Double dose
I've been doing the 10am dose routine for a week now and I'm definitely much happier with it.
At the end of Week 2, my Doctor contacted me. It was just a random call to check in to see how I was getting on. It was great having the chance to let her know how I'd been finding things so far!
She wasn't surprised that I felt I needed to go up a dose as we had started on the "baby dose" due to my height and weight!
She told me that I can double up on these 10mg's to try it, and to let her know whether I'd like the 20's after trialling with the doubling. So I will make a couple more updates on this one. I don't know whether I'll do the hourly record, or just the summary yet though.
