Hi Everybody:
The Parnate withdrawal symptoms I was having (dizzy, chills, terrible itching, nausea, brain fog, achy joints) have never gone away! And now full blown Rheumatoid Arthritis has laid me low. I get these exacerbations on occasion, but not this bad.I think I'm allergic to Parnate. Damn.
Parnate is the only AD in 15 years that has really helped me. It gets down to a very deep place where my obsession with suicide lies. No other AD has come close. But I'm a mess and getting worse.I finally wrote an email to my pdoc tonight to tell him what's going on and see what he thinks.
I've probably been allergic to Parnate since the git-go and that's why it took me 5 miserable months to get on it. Then it was good!
It was going from 80mg down to 60mg that stirred everything up. I can't believe I'm still having such bad withdrawal symptoms after a month!There is not another AD out there that I can take, except Wellbutrin, which only helps about 60%. I wish I could take a little bit of Parnate and add Wellbutrin, but aren't those two that do not go together?
Boy am I ever bummed.
Sorry to be such a downer.
Gayle
