Using the generic from big pharmacies plus insurance I pay about $1 per month for it.It was less expensive than I expected.
Same here. But you can start at very low doses, you can dose in AM to avoid insomnia.Insomnia is not something I can handle
I think this is the main barrier. It helps a lot of people, so I think is it worth a try. I understand the fear, but worth a talk to your doc, if he or she knows about it.It's hard to find a doctor to rx it. Most are unfamiliar with low dose therapy. Yes you can order it online like I do but a lot of people are uncomfortable with that. So those are two other barriers.

It didn't work for me, it increased my pain too much - and pain is/ was not a real problem for me - so that surprised me.
I've been taking it for a month now. I had insomnia for the first 2-3 weeks no matter what time of the day I took it. As many people have said, the sleep disturbances should go away after a couple of weeks.Same here. But you can start at very low doses, you can dose in AM to avoid insomnia.
I had what seemed like detox symptoms too. My sweat would have a horrible ammonia type smell, like cat urine. This seems to have subsided somewhat but it's still noticeable.I did have some detox initially, but I was prepared for it, and used my standard treatment, coffee enemas.
