> I was busy working for a couple of days that's all. Thanks for noticing and asking! I'm trying the selegiline with DLPA now. The asthma-like problems have made me afraid to take any medication for fear of aggrivating the situation. Once I give this an adequate trial and if it doesn't work out, then I think I'll try the Parnate.

The Anafranil has not been too bad, just a bit more dizziness when I stand up and some dry mouth. I am at 50 mg now, and was thinking of going up to 75 mg. I think I will wait a week before increasing my dose. I always find that I feel worse when I am PMSing (sorry to be so personal), hence the decision to wait before increasing the dose. Plus, I want to try the NADH and the DMG as augmenters.
As for the DMAE, I think it is a lost cause. I found the revised Food and Drugs Act schedules and DMAE is definately listed, so I guess I am SOL. I am going to see if any of my friends or even my dad will be going to the States soon and see if someone can pick some up for me. At least I got the NADH, so that's a start.
I hope you find something to help you with the asthma problems you are having. I have had to see a lung specialist in the past because of a spot on my lung which was apparently from a lung disease - histoplasmosis - I had had (not sure when I ever had that). Recently I had to go back to him because my gp noticed wheezing when I had my physical. I wasn't worried about the wheezing since I always seem to wheeze about 1 to 2 weeks before my cycle (can't figure that one out).
Take good care of yourself. And, good luck with the DLPA and selegiline.
Tamara
