How do drugs that increase norepinephrine levels affect you? I react very poorly to them. And I suspect that HPA overactivity has a lot to do with my depression and anxiety. I hope to try Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) in the next few months. It appears that this reduces noreprinephrine levels and can calm down the HPA axis considerably.
SGB is used at dozens of pain clinics around the country. I'm going to try to find one that is willing to let me try it off-label. If I can't find one that will do this, there's a doctor in Chicago who specializes in SGB.
