Clonidine Sinus Congestion, Clonodine, Lab Rats, Eyesight, 9 Months

Just so you all know this, clonidine is used by sleep researchers to destroy REM sleep in lab rats. I gather that for some folks sleep does not become an issue, but I didn't sleep more than two full nights during the entire 9 months or so I took this filth. On average, I only got 2-3 hours, which was devastating. I also had perpetual sinus congestion, the worst I could imagine. And my eyesight was compromised. Everything got better, dramatically, when I was eased off this drug (my eyesight, however, has never returned to the 20/20 I had before, and in fact is pretty mediocre now). However, don't try going off this drug on your own, or fast. You must EASE off it over a period of weeks or more, else you could have a potentially fatal BP rebound into hypertensive crisis.
