My new combo.

Posted by Conundrum on April 15, 2011, at 14:47:10

I am now on a combo of pristiq + mirapex w/ my new pdoc, to treat anhedonia. It was going to be Cymbalta + Mirapex, but I found Cymbalta further blunted my feelings while still allowing plenty moments of dysphoria. Pristiq is somewhat mood brightening. So far the Mirapex has mainly made me tired and given me a weird spasm-y feeling between my eyes some days. Last night I wasn't sure if I took the pill or not, so I may have taken 2, I'm so tired right now.

Conundrum, good luck :)

Pristiq really was pretty transparent. I think it did more than I credited it. I hope this is a good mix for you.

Thanks, I notice a tiny difference w/ pristiq, and not much on the negative side. Mirapex makes me very tired though. Hopefully that wears off and something good starts to happen. In better news, my mother is starting to feel better on Nardil, on just 2 pills a day. Only time will tell if its a keeper.

I've heard that about mirapex and fatigue.

It was short-listed for me once.

Very good about your mum. Hope it holds.

For you too. Keep us posted.
