In reply to chad its good to hear from you:), posted by ross on August 31, 2002, at 7:16:03

Ross -

I'm doing good - I have had a loooong interruption from my previous routine - and I'm hoping that soon most of these problems will be behind me. After my diagnosis 2 weeks ago I have started approaching my old regimen again - probably will be a little different this time though ... will see how things go ...

> i knew you where rick. how are you? the Nardil is working fine. better than anything in the past. as far as social phobia its ok. i have devolped a tic in my right arm.

Who diagnosed it? Did he/she tell you how you got it? You never had tics before did you?

if it gets worse i will scrap the zyprexa.

Only comment here is that Zyprexa might very well be "masking" part of the movements. If you stop zyprexa, taper off it slowly BTW, and of course talk about it with Mr/Ms Dr - (might want 2nd opinion if they seem deceptive).

which im taking for of course anxiety. its the new psychiatry. give em A/P's to lessen their anxiety.

Yes. Big money in Zyprexa right now - and I guess the Dr's have the OK in safety go-ahead for most any use at the present time...

i see my pdoc in about 20 days and will get some sh*t staight. thanks for your support though.
> how where you on 90 mgs of Nardil?

Once at high dose (for me also was 90 relatively high for most) - it took 4 months for 80% of sexual side effects to go away - efficacy maintained. I was left with sexual side effects roughly equal to when I tried 20 Celexa, 150 Effexor, and 50 Zoloft - and none of those helped my condition much - wheareas 90 Nardil was awesome.

Have you been at 90 for several months. You sound so good right now Ross. I hope you stay with it - and consider swapping out Zyprexa for Klonopin (which has a long half life like Zyprexa)... or at least to stay off all a/p's unless they really help you as other treatment doesn't. But I would bet that the Nardil is what is really working for you - not Zyprexa...

And on sexual side effects. I hope you will be patient - and enjoy feeling good - and probably the sexual side effects will greatly diminish. You will never be trapped and there are alternatives but give it some time and glad to hear you are feeling better ! (save the current side effect)...

Sincerely,

Chad (rick/kregpark/actionjackson,etc etc).

the only thing im complaining about is anorgasmia.
who dosent on Nardil?
your web page is still great. good info!!
