My dr hasn't said anything about klonopin having to go and I'm on 2 mg every night. So she must not think it is a big problem although I'm extremely hard to sedate which might make her worry less. But generally she is very on top of things and I know she's run an interaction checker on my meds at least 2 times, I think 3, while preparing for this.

Blood work every 2 weeks? That's unusual. The drug recommends (and I thought the registry required) every week for 6 months. My pdoc just had to do a training on it a couple of weeks ago so I know that is the most up-to-date information they are using at my hospital. She'd thought I'd need weekly blood draws for a year until that training so I was really glad for the timing of it.

I wouldn't take it until I had all my questions answered and felt ready. I know you really need to be on something ASAP but I know that I feel like I need to be 100% committed to this stuff before I take my first dose although that has more to do with coming off Seroquel than the clozaril; once i'm off the Seroquel my safety net is gone and there won't be one until the clozaril is working, if it works. With everything going on the last 5 days I've been running on adrenaline and feeling like I'm suddenly better but as the adrenaline leaves I am faced with reality again. I think I just want to keep putting it off month after month for as long as I can stand it. And if I have to come off Klonopin too I may well do that .
