I'm not OCD, but I exerience anxiety w/ a lot of rumination. I also take Lex and don't find it to be very helpful. So my pdoc added in a tricyclic (desipramine) and that really reduced my anxiety. She mentioned that it was what they used to use for anxiety and ocd before SSRI's came out.
I would ask your pdoc if s/he thinks that a TCA might help you.
Good luck!
