Anyone gone from 100mg to 150mg and been fine with no side effects? I'm meant to up to 150mg tomorrow I've done 100mg for 5 weeks now and doc wants to up it as I still feel edgy

    Yeah, I went up from 100mg to 150mg around the same mark and then felt it was too much for me. It made me almost catatonic, like in a stupor. And more neck stiffness and diarrhea. If I were you I’d live with the edgy feeling for up to 2 months before I raise it. But this is just me though. Best of luck. Take care. XX

    Hi Kayleigh, How are you doing on 150? I've been on it for 7 days and I had one bad day and one really horrible day but the other days were good. I really think I will be good on it. Hope you will too.

      Hi Kayleigh - Today is day 14 on 150. I had a great weekend but yesterday was awful and today is just a tiny bit better. My breathing is heavy and I have this lump in my throat.
