Dona,
There are many more medications that you haven't mentioned trying. Are you seeing a psychiatrist? An antidepressant from a different class, or a combination of medicines might help you feel more able to face the problems in your life right now. Please don't think that you have run out of options. Keep after your Dr. until you get the help you need.
Psychotherapy can also help, especially with the grieving process. I have also discovered that adequate pain relief is essential if I am to control my depression, so don't neglect that issue when you see your doctor. Quilter
