Guest guest Posted August 6, 2004 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 Dave, That is very interesting. I was just wondering how this was proven and if anyone medically related is taking notice? 3mg and 4.5mg certainly didn't hurt me, keep in mind I am very progressed to start with. 6mg is what I am taking now, and I have noticed even better sleep and bladder control! I slept for 8 hours straight last night! Yea!! This has only happened (to this extent) for me on 6mg. It is such an individual thing. Wouldn't it be nice if it worked the same for everyone?

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2004 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 When I decided to post that Dr. B put me on 6mg. I thought about it for months. I was afraid it would start a frantic scramble for many so I waited. Hoping it may help some that cannot see Dr. B, I told my story as to why he thought I may be resistant and why I was upped to 6mgs. Dr. Bihari does not recommend 6mgs to anybody else but one other besides myself (2 out of 400 patients) so be very careful, there is a reason he does not do this for others.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2004 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 For Dave I imagine if you continue to take any thing beit drugs, booze even some suppliments too excess it can harm you. The key here is to listen to your body,When I upped my dose to 4.5mgs I got so stiff in my left hand and arm that I could no longer even do stretching exersizes. So I listened to my body and dropped down to 3.0mgs again. The time frame here was so short that "unlimited harm" which would have been my body doing it's SPMS thing, never happened. was that luck? No, I listened to my body just as you listen when it says I am thirsty water me. I am glad you were able to listen to your wife and dropped hers down, we are not all equall and even though we have the same disease, we have to use different amounts/methods to get relief.
