I had to ask my doctor for something. I knew to do this from having read this site a lot. He prescribed Cartia, I believe, but don't quote me. It was something that drops your blood pressure really fast. I never needed to use it. Ask for everything and anything you feel the need to. If I had remained on nardil I would have gotten a bracelet that said I was on it.
This just might be a wonder drug for you, so you owe it to yourself to try.
