> At the end of September, I started taking my dose every other day, and am able to do that with minimal side effects. However, since the beginning of October, I have been experimenting with taking the dose every three days, and on the third day, I have a number of the side effects,
This is what I'm trying to do. I'm on only 37.5 mg and started trying to get off of it after being on for only a month but I experienced everything you're experiencing and so went back to 37.5/day. I'm really pissed about it. I have Addison's Disease (no adrenal glands) and went into crisis from the heat in August. Part of Addison's crisis is irritability, confusion, and depression. (It clears right up with corticosteroids in adequate dose.) Instead, for nine days, they gave me this frigging drug "for pain" and now I'm stuck with it.
I'm seeing a real doc tomorrow and hope he'll help me.
