Hey MJ,
 
You always make it through even though it does seem you get more than your fair share of side effects.  My back has completely cleared up!  I was taking 6 mg Ativan and then I went to a psychiatrist for depression.  When she found out about the Ativan she said she would prescribe something else in the same family which is clonopin.  I only take 2 mg a day -- one in the morning and one at night and I don't have any back pain at all!  She said what I had was "perceived" pain like the phantom pains that amputees get.  The nerves send the wrong message to the brain and cause you to believe that you're in pain.  I am so relieved!
 
You use that eye gel that's mineral oil and vaseline don't you?  It will help your eye.
 
Love,
Susan

Hi:

this morning I woke up with a very red eye, a stopped up ear, and then diarrhea.  What a morning!  My legs had been aching but I've started the potassium capsules again, and that's gone away.  The eye is still red, the ear is better, and so on.  We know we're living, MJ
