I have been totally off for 2 weeks now!! I got down to removing 7 of the little balls in my 37.5mg capsule and decided to power through the dizziness if I could. It never got worse through the day when I didn't take another pill. I took Benadryl to sleep at night as that was the worst time. I still had dizziness and just a couple brain zaps for about a week off and on but it has all stopped the last few days, (I hope).

@pugmom Dram*mine (or Bon*ine) works great for the dizziness. I take 1/2 to a whole pill as needed.

That sounds hopeful.
