    hi Meg happy new year to you too. Yes I have had various aches and pains, they have only lasted a few days, nothing to worry about just our meds and overactive minds trying to trick us into panic. If they last longer then 10 days just get it checked out x

      Hi Sue

      Thanks for the msg. I just want to reply with a bit of encouragement. Today I woke up with awful aches and pains which is why I posted on this forum. Plus a massive headache and I could not understand why. But by 5pm something happened!! As you know I'm also constantly analyzing my feelings and from waking up feeling so bad... At 5pm it was like someone switched a light on. It felt familiar because I've had two weeks of feeling like that before... I suddenly started to feel a bit of a euphoric type of feeling. Basically just super positive energetic and motivated. The meds have kicked in at last I think. I've been waiting so long. I want to encourage you and everyone on this group to keep going!! The wait is worth it. I hope I'm not speaking too soon but I don't think so. I hope you're doing OK. Let me know how you're going.

      Thats brilliant Meg, I am so glad you are feeling better. I am ok at the moment, increased my dose on monday from 37.5 to 50 no side effects yet but I find, with me, they kick in about a week after increase but only last 5 days, we will see what happens. You are doing well and if you wake up tomorrow and something is not feeling quite right do not worry you are your way to getting better and better as time goes on x
