Hey Mitch
Well, I am thrilled to say I dropped the ami to 20 mgs and upped the neurontin to 400 and no scalp pain! Whew!I just can't take too much TCA. I get into to these arguements where I am sure I am right and I get into a rage if I don't get understood. And I am told later, that I was being understood. I was just so hot headed, I able to hear reason! Thank god going down on the TCA made me much cooler today, but I am also dragging. I guess I can't have the energy boost without the rage. Oh well. Rage is the pits!
Your office does *not* sound like a barrel of laughs. Does anyone there have a sense of humor? That must be a challenging place to work. It's admirable you can get yourself there everyday. I guess you will jsut have to count the days until the "giggly-fun hypomania"! I loved your "canoe" discription.
Hey, do you think a different TCA would cause less rage and a pressured feeling? You mentioned how doxepin did little for you at high doses. Does doxepin have a reputation for being less "potent" in the AD department? So I could use a higher dose to help pain, but get less AD agitation? Any thoughts?
Well hang in there. I am glad you got the depakote for now. Seems like a necessary element for this volatile season, spring!
