Well, I'm glad you're doing well.
You increased your dosage under your pdoc's supervision, I get that now. Perhaps he was not a great pdoc because if he knew how you felt, I believe he should have slowed the process to get to 150mg. That's what's happening to me. I reacted greatly initially, kept in touch with my doc, and so we took it in very little steps.
You were lucky not to have much side effects of quitting cold turkey; I am not putting blame or anything negative here, I just read many posts of people who tried that and had problems for a while.
Good luck to you with future treatments. You mentioned this pdoc was your *previous* pdoc - it sounds like a good idea to make a change there.
