Well.....If there are possible side-effects, I'll have 'em, plus a few more than are unheard of!
I see a GP. I'm not about to ask him about this drug. He either won't know what it is, will be afraid of MAOI's, or think it's no good. I don't have any one else I can see. (already went to the only pdoc possible, saw a few other GP's... there are more GP's, but there's no point since he's the most liberal by far)
I'm glad EMSAM is working for you and others, but... I just read a report that was published in the Washington-Post by the CEO of Somerset. He outright admitted at a conference that EMSAM was a "dud".
It doesn't have a great reputation... probably partly because not many people have tried it, some have issues with the patch itself, and some have side effects. It probably hasn't been given a great chance one way or another, but the pharmaceutical company, surprisingly, didn't aggressively market it, which it's a big mistake when you've got all other drugs with huge ad campaigns.
