I alternated 5 and 6 for awhile and then maybe at 4 or 5 months, was able to alternate 6 and 7. My doc is happy with 6 clicks. I also switched to the morning. I read that Forteo works better in the morning, maybe because that is a more natural time for hormone release-? Anyway I was surprised that when I switched to the morning, my headache and vertigo improved. I have side effects no matter when I take it but unexpectedly, sleeping them off didn't work and I do better with taking the shot around 8:30am- trying to work it back a bit to 7. Everyone is different though!
