hey! THe other trials with mifepristone I read about used it in lieu of an antipsychotic for psychotic depression; apparently, the going theory now is that dopamine/serotonin dysregulation isn't a big part of psychotic depression, so alternative treatments will be useful...the results were apparently pretty impressive in that one (I think they used hospitalized psychiatric patients for that one). So...its entirely possible, assuming mifepristone does the trick for you, that you could ditch your current combo (btw--your combo seems kind of harsh. Have you asked your doc about maybe trying meds that are a little less hardcore?)
