Hi Havehope
I can only speak from my own experience,but reading your post I think you are going to CT whilst having childcare responsibilities ?
If this is correct I urge you to reconsider
CT is brutal
I literally could barely make it between bed and toilet (4 metres!!) by day 4 I could barely lift my head
If one of my CT attempts ( There were several before I got there )put me In hospital
If you have any choice at all a taper would save you and your family an awful lot of suffering .Even if I have misread and you do not have to deal with childcare I would still never recommend CT to anyone
If your mind is set then we will of course support you all the way
I bought the cheapest magnesium spray and it did help with the RL to some extent but I did lose an awful lot of sleep!!
I wish you all the best and I will be rooting for you every hour of every day
