I would imagine that the stomache burning is caused by the same mechanism which happens in the brain, as the digestive system (esp. stomache) is full of neurotransmitter receptors including norepinephrine/noradrenalin receptors, which is the main resulting culprit for causing the hypertensive crises symptoms. The stomache actually contains MANY more such receptor sites that does the brain.
Hence the Molten Lava feeling.
Provigil is a potent noradrenergic drug & so is Parnate. I took Provigil without any problems with Nardil, even in excess of 600mg/day. Just shows that, like all groups of meds, MAOIs are NOT all the same. Of course WE'RE not all the same either!
take care,
