thanks molly,

yeh, i think it was pain waking me up. because the last few nights as the pain is decreasing, the number of hours of uninterrupted sleep has climbed to about 5, that's an improvement.

and think that's due to the PT ultrasound of the trigger points.

joint pain seems to be about the same, but that doesn't keep me awake at the level its at.

at 1.5 mg, not sure i've seen much of anything, good or bad, but taking it slowly. after years and years can wait a few weeks or months if need be. will slowly increase when sure about the 1.5 mg.
