So spoke to doctor today as I’m coming off my tablets the last 3 weeks I’ve been taking one every other day today the doctor has said I need to do the same for another 3 weeks so I’m total 6 weeks ? Eh I’m confused will that even work or should I now do every 2 days

    Take your time,  you may feel fine now but it can creep up on you.  Follow the doctors advise.  I rushed it with mine and felt terrible a month on and had to go back on them.  I have now decided that I will probably always need a low dose but I have accepted this.  Good luck and let us know how you get on xx

    Please remember that on here we’re not medical practicioners. The forum is good for encouragement and realising that we’re not on our own. That other people have had similar symptoms and struggles. But we should always take the doctors advice. Even if someone on here has been told to do it another way by another doctor, we’re all different. Please follow whatever your doctor says. 

    Hope you get on ok.
