Ya, I'm drinking tonight too. Probably not a lot. I drink 3 drinks every other night now. Instead of 4 every night. My MCV is getting up there and I want to bring it back down.
YES, deffinitly take the z tonight so your doc does not put you on something else that may not work, then the whole cycle of meds that make you worse, in an atempt to fix some thing that works. Thats what I went through when I told my Pdoc that the z was making me fat. Realy all I had to do was eat less and exercise. But I went through a whole ordeal of med trials that evently dissabled me..
A lot of cerial is not good it will likely make you gain.
As for perphenazine. I'm not sure it realy helps a whole lot. And once agian I'm thinking I may stop it. But don't want to do it right away. I'm finding the gen z is working realy well right now since cutting down on alcohol. I do find the alcohol stabilizes me when the z is not working or I have been on a lower dose of z for a while. Its hard to to say exactly what perphenazine does because I've always taken it with Z. But after the abilify trial 5 years ago. I was very unstable for years and the perphenazine seems to have helped me get through that better. It helped sleep and anxiety and just a sense of total craxyness. I've decided that p is not a replacement to z, just a good add on.
