GP this evening for various things. Headache-wise I have a script for Propranolol, which I am looking forward to trying.

In a very strange state now. Really ought to eat but don't quite trust myself to cook, and seem to have run out of sandwich filling. I guess I could make toast. Think I may just do that and then go to bed.

I noticed that in the GP's office and somehow managed not to giggle.

If you get adverse affects on 80mg, it's worth backing all the way to 40mg (20mg 2x per day) and working your way back up.

K.

Script calls for me to start on 40mg to start with then increase to 80mg after a week.

This is the first preventative thing I will have tried since 2003, quite excited! (hmm, perhaps I should do an import of my old mono diary to here at some point).

I've been messing around with my dose for ages and ages. I think it does help, but my system FREAKS OUT at everything except opiates, pretty much, so it's ended up being very gradual. I am currently on 60.

According to Wikipedia, Propranolol has interactions with ergot alkaloids, so try to avoid LSD while you're on it. ;)
