Sounds like you're doing well Jim. I'm so glad to hear it. Just as a note..be sure to wean yourself off of the Effexor when that time comes. I went ct from that stuff and I was in a fog for a week. Terrible. I went back on..weaned myself off..and had absolutely no problems. Great drug...helped me a lot. Hope it helps you, too. Let me know if I can ever be of help..
