I can’t remember the name of it, but my neurologist gave me 5mg tabs of some antidepressant to treat migraine. He said to try 1 or 2, so I started with 2. Wow, I felt like a total zombie all day. He said later that the therapeutic dose for depression is something like 100mg. I cannot believe that anyone could function at that level. In a very short time I gained 10 pounds and said no more of that stuff. He switched me to something else that works much, much better without side effects.

When I worked in the hospital, at times on the cancer ward, narcotics are given to them that allow them to function, but the dosage would kill you or me....any doctor that withholds narcotics on cancer patients is a sadist...but some are leery because of a few doctors that are criminal and pass drugs as a hobby....it is to the detriment of those that have real pain....
