have at least one day under your belt of feeling good I bet things will continue to improve and you should be good pretty soon! Now you can just sit back and enjoy being you for awhile.
