Hi Creepy,
Thanks :) I'm going to try Lyrica. And I think your point about under-treated depression is really good. I still think I want to try a maoi. Asap, I want to be on Emsam. And hopefully Lyrica will help (pain can get triggered when I experience emotional spikes as well.) If this fails, I'll try the tca's.
(My pdoc doesn't like to use maois. It was a verbal wrestling match to get his agreement. I sure hope I get some relief--and I can start using the behaviors that will help me feel better! Like leaving the house... :)
Thanks.

> If you are after pain relief, Id look into desipramine. MAOIs already push GABA a bit.
> Although, if you have fibro pain it may be coming from under-treated depression and treating the depression may resolve the pain.
> Im on wellbutrin / zoloft and thats helped my pain. Seems that mine came from depression itself =(
