Wow a real oldie!!
I like the points you make, I tried remeron for 3 months with no effect at all, and with a modest taper no withdrawal.
I did not have my cortisol levels checked during this time, only during the dexa supression test.
What I find very interesting is that xanax is also what works for me and that your symptomology may be very similar to mine.
Would you care to expand a little ( privately if you wish)
I am now 100% better, I take 80 mg propranolol , xanax 0.375 mg using the anti biotic method and 5 mg celexa, as well as a raft of self help methods.
Maybe I should have another cortisol test!
Still not quite figured out how cortisol fits in, maybe my gross levels affected a secondary change that only the xanax can reset.
Certainly they were caused by stress ( chronic pain) and eventually resulted in a condition that was primarly in my view anxiety , but didnt seem to resemble gad or panic disorder particularly.
Hope this helps , I look forward to anything further you may wish to add.Glenn
