> PS: Cindy, after 3 months at 150 mg effexor is not quite doing it for me, did you notice a difference when u jumped to 275mg, was it a big improvement? Just wondering if I should suggest going higher on the dosage to my dr.... thx! SnowdancerSnowdancer: You didn't ask me, but thought an answer might be helpful anyway... ...if not, you can ignore it :-)... I worked my way up to 300...25 mg at a time...and somewhat reluctantly (although at my choice), once I was above 200mg (some crazy notion of mine, that that should CERTAINLY be enough)...I found that each 25mg added, brought me just a bit closer to feeling "OK"... and when I hit 300mg...it just felt right. I don't know if everyone senses a difference in such small increments...but if you're tuned into your body and you're not feeling "right" yet at 150mg...but tolerating the drug well, I'd suggest it to your Doc. Best of luck to you. ....Rita
