New Therapy?

Posted by sailpappy (166.62.180.25) on February 15, 2000 at 05:08:08:

Hello all,
I'm up after a combined total of 2 hours sleep and excited about starting a new therapy I learned about from one of the Board Members.
After an inital first visit to the Neurologist armmed with my history and some research papers I got him to write me a script for "Clonidine" and I'm wondering if anyone else has tried this drug?
I have the medicine but I'm so aprehensive about starting to take any meds after so long I couldn't bring myself to take it yet.
I just finished attack #4 since Midnight and don't dare lay back down, while I'm on the computer I have an Ice bag balanced on my head and still feel like the last one isn't completely aborted yet so If any one out there has had any experience with this medication I would appreciate some feedback.
