Oh my gosh. I didn't know. I'm sorry to hear that.
Please continue to post. I am very interested to see you get better. You have a few options to choose from to augment Parnate in case you don't respond well to it. The first thing is to see how well you tolerate a dosage of Parnate between 40 - 80 mg. If this is your first time on Parnate, you might find that dizziness becomes a limiting factor to rapid dosage escalation. This seems to get better with time, though.
One step at a time.
I am currently taking:Parnate 80 mg
nortriptyline 150 mg
Lamictal 200 mg
Abilify 10 mg
lithium 300 mg
prazosin 6 mgI am responding to this treatment. If I attempt to discontinue any one of these drugs, I deteriorate. I am only partially improved, but the trend is towards recovery. The addition of prazosin has made all the difference.
Good luck.
