Linkadge,
So odd isn't it? I know with a good deal of certainty that it wasn't food (tyramine) induced, because I even tried fasting one day.
Did you ever do a trial of Nardil? If so, did it have the same effect on your BP? I really think that the likelihood is much less with phenelzine, but this is just a hunch.
The sad thing is, I found Parnate to be so much more tolerable than the SSRI's in terms of side-effects, other than the obvious blood-pressure thing. Seriously, that baby was almost devoid of side-effects!
I'm still so curious about Nardil, but I'm doing so well right now that it probably wouldn't be worth it at this juncture. It's nice to know there might be something there that may work if I ever get out of control depressed again. I am in full remission right now.
Best,
Matt
