Went to my Pdoc yesterday, and he agreed I was on too much Trazodone causing daytime sedation. He also said he thinks reducing my ativan too quickly is part of the prob. One month ago I was on 8mgs. or more ativan daily, two days ago i was down to 3 a day...remember i've been on ativan over 20rs. At verious doses for 3-12 mgs. going down to 3 in one month was too much for me, I increased it wed. or thurs and immediatly felt a little better at 4 1/2 mgs. He wants me to stay right at 4 1/2 to 5 mgs. a day for awhile- he thinks and I agree, the reduced ativan is making the insomnia worse, and that's why I needed so much Trax to get to sleep. He reduce my Traz to 250 for a few nights and then further to 200. Last night it worked! I slept really well and woke up this morn. at 6:00 am without hangover or drowsiness.
