Thanks for the feedback, X Ray :)
I like my doc a lot, and I really don't blame her for cooking up this combination as a last resort, as I've been complaining about my insomnia for months. She's not a fan of unwarranted polypharmacy, for instance it took a lot of convincing to get her to prescribe Seroquel for sleep.
Maybe I should just put up with the insomnia, I'm not willing to give up Prozac - difficulty sleeping is the only side effect I'm experiencing, and it's a small price to pay for feeling stable and well.
Thanks again :)
