It is true with almost any medication that is one of a class of drugs that often changing drugs or lowering the dosage can eliminate the problem symptoms.
Yes, I have a riding buddy with a similar experience - no problems whatsoever. We're all different. I was on a minimal dose and did change drugs, but no improvement. Been off them now for 2 months, almost over my PMR and for the first time in a year, I feel alive again. I just started to train again 10 days ago, having been in the worst condition I can remember. I'm already stronger and more able.
