Very good points and ideas. I have been thinking about dropping the Valdoxan for a long time now, this will happen when I get a bit better/stabile.
I still dont know if there if anything to gain by swapping from one to another TCA - Marplan is also in my thoughts. Wellbrutin is also a possibility but I dont think my pdoc will aprove this.
I am going to him in 2 weeks time and will discuss all this with him.gpznos
