Ive had a bad case of the flu that turned into pneumonia which im still fighting but winning slowly. Turns out alot of my symptoms are, what the dr said (think d/r actually mentioned this) is one long ongoing panic attack and really bad tension headaches which both can raise bp to hypertensive area which scared the shite out of me (i hate that damn bp machine i bought lol adds to me anxiety). worst part about this is my dr...if any of you have followed my issues with this dr before, it wont be a surprise....he said ya im not gonna treat the panic or anxiety myco...you young people today think there is a pill to fix everything....well this time you will have to learn to just meditate for those tension headaches and panic issues of yours....go home and rest. Going through flu and pneumonia without somekind of calming agent for nasty added headaches (no otc pain med would touch) and panic attacks made the entire experience a living hell...i wasnt able to get out of bed for days. i'm still struggling now but getting better. grrrrr he wasnt even willing to give me that, what is it? nifididine - that emergency pill maoi users should keep with them....said i was overreacting and its not needed for nardil as much as parnate he said. i had no energy or drive left to argue with him that day....just went home, took my last 90mg temazepam and passed out for hours and hours...felt good but when i woke up...same shite again.
actually just today got a email back from a pdoc who likes maois and uses them commonly...hes even a professor of clinical psychiatry here at the U. told me he augments safely all the time with maois and has no issue with taking nardil up to 120mg if needed. So thats a start...goodbye moronic gps. now i just have to wait out the waiting list to see him.
