new symptoms...is it the Nardil?

Posted by gardenergirl on July 4, 2004, at 11:02:14

Hello,
I am on 60 mg of Nardil and have been for several months. If I'm not on 60, I take 45 mg. My usual side effect profile includes hyperreflexia, mild urinary retention, and occasional insomnia. I have had the following side effects, but they have since gone away: anorgasmia, constipation, myoclonic jerks, and "nardil shuffle" (only lasted 2-3 days).

Lately, I have had a few incidents when I get out of my car. I start to walk and notice two things: my ears feel clogged and are ringing slightly, and my legs feel heavy and weak. I do not feel like I am going to pass out...no narrowing of vision or lightheadedness. I do feel as if I can't keep walking if the symptoms keep up, as I feel too weak in the legs. And the ear thing is quite odd.

This has only happened after driving, but in 3 different cars (long story...car was totalled). Hmmm, as I write that, maybe it didn't start until after the wreck, where I did hit my left temple on the window, but was essentially unhurt.

Anyway, I've never had orthostatic hypotension to the best of my knowledge. Is this what that feels like? Any thoughts on what might be going on? Is it the Nardil?

Thanks in advance...
