Hi FB:
I just realized I hadn't answered your post. I'm sorry!. As I come off the Parnate I sink deeper into depression and everything is getting difficult to do. I have to prioritize and haven't gotten onto PB much.No, I've never heard of anyone else EVER having immune system reactions to Parnate like I have...twice!! I've really examined whether I'm crazy or not, and I think I'm not! But for some unknown reason that's how my body reacts. The rheumatoid arthritis has been especially severe. And I still do have some itching, dizziness and chills as well even though I am now down to 10mg a day Parnate.
I'm thinking of maybe trying Emsam next since it wouldn't go through my liver, but I wonder if even a 12mg patch would be enough. ??
I thought Rick's idea of writing Dr Ivan Goldberg to see if he's ever seen this kind of reaction was excellent and I intend to do that....It just feels too hard right now.
Thanks for asking!
Hugs,
Gayle
