> I've been thinking about all the meds I've taken in the past....and think it is very odd how with most of them, even at very high doses I can stop them cold turkey with zero side effects.. (Effexor max dose...cut in half for a couple days, then none)..Was on incredibly high dose of Xanax XR (9mg daily) for about 6 months....tapered completely off that in about 1 - 2 weeks. I'm on Lamictal 250 mg daily, and don't notice anything at all if I ever skip doses. What's my deal???
So long as your physician has checked your pulse, to verify that you have one, I'd say you're more than lucky. You're nauseating. (Intended to be funny, in case there's any doubt....)
I am Mr. Side-Effect. I get the ones that occur in less than 1% of users. I truly think one of the reasons my last pdoc dropped me from his practise is that he was tired of hearing me list the effects of each drug he offered, and why I couldn't take it. Poor sod, having to listen to me.
