    If I read correctly you have increased from half every other day to half every day. If you are coming off and we're ok. ? You are in reverse ?? I know increasing dose / changing does causes your symptoms. The advice I have seen is take every day but keep cutting the tablet up to get the smaller dose. At some point I guess you just have to take the plunge and home you stay in functional mode

    Good luck. I hope to also get off these tablets so would be interested in ready your journey

    Take care
