> Actually, I haven't gone too far ... I have been reading the board on and off, just stopped posting for awhile. I guess our stories are very similar ... failed/minimal relief from every med except nardil. I am on year 5 of nardil .... 60mgs and .5 klonopin ... nothing else works (except exercise and low stress and beer ... lol).

> Well, I have seen the "Godfather" of Nardil .. Dr. Quitken in the past. He told me nardil works 90% of the time on patients, but only 25% of the people can take the side effects. He actually told me that I could take some dexadrine with nardil to offset the afternoon sedation, sexual side effects and memory sluggishness. He uses prozac mainly now (mostly because of libby zion and her death on nardil and demerol .... actually it was the cocaine and nardil that may have cause her death).

>Damn! It's depressing to hear that only about 1/4 of people can tolerate Nardil. Did this Dr. Quitken say what side effects made people quit the most often?
