At 10 mg reduced to 5.. there probably aren't many side effects to speak of .. if any. Most of us were on some higher dosage (30 is considered moderate to high.. 40+ is considered high - i think). And for a month or more. I didnt notice any side effects the first month. The second month they started. I've just been reduced to 10 / day this week. It will take anywhere from a week to amonth or more for the effects to diminish.. if they are going to ! Sugar has already reduced a bit. Morning sugar was averaging 160-180. Since hiting 10 mg it's been running under 120 every morning.
Ravenous appetite ? I swear Im eating for a family of four. I have day dreams of walking thru the grocery store like it's my own personal buffet !! And yes.. it defies all logic. Ive managed to control it to the extent that Ive only gained 2 pounds in the last 2 months. I will lose it.. I will lose it .. I will go grazing for dinner later !
The puffiness is still there.. but it's not been a week on 10 yet so there is still an opportunity to lose some of it. we'll see.
