I haven't sought a second opinion, or even thought about it. My current doc has a reputation for being much more progressive and open-minded than other psychiatrists in the area, and he spends actual time with his patients. My first appointment alone lasted over two hours.
He didn't really elaborate on the difficulties with combining Emsam and a stimulant/Xyrem, but again, I'm one of only two patients he has on Emsam, so he may not be entirely familiar with the true interactions.
I see my doc this Friday, so I will be sure to mention that others have successfully combined Emsam and a stimulant. Is anyone aware of the theoretical problem with Emsam and Xyrem, or has anyone successfully combined the two?
Continued thanks for your time and support...
