Thanks a lot for your post! Since it's just 5 more days until my appointment, I think it's going to be wiser if I keep taking it until then. I can't call my doctor, because on Wednesday I'm seeing a new one. The problem with my old doctor is that she always sounded so vague about everything I asked... Not to mention a couple of things she said that sounded like her not knowing her job very well. For example, she was suprised that Paxil had had a sedating effect on me. It seems to be like this for everyone who's tried it! So, I found a new name on my insurance's pdoc's directory and made an appointment. As for the dosage, this is one more thing that I think she didn't do right with me. She put me on a 150mg dosage once a day for 2 months. Most people tend to take that dosage only for a week or two, as far as I've read. She gave me two prescriptions because I was going to be away on vacation for quite a long time, and my insurance determines that you can have just one appointment a month with the same doctor, which means that I couldn't go back there before my trip. The thing is, I think she should have instructed me on increasing the dosage after a certain time... Well, thanks for replying so promptly!
Cheers,
Ric
