In reply to TRD/PARNATE LETHARGY HELP!!!! SCOTT + D/R, posted by JadeKelly on December 18, 2008, at 18:23:36
> Hi Scott, Hi d/r,

> I'm at 10 weeks of Parnate, 3 days at 60mg. Whole post is above to Jeff. My immediate problem is My PDoc (the only one I've had) is unwilling to add anything to Parnate. So here I am completely lethargic, I mean can hardly get out of bed kind, and I have to go back to work, my life, etc. He's not gonna budge, so new PDoc. How does everyone find Pdocs that are current enough to prescribe things like Ritalin w/MAOI? Or Nortriptyline?

> Anybody consult with more liberal docs by phone? I can't believe he's left me in this position. Sucks. ANY advise/help most appreciated. I'm in Maryland, btw, 45 minutes from NIH. Scott?

> Thanks for any help with this-JadeWell, mine said i haven't tried enough things yet for a drastic treatemtn like tca+maoi or stim+maoi.

Go buy some creatine, i think it might help with MAOI induced fatigue independent of hypotension. Also, acetyl l carnitine might help, although i don't think MAOIs create a unique need for it so it'll have hte same effect as if you weren't on one. But it helps some fatigue conditions.
