In reply to Reboxetine side effects: Very bad news! » mat, posted by JGm on May 2, 2002, at 7:02:42
hi JGm-
that's indeed bad news. i hope everything will be allright soon. but what happened to you is exactly what i fear most. as i already mentioned, i was extremely sensitive to the (sexual) side-effects with the other meds.
concerning my rebox-trial: my pdoc and i, we together decided that i won't start the rebox now, because it seems my mood has stabilized in the last two or three weeks, after i stopped this terrible milnacipran. and-my relation cannot accept another period of sexual abstinence. of course, it's possible to try to combat the sexual-side effects with still another med, but then i'm into this "circulus vitiosus" that i always wanted to avoid.
i hope your impotence will vanish in the near future, and i hope we will stay in contact. i really appreciated you letting me know about your trial.
take care
