I am scheduled to recieve my first months supply very soon and I am concerned that I have questions doctors and Orphan may not give me straight anwers to.
The pharmacist at Orphan told me the level my doc. ordered for the first month is not enough to actually induce sleep.
This concerns me as Id prefer not to start something that may be dependency causing and yet derive no bennifit before a month is up.
Are there other benifits besides sleep? It seems such a hassle and obviously expensive. It seems like a tremendous comittment in so many ways.
Since Ive quit ambien per my doctors orders, my late night surfing has resumed.
I think most of the doctors I know would like to see me continue increasing my Neurotin dosage, to help stabilize my sleep patterns. I am already having significant word recall difficulty and dont wish to follow that plan.
Im willing to give this a try, but anyone posting positive experiences with Xyrem ( and negative) could really help me make up my mind.
