Dr Goldberg, thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately, I've developed the tolerance to medications, which means the dose increase doesn't help. I already tried Parnate and Lithium as well.
My problem is: once the combo of drugs is working, how to sustain the response.
Can you recommend a specialist/clinic that can help with that problem?
Is there any hope?
Also, I read about two European drugs such as Memantine and Acamprosate that can prevent the poop-out. Unfortunately none of the doctors in U.S. is familiar with these drugs.
