Thanks, Jack. Another thing I was thinking is that I was "blasting" myself with the full dosage at one time (which I was told by pdoc to do and the manufacturer advises). Yesterday I tried 75mg in the am and then another 37.5mg in the afternoon. I *think* that helped with the sweating a bit.
I also admit, I drink a big mug of strong coffee in the am after meds which probably doesn't help, but it's the one small joy I have in my life before my daughter wakes up. Regardless, I have always drunk coffee (unless I was in the throws of anxiety) and didn't sweat like this. I still attribute the sweating to the XR.
Thanks again for your thoughts.
JM
