The thing is, when I raise my dose, I seem to get a clearer picture of my life, for better or for worse.

SP, I should pipe in more here. I do read your thread, and I really enjoy it. Sorry, I tend to have insecurities about posting, except in certain places. It is weird and I don't know why, but at least I'm aware and can be honest. It has nothing to do with you or anyone else here. I am working on it as you can see.
When you say you are "maxed out" on bac, do you mean you're building a tolerance? This would seem unlikely. I guess I'm a little confused as to what you mean exactly.
My instinct is you should go up and see what happens...how you feel. You can always come back down if need be.
I guess I missed Bluto's post. I have no idea how that happened. It's not like much going on here at this point, and I thought I read most everything. Too bad if I missed a good one.This Princess Saved Herself

Yeah I understand what you mean about posting in certain places. You, and everyone else, are welcome to post here of course. I get a lot from the feedback. Plus you've made an excellent joke or 2 in here.
What I meant about maxing out on bac, and I hope I'm wrong, is that I'm not sure if it could make me any less anxious. I'm not getting tolerant to it, but I think it may have done all it can as far as relaxing me goes. Sometimes when I increase my dose, the next day I sometimes feel like I'm on Xanax, but that seems to go away pretty quickly.Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.

That's the thing I love about the meds threads on MWO. I have a dark sense of humor, most people do here.
I don't know SP. You'll never know if you're maxed out unless you try to go up and see what happens.This Princess Saved Herself

I don't know if my doc will go past 150, which is actually quite amazing, considering I'm the first guy he's Rxed bac. He seems to be more intent on behavioral changes, which is fair, considering I really haven't made many. I'd like to shoot up to around 200 mg, but that wouldn't be possible with my doctor. I keep considering calling Dr. L and telling him my plan, but I'd feel kinda like a jerk if I fired this guy so soon after he's done this.Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.

Maybe you could do both: contact Dr L and get the extra bac and keep with your doc who sounds like the shits. Please bear in mind I'm rather old and out of touch with youth-speak, especially the variety emanating from the ex-colonies, so 'the shits' may not be the correct expression. It sounds as though it is a negative but is intended to be a positive. Rather like 'wicked' or 'sick'. It's all so terribly confusing.
Oh yeah Pete, the huge eyes and long eyelashes? You sound like a very pretty girl.:H

I second Murph. I had that inane situation where I got some - but not enough - and towards the end of my switch I was on 340mg - 360mg and running out.. Not that I would like to endorse/condone this, but putting it mildly, I was in a position where I was running out on the dosing schedule. Just so you know in case you are in the US, once you have your prescription approved it amounts to about $9 to $20 at any given Walgreens. That is what I found to be the best outlet for our scripts.------------------------------------------------------------

Yeah Alexan I have insurance so it comes out quite cheap at Rite Aid. When I tried to get Campral though, each pill turned out to cost 32 times as much as a bac pill. I guess that makes sense, considering my doc described them as horse pills :H
And Murph, it doesn't concern me too much what an elderly man with diarrhea on his mind thinks. The womenz love em, and that's all that mattersKnowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.

Hey Pete, how are you doing? Why does Murph have diarrhea on his mind? Maybe I can help him with advice. I learned this past week that my anti-diarrheal drug in large amounts produces an opiate like effect which for me meant unable to stay awake while not shitting my pants.

Pete - forget the diahrea or however you spell that. ("shits" is much easier to spell!) I want to know why Murph thinks you are a very pretty girl. I would RUN if I were you!!!!

I haven't had time to read this entire thread, but the last couple of pages were quite funny!
Hi Pete, I don't think I know you, but let's change that! I'll try to catch up later...I am being quite rebellious right now and posting from work and I shouldn't be doing that! :egad:
Hope you're all well.

Pete, by his own admission, has big green eyes and very long eyelashes. That sounds very girly to me.
Bruun, stop shitting your pants and get yourself to the doc.
DG, whenever I see your name I always misread it as DodgyGirl. I think you should change it to that. :H
K9Lover: your name reminds me of a joke......nah, not in mixed company.

Brutimus Maximus, I'm doing pretty good, thanks. I keep waking up with revelations about my life every morning, which is usually pretty rough! Thank God I finally had a good one this morning. Was about time!
Murphy rudely accused my doc of having diarrhea for some reason. I think there might be a language barrier between us :H
DG - Murph apparently confuses "features that women like" to "womanly features." But then again, the sport he loves is just a hot oil bath away from being gay porn :H
Thanks for the rating! Woop!
K9Lover, welcome to the party! I'm assuming that's you in your av?Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.

Pete, I just saw the pic you posted on Murph's thread. I will just say that in my opinion, that sport is already gay porn with a hot oil bath after. There is nothing remaining between "the sport" and the gay porn. That is all.
I wonder why I didn't find rugby pictures sooner in life considering the semi-nude men and all?
