This is my experience with this med:
I was on 1mg for two months. At this dosage it didn't help-- It actuallygave me bizarre dreams, that I could only remember for about 1 minute after waking up. My doc discontinued it.

My doc is very open to discussing meds. She would think that it was good that I was doing some research. She always tells me that we are partners in this and she values my feelings and input. She's great.
