You haven't been around much lately. Hope you've been studying hard!
I really didn't like the racing heart. I was very uncomfortable and I was always aware of it. It made sleeping very difficult as well. I had the same response to desipramine though I was on it for a much shorter time frame than the nort. I may try desipramine again as it's one of the few meds that could also help my ADD and one of the few that rEEG said might help me.
