Today had my second infusion bumped it up from .5 to .75 and WOW I felt the difference. Just got home feel a slight calmness same as the first infusion. I hope I don't feel the break through anxiety the next day like it did on the first, it was terrible. Next Tuesday will be my third infusion and I think they are going to bump it up to 1.0 ?
Been trying to cut down my klonopin .5 X 3 per day to .5 X 1 time a day ( over the last month ), I think that is were the break through anxiety is coming from - best not to be on any benzos during treatment. |

of the other symptoms. Of course, it could be that I just have plenty to be anxious about. I'm caring for my very elderly father and that is really stressing me out. You use a different dosing protocol than I do. They started me at 35 though they didn't specify the unit of measure. I'm assuming it's in micrograms based on all the material I've read on it. They upped it each time until I got to 75 by the end of the first six infusions. They dose me at 80 for boosters. __________________ You're only given one little spark of madness.

Yeah, my dad can keep me quite busy at times.
I've been helping him set up a booth in an antique shop. Sorry about that. Are you feeling any improvements yet? It didnt help my anxiety as much as I would have liked. I still have to take the occasional 2 mg of klonopin to ratchet myself back down. It's like once the anxiety gets ahold of me, theres no letting go without taking pills. I hate that. I feel like I should be able to talk myself down. I hope my next booster helps. __________________ You're only given one little spark of madness.

No after 4 infusions I feel the same terrible with anxiety, I think I am a no responder but I am going to do all 6.
You must be functioning OK if you are able to help your Dad out like you are doing, there is no way I could right now. Yeah the anxiety is the worst thing ever - I have lost all hope. When is your next booster ? |

I haven't scheduled my next booster yet. I'm still feeling good. I'll post when I feel it wearing off, though. __________________ You're only given one little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it. ~ Robin Williams Did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? ~ Pink Floyd |

No and I am leaving for my 8th infusion in a few minutes, 7th one was at 1.15 and I think the 8th will be the same or even a little higher ?
How are you feeling, when is your next infusion ? |
