Hi, Anita and Scott (and anybody else who still remembers me).
Anita: I increased my Parnate to 10mg 6 times a day and developed the apathy syndrome that some people have described in association with SSRIs. I decided to try something different, so now I'm on Remeron; I've also started taking Buprenex again and am finding it as helpful as ever, except for the side effects (nasty) and the short duration of action (roller-coaster). I'm hoping the Remeron will kick in (it's been about 3 weeks) and will work well enough that I won't need to keep taking Buprenex. If not, I will probably return to Parnate and try to switch to a longer-acting opioid.
