If you have questions feel free to PM me or post them. I don't know everything but I"ve been on it a long time and at least have anecdotal experiences.

My main worry so far is making sure they ordered the right lab. I looked up what they ordered and it wasn't WBC or ANC but instead clozapine plasma levels, but the nurse and the lab person said WBC was included. I don't know why I'm worrying they obviously know, I'm just a worrier
