But it very quickly got better and within a week I didn't feel groggy at all, even after increasing the dose (adding daytime doses). And and hour and a half after I took the first one, the pain in my neck went completely away. It was miraculous. (I have degenerative disk disease, too). It never worked that great again for the pain but it certainly helped. It didn't help with anxiety, though.

Thanks for your response! It is so encouraging. Also encouraging is the fact that I woke up today without the feeling in my lower back like someone hit me there with a baseball bat. Anxiety-wise, I'm doing well. Maybe that's the clonazepam and the doxepin working.
Keeping my fingers crossed,
(darned OCD - LOL!)
