> You said you took Nardil for two years. Would you mind telling us/me why you stopped it and what you switched to and what that experience was like? If my liver enzymes keep rising and reach a life-threatening point, there is a possibility I will have to go off Nardil.
>I stopped it because I developed a disturbing body rash and my pdoc told me to stop immediately.
I had always had one kind of rash as a side effect (flushing, sometimes with itch, usually on face or neck). This rash was intermittant.
However, I suddenly got tiny bumps, some of them petichial (sp?)(like, tiny spots of blood), that started on my trunk and then spread over time. They didn't itch or hurt. My pdoc freaked out.
I tried to restart and the rash returned.
Since then, I have been rediagnosed as Bipolar II and I'm now titrating up on Lamictal.
