Sigi, what does lowish expectations mean?
So far I have read there are two doses made. One fairly low 2mg and that is what chronic pain patients (fibromyalgia) take. The other 8mg may be given for opoid dependency.
I don't know. I have been reading about it on a fibromyalgia forum. The person on it longest has been two plus years at her starting dose.
The half life is 36 hours, so discontinuation is said to be very attenuated and unpleasant (by some).
Maybe the opoid thing freaks me out. Though could it be worse than some meds I am on or have been?
I dig a pony.
