MAOI's will make you more prone to "grey-outs" but a simple "head between the legs" tuck will fix that.
I think the "carotid reflex" is dampened; but that's a layman's fancy thinking on terms unclear to him.
Once steady-state on MAOI's, the effects are consistent; and though I have no experience with Vasalva-like maneuvers while on MAOI's, I think they'd be okay once you learn your body's reaction to them.
In my experience, Nardil had more of a effect on BP than Parnate; I switched to Parnate after quite a few years because of the anorgasmia. Wish I had taken it sooner...
