Thanks for your experience pasdenom! I'm really glad it's working for you. It's very encouraging and I may be bumping up soon.

Best,

Peter

Maybe Lex has the same effect- I've seen research that indicates that there isn't a whole lot of difference between 10 and 20mg, but it's such a new drug and there are so many individual differences about how people respond to meds.
