I started on the Big 3 about three weeks ago and am actually doing better than I expected. Fatigue, nausea and headaches are my worst side effects. Can anyone advise when the headaches go away? Also, how would I go about finding a support group in New Jersey or even NYC? Thanks in advance for any advice.

@gardenernj @megan123 Yes I could take a nap in the late afternoon after everyone else leaves from work. I can't sit too long or I get very sleepy. This mostly started when I started the Big 3.
@megan123, Hello J! 3:00 -4:00 is my lay-down time too. Then up at 5:00. Have 1/2 cup coffee to get energy together to make dinner.
@gardenernj, Hi there. I am glad that you are feeling some improvement after starting your meds. If you join a local support group; I hope you will still check in with us and give us updates on how you are doing; especially when you are recovered. We could all use a beacon of hope. As for a local support group, I know that http://www.ntminfo.org has support groups by state. You can go on their site and check it out.
