Hi shaker, Flu symptoms, not sleeping good, zaps and hand sensations. Is there no end to these symptoms. Does your new doctor give you any hope for some relief? Do you or your doctor think your possible Social Anxiety could be a contributing factor? Is hand sensation, flu like symptoms or poor sleep new?

Hi there Jake. I’m to see my Dr at the end of Sept. she fgures all side effects will be gone by then. Darn I sure hope they are too. Lol. The poor sleep is the only symptom thats new. I generally wake up at 3-4 in the am and will only fall asleep for 15-20 min periods after that. I will try sleep meditation tonight if it happens again. Hopefully that will work. Just gotta keep the chin up up and think positive. MyDr thinks I have to get out and be more social and I plan on doing that. I feel much better when I do. We’ll just hope for the best. Take care......
