Hi GG..
I'd honestly say from your symptoms...try a few things. First, you might want to improve the quality of your sleep. I know this sounds silly because you are sleepy all the time, but once you get a deep 7-8 hours sleep, you will feel refreshed. So, maybe try adding a benzo or a benzo-type sleep med. (Anything from Ambien to Restoril.) You could also try the great all-around Klonopin. I don't know what else is permitted with an MAOI.
For your rash, a couple of things. One, take a good oral long-lasting anti-histamine..maybe talk to your pharmacist about this? Also, apply cortisone cream 24/7. Also, loperamide (generic name) is a great antidiarrheal.
Most of all..it sounds like you should make a trip to your doctor. Sometimes just a slight change in the meds will make things 100 percent better.
Good luck...
Best,
Jay
