Things are going pretty well. I just saw my dr and got the script for 25mg tabs. I've had a little bit of anxiety when I've left home and then got back later than I wanted to take the next dose. But I've managed it pretty well with deep breathing and conscious relaxation tape. I still have trouble with tingly fingers, but I'm not now sure what to attribute it to. I am now seeing a chiropracter for some SI joint pain and a life-long problem of a bit of scoliosis which he says may be pinching some place in my back causing a little numbness in my hand. It's all so complicated to sort everything out from the other and identify what's causing what.
What's an example of an anti-convulsant? I have taken benedryl a few times - especially at night but I still don't get a solid nights sleep. How does the benedryl work to alleviate symptoms? I don't quite understand that.
Thanks for checking in. I've just been busy with other things and I guess that's a good sign.
