Meg, you are a fount of wisdom. I like that split dose approach. I am going to try it.
(An aside: if you are a rose aficionado, what’s the name of the rose in your emblem? No answer needed if not known.)

I can't take credit for the split dose idea - I started doing it after reading this forum where others had done it with good results. And some studies have found it helpful for morning pain control too. Apparently, the majority of the dose should still be taken in the morning to more closely mimic the body's own cortisol production.
(No, I can't tell you which variety of rose it is. I found it in a search for something like "beautiful rose".)
