Astounder, you are correct again! I actually discussed your responses with my Dr. He thanks you too! As I mentioned, I went from 1/2 of 9mg patch for two days (removed at bedtime), last weekend. Felt fantastic. Afraid I might lose my previoius response so on Monday went on 6mg. after 3 days, started getting really bad headaches and that racing feeling. Today I did not put anything on. Headached gone. No chest tightening. Saw Dr.. He agrees with me that I must have too much in my system. He does not know how long the drug actually stays in blood. So he suggested I try tinkering with cutting the 6mg in half for a few days, then go up to half of the 9mg since I still have a supply. But your info last week about the seizures made me feel so much less scared. I think I'm beginning to get a sense of what this drug feels like and think the states of extreme anxiety and the broncho-spasms are directly related to the drug dosage. I don't think I'm allergic, thank God! I have been more active in the last week than in the last entire 6 months put together. I'm starting to believe (don't want to jinx it) I might get myself back, despite my Dr.'s dire prediction that I won't ever be able to function as I once did or find a job and return to work at the same level. I'm so grateful to all of you out there who take the time to share your knowledge and experiences.
