You're welcome! I'm glad your doctor is supportive. What additional meds are they giving you? It's good to keep things as simple as possible, and sometimes adding other drugs to the mix can complicate things. It's just something to be aware of. Keep us posted on how things are going for you. 💝

She added some Aterax 25mg to ease off the jitters and sweating.
