"...ADs that have norepinephrine reuptake inhibition (not norepinephrine stimulation/release) are good choices for that, as they supply the needed boost in NE, but at the same time create a feedback loop situation that helps over months to get the adrenal system back in balance. From personal experience the best med I've tried for that was Milnacipran, second best Cymbalta."
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT INFORMATIION! I didn't know that and was avoiding Milnacipran and any other NRI because of my adrenal fatigue. Do you know whether adding atenolol to keep my heart rate under control would negate that adrenal feedback loop? (I don't wish to hijack this thread so if you think this is off-topic, then I can post in a separate thread.)
