"i took the starter dose once and the doctor took too long to prescribe my reg dose so i had to re-do it again but the first time i took it, i didn&#039;t notice any changes besides numbness in my fingers and toes. the second time i took the starter dose it helped with my anxiety and i had regular bowel motion, which was great since my bowel motion is abnormal. my appetite decreased a bit as well, no weight loss though. then i got on the regular dose and my anxiety has worsen, i don&#039;t have an appetite or cravings which causes me to miss meals and i get headaches. i have a cotton/dry mouth, metal taste in my mouth, insomnia, back pain, it&#039;s been a week and a half, i&#039;ve lost 6lbs with regular exercise, not sure if i should wait it out or go on the starter dose again."
