@mrser52 Elaine, may I suggest you keep written notes for the first several weeks? All your medications, time of days, time you eat, how you feel Physically/emotionally/mentally. Write down what the Dr has told you to expect regarding the new medication working. I'll bet that when you look back at the notes in several months, you may see that change you wanted!

Hello@mrser52, I just wanted to encourage you to keep the written notes as @gingerw suggested in order to see how the new medication is working. Written notes can be a great way to deal with medication and/or diet changes and give you a good picture of how you are doing. Thanks for that great suggestion, Ginger!
