> Anyway I know you are thinking of trying rTMS from your previous threads, are you going to participate in a trial of rTMS if this Cymbalta doesnt't work out?
Hi Denise.
Hmm.
That's a tough question.
I was thinking about trying mifepristone, otherwise known as RU-486. You take it for a week, then feel better, then stop taking it, and stay feeling better. It is supposed to reset the HPA axis. Really weird. My guess is that some people will need to have maintenance treatments every so often. It has been reported successful in psychotic depression and is being studied for bipolar depression at the NIMH, NIH.
Columbia University in NYC had been doing research into rTMS. I contacted the research director. She was interested in me, but I wanted to try Cymbalta first. You've got me thinking, though. Maybe I should try that next. Maybe I won't need to. Wouldn't that be cool?
So, what's going on with you?
