Thanks escapee. My pdoc agrees with me that I'm extremely med sensitive for some reason. My wife is a tiny 5'0" 100 lb woman who took 20mg of amitriptyline with no problems to help control her IBS. The same dose knocked me out like a tranquilizer dart. With that in mind, I'd be hard pressed to imagine doing well on any of the tertiary amine TCA's at therapeutic doses. TBH, I'm a little concerned about not being able to get up to 100mg desipramine.
I've seen a lot of folks from across the pond do well on lofepramine, so I was optimistic about my desipramine trial. I guess between mirtazapine, pregabalin and lurasidone, I forgot what a proper AD titration felt like. UGH.
