Hello sleepy lizard,
Thanks for your feedback on my long saga. It's too bad that the medical profession as a whole has become so entrenched in its beliefs, thanks to the power of the drug companies. If you want to try an MAOI, you have t he right to do so. As adults, we should have the final right to makesuch decisions that affect our own health, even if it means taking a gamble.
If you really want to give Parnate a try, then you should consider switching doctors, and find one who will do it for you. Meanwhile, good luck with the Remeron! As far as Aurorix is concerned, I can't start taking it for another 12 days (2 weeks must elapse between discontinuance of an SSRI and the start of an MAOI).
I very much doubt if Aurorix will ever become available in the U.S., based on what I've read. It's been around for many years, but the manufacturer, Roche, reportedly gave up on the idea of trying to market it in the U.S.
