So I finally got to see my GP yesterday ad he upped me from20mg to 30mg, and has adv that I should up it myself to 40mg if not better in 2 weeks, then will have afollow up appt in 4 weeks fdrom now.

Woo, hooray for meds!

Feeling kinda weird- sorta woozy, dizzydrunk almost. Can anyone adv, if I find the 30mg or 40mg doesn't improvematters, do you think it would be worth trying different meds altogether? I can't just keep upping the dose on cit, but I'm familiar with the side effects./ Also I heard if you start, then stop,cit it can stop working if you go back on it later?

I would have thought that 2 weeks is nowhere near long enough to let the new dose "bed in". I would have thought more like 6 weeks - but hey I'm a computer specialist not a doctor!

You know, I have to agree with you. I'm just now finding the new level of side effects bearable. Then again, I have foundmy GPa bit... enthusiastic... about prescribing. Last time I visited when I was doing fine, he offered to double the meds!

I've got a referral for a crazy-person doctor now though, so I'll speak to themabout whether or not they are able to takecontrol over the prescription of my medsmaybe...

One funny thing, I've found the dizzy is improved by increasingmy salt intake. Odd, butatleast that is a fairly easy thing to do!

Hey - I don't think you're a crazy person!
salt is good for low adrenals.
