Depression continues to abate at the two week mark. I haven't really noticed any difference between placement on the upper body vs lower body, the effect seems the same. As far as side effects are concerned, there has been a little headache, but nothing arduous or worth taking a head-ache medicine for. Its been great getting involved in more activities, as well as plain being plain happier, particularly in looking to the positive side of personal encounters, rather than dwelling on negative, or "What could go wrong?"
I've not dropped the Klonopin dose, which may account for why the anxiety hasn't gone up as other posters have noted. I guess I'll never known on that one. My intention is not to be on klonopin forever, but if its actually synergistic w/ EMSAM, I may drop to reduced dose, somewhat like the route RobertDavid is on. I don't recommend throwing klonopin in for good measure, since klonopin is likely to produce dependency.
