> Delna how did the appointment go today? Love Phillipa
Thanks for asking Phillipa :)
It was OK. I was so fed up that I wasn't even going to go but my parents forced me.
I met my pdoc and he increased the Parnate to 20mg. I don't want to speak too soon but I do feel better (a bit)
I realized that he is rather ignorant when it comes to Parnate. he has been pushing it on me for years so when my mum asked how many people he had treated with it he said 7!!! Then he panicked and said 15 :) I asked him if I should just switch to Effexor high dose but he said 'no' he feels this is really the right drug for me but I must give it time.
But i still have alot to work out about the Parnate - like how much provigil I can add. He didn't know either but he said he will find out.
So all in all its been an okay day. I haven't left the house still or taken any calls but then I don't leave the house for months at a time (except when I was on Geodon and couldn't bear doing nothing). I'm just going to take it as it comes and hopefully get through this bad episodeI am so grateful to all of you guys on this board as it is this interaction with others who have been 'there' that has helped me cope. My parents haven't a clue what it feels like to be suicidal and none of my 'friends' really care.
So thanks again
with love
