Has anyone experienced increased anxiety/agitation on the first few weeks of Buspar?

I am in my third week on 15 mg every morning. I did have some initial side effects such as dizziness and feeling off-center for the first week. Since on the med, I've been experiencing higher anxiety on the morning, and lower amounts of sustained anxiety through out the day. I see my doc Thursday. Has anyone had this experience the first few weeks on Bu-spar, and did you eventually find relief from anxiety with dosage tweaks?

    You should have a leaflet in the pack, look for side effects, and they do include dizziness, nausea, headache, nervousness, lightheadedness, and excitement.

    According to the site linked below side effects "may sometimes get worse before they improve. It may take up to a month or more to get the full effect of this medication."
