just asked for a script to try it out, he wrote it, i picked it up and figured it out on my own.
nothing to it, although a full 6mgs. did make me stranger than normal and i cut it down to injecting manually using only 3mgs. the chest tightness stopped after cutting back on the dose as well.
this is easy to do and works on the HA if i catch it right away, also takes away some of the hungover feel i was getting. if you don't need it why subject your body to more than it is dealing with already.
driving? i can drive with most moderate attacks, now i am not saying i want to drive or that i should be driving ... i CAN drive. i think! guess i should ask some of those people i have screamed at while on the 'get me home' mission.
Good luck and do what you feel safe with. If in doubt ... you know what they say.
