John,
Thanks for the info. I wouldn't try serzone again if someone paid me. I actually tried to get on it on two different occasions also. I have tried and AP before (Geodon) and it made me too sedated. My sister has used zyprexa with good results, but gain 40+ lbs. That would be enough to put me in an even worse funk. I just switched docs and he mentioned possibly trying an MAOI. You're right, it could be a good fit. As far as the CCB's. My doc is game to try it, but it obviously hasn't gained much respect as of yet. I have read some information on people having dramatic results on verapamil and nimodipine though. I'm realy feeeling kind of lost right now as to what to do. I've tried so much and am tired of the search. I have responded best to the AED's, so that's why I have been pounding that route. I appreciate all you comments and keep me posted if you find anything that you think might relate to our common problems. Last night I was doing some searching and was surprised to see how many meds are in phase III or have an approvable status. Hopefully they can only get better.
Thanks,
Jeff
