DUE TO A GLITCH IN BLOGGER, MY POSTS DO NOT ALWAYS POST IN ORDER BECAUSE THEY POST USING THE TIME THAT I STARTED THE INITIAL DRAFT. I DO MY BEST TO CORRECT THIS WHENEVER POSSIBLE, HOWEVER SOME SLIP BY, SO PLEASE REMEMBER TO READ THE TITLES OF MORE THAN JUST THE MOST RECENT POST IF YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS ANYTHING.

Clonidine, again

So, thanks to the killer headache after my first dose of clonidine 0.1mg (100mcg), I decided to only take 0.05mg (50mcg) last night. No headache and it did help me sleep, but didn't hit me like a brick wall. Also, I noticed since I woke up today that my neuropathic leg pain is less severe than usual. Of course, this could be part of the natural fluctuation of pain, but I'm hoping that the medication is helping.

I'm about to take my third dose and I'm worried that I'll have another bad reaction. So, fingers crossed.

I hope everyone is doing well and in minimal pain.
