Thanks DW, i will probably buy a dvd so i can do it at home. Definitely willing to try this method of stretching. I'll see if I can google that style for long muscles, will be back to check here...
Has anyone tried yoga or pilates? My doctor suggested i try yoga or some stretching excercises that might help ease a bit of the pain. She mentioned tai chi as well....

I am on 25mg, i do sleep well, i just hope to adjust soon because the grogginess gets in the way of me performing my job. I have been so out of it at work. The dry mouth does make me drink more water...
