Thanks again Sooshi. Your information is VERY helpful in addition to being encouraging.
I have yet to start the Zonegran as I am having some kind of toxic effect from the Marplan which I am trying to figure out with my Pdoc.
I would like to add on the Z as soon as possible though until we can sort out the Marplan situation he doesn't want to add anything new to the mix so as to avoid possible confusion as to what is doing what.
Though this is a common situation and I have been through it many times,I find it very frustrating. Particulary after hearing the success you are having with the med. I see him Tuesday and will hope to get some direction as to where to go next. An SSRI plus Zonegran seems like a reasonable option.
I have not had success with mood stablizers in the past though if I am to switch drugs I may be able to add in the the Zonegran during the transition and hopfully realize some benefit before starting another AD.
I am so pleased to hear how well it is working for you. This gives myself and others hope.
