After stopping spironalactone for about 2 weeks due to a medication change to a generic form of coreg (and feeling more awake and focused than I have for a long time), today I took my first dose of hydrocholrot and within the hour was feeling dopey and slightly achy. I napped for an hour (usually 20"-30" refreshes me ) and was still dopey. Lay down and slept for another hour. I am now awake but do not have the clarity and focus I had before taking the hydrocholorot. I ended up skipping a meeting I would have attended today because I felt pretty crumby. This was my very first dose and I am considering not taking it tomorrow in order to see if there is a difference when I don't take it.
