> Thank you for your suggestion! I have not tried Remeron for one reason. I have a history of chronic fatigue syndrome and I'm fine now, but easily sedated on meds. Still... it's strange. I'm on 250 Imipramine with no sedation and 100 Neurontin (a miniscule amount) made me a zombie. I've had 2 doctors warn me about Remeron sedation, so I'm reluctant. Also not sure what its implications are for pain which is why my doc is pushing effexor. I have a chronic pain condition called vulvodynia--chronic vaginal pain. Effexor seems to be working for other women with my condition though I'm not sure why. Maybe I'll post a question about that...

> LiaLia, I also suffered from vulvodynia. I saw a specialist in MI who was a God-send and got shots in my barth-glands and laser surgery. It's been 10 years and no more trouble... My husband & I had been unable to have "relations" things were so bad. Also, he recommended Elavil in low doses (I know it's an "old" drug) but for whatever reason it worked.
