D'oh



Have you ever been on a medication where the doctor sort of weaned you onto it? You start a low dosage and then work your way up to the full dosage. I have, lots of times. And this is why I should have known better.

Last Thursday when I got some medications from the LCC Health Clinic that had come in from a drug company, I was so excited, I took my full dose. The next day I did the same thing.

And then I couldn't figure why I felt so messed up - groggy and dizzy and disoriented and sleepy. Then it occurred to me. Your body just isn't meant to go from 0 to 120 mg all at once.

D'oh!

But VERY glad to be on them again!
