I was increasing by 25 mg every two weeks but I think I am going to increase by 12.5 mg from now on . I was at 75mg and backed off to 50mg 'cause I was feeling so bad.....the pains and aches have let up a fair bit and I am not nearly so tired plus sore ears throat gone....I am going to wait a week and then titrate up again...thanks for the encouragement everyone!
