My experience was the same, time wise as Lisa’s. They had me wean off the Dex for a week, just cutting my dose gradually until I was done. While taking the Dex I ate and ate and ate, it seemed like and was always overfull whether I ate a lot or a little. That I did not like and was glad when I could wean off of it! I had really bad headaches afterwards for maybe 2 weeks or a bit more then those subsided and everything was fine! Good luck to you! :)
