Hi dreamerz,
Interested to read what your doctor told you about Nardil.
I live in UK and have been taking Nardil since November 2002. This would suggest that your doctor is obvously giving you a biased view on this medication. Maybe due to his lack of experience of MAOI drugs, or perhaps due to a belief re your management which he hasn't chosen to share with you.He/she may even be intimidated by your apparent knowledge due this board, you may know more than he/she does about MAOI use.
Since MAOI medicaton created there has not been a time when this medication has been unavailable in the UK.It has just fluctuated in its popularity due to alternative drugs on the market which don't have the dietry restrictions etc.
Time for an exploratory chat with your doctor to find out exactly why he/she expressed what they did.
If it helps to give you confidence about my above comments, and your usage of the information as a basis to discuss the topic further with your doctor, I can tell you that I have worked in adult psychiatry in UK for 24 years.
Good luck.
