> No the pdoc just wanted me to get a blood level once I was at 900 mg. Is that unusual?

I don't think it is unusual. If you blood levels are higher than they should be you might feel it through tremors. I got those at 1200mg. My regular dose is at 900mg. I get blood levels checked twice a year. They range from 0.6 to 0.9. And this is the right level for depression augmentation, although the levels can be slightly lower to be effective.
