Hugs hugs hugs Phillipa! I so look forward to your posts and appreciate you as a friend even though I've never met you. I wish I knew some great drug or some magical way out of the hell.
I could only think of one possibile strategy. That is, no matter what you take for a new drug, start it at miniscule doses. When we can't tolerate side effects in the early going, we potentially miss out on a drug that might have been beneficial. We all know that most of those early side effects will diminish or disappear in a couple weeks. (as I'm hoping my cymbalta ones will, fingers crossed) The trick is to get that far. If it means taking miniscule doses, so be it.
I actually do have a drug in mind that I think would help you, that you could tolerate,that you could take in miniscule doses to test, and that works in days instead of weeks. You would probably friek out if I told you what it was. So I'll save it unless you are curious.
Hey, babblemail me anytime.
