elevated blood pressure which was pretty high
to begin with. Reduced the dose from 150 back to 75 which seems to have helped. Will be discussing the BP situation with my Doc this week.) I'm also on Trazodone 150 at bedtime which definately helps in the sleep department. Perhaps somewhat more "jittery" than usual, but then again I'm also a "jittery" type to begin with. The good news is that I'm now MUCH better able to handle my anx/depress. It's not gone by a long shot and given my current circumstances as well as history I really do not, and did not, expect magic. To me, ANY relief from misery is a good thing.
