I wish that you could see my pdoc. :( She would be more aggressive in treating your TRD. I also know that I have read at least 2 journal articles about protocols for TRD that include some of the things that you mentioned. Do you have access to medline or something like that to look for articles? If I can figure out what I read, I'll let you know. Or someone else here might know. Perhaps bringing in the article to discuss w/ your pdoc would be helpful. Some back-up for what you want to do.
BTW, I have also tried a stimulant (dexedrine) in my mix. It helped, but not completely. I currently take: lexapro, neurontin, desipramine, dexedrine, ambien, and lithium. They all have helped some, so we have hesitated to drop something. If the Li keeps helping though, we'll drop something.
Good luck in your search.
Best,
EE
