hey! When I asked an old shrink about the blood-level tests for TCAs, she said she only did them on old and/or impaired people, or people on "tricky" drug combos, and then the tests were really just to screen for potential toxicity...the tests, it seems, aren't as good as say, lithium blood-tests, in determining adequate dosage.
