Any tips/suggestions?

I'm planning on starting by breaking up the 5mg tabs into eighths (.625 mg, for the non-mathematicians) to see how well my body handles this dosage.

What type of side affects should i have an eye out for in the first week(s) of treatment? I was very hesitant to even want to try this drug, but knowing that it very well may be the best solution available, i'm going to give it a shot -- but intend on being careful in doing so.

Do any of you have any suggestions or tips in regards to what to look for in the early stages of use? If the drug isn't going to work for me, then i don't intend on continuing use, but there are side-affects, and then there are SIDE-AFFECTS!!!. i want to try to avoid any "SIDE-AFFECTS" if possible, and if i begin to experience them, then to take the next step (if there are any) to begin ending my usage.

tips/tricks/stories would all be helpful.

Thanks.

Don't let it scare you. Just keep it in mind, and know what to look for. Take action as soon as possible, if you get hit by side effects. It's progressive. You'll have reduced libido, ED and possibly some interference from prolactin before anything else. You'll be fine as long as you react immediatly if you experience any sexual side effects.
