My pleasure.

I'll give him a call and see if he can recommend a big city neurologist.
> I know I'm approaching the 'elderly' category med wise, but actually I've always been super sensitive to meds.--2.5 mg of Paxil worked for a decade to stave of anxiety. So 12.5 mg of Zoloft is not quite as crazy as it sounds. And Serzone seemed like a good option as it helps with sleep, which has always been a problem.
