I would prefer to just have the rTMS, plus Cytomel, vitamin B's and fish oil. But, this works for only about a month, and then I find that i do need some kind of AD. I am hopeful that when my pdoc starts offering rTMS, that I'll be able to have regular maintenance treatments with him-probably just one or two treatments would be all I would need. I know I'll feel a lot better having them regularly (once every one or two months). Neither one of us knows, but it might help me eventually not need them so often, or I might just go on needing them! The hard part for me is trying to get off work and fly down to Atlanta every month or two. I did it when I really felt that I had to, but when things started to get better, i began to feel like I had more options- if I can get it at home. it will be wonderful.
Just wondering- since rTMS can do such good things for one's brain, wouldn't it be worth considering, along with AD's, even if you didn't have a robust clinical response? It might be helping in the long run.
