Courtney,
hun youre going through startup/titration...remember we talked about this? Maois are not fun to start and titrate up to an effective dose...thought I had ya smilin and ready to rock Marplan :0( aw it's ok. um ok...you are med sensitive for sure, you mentioned that already (understanding how you react to meds is a great thing...means treatment is easier to find and get through...ya know, you already know you react poorly to side effects. this is nothing new)...but ya maois are intense to titrate.
I feel for ya, nardil was pretty heavy at times in terms of sides. i didnt get the nausea, see thats a deal breaker for me.
the next call is yours Courtney (well they are all anyway)...i mean if you want to stay on marplan or not. it has not even been a week yet though...I know that lil guy on your shoulder is tellin ya to push on through. If you truely feel you have an alternative plan then more power to you Courtney. But you will be ok, this isnt the death of you hun lol dont worry, i know it sucks at the moment...the tummy is my center, if its hungry or upset im useless...thats why i like tummy rubs :-)
keep me posted with your decision, ya gonna be ok. you can always lower the dose and move slower
*hugs
