Sandy,
I don't have any experience with dexedrine. From what I've read, Declan seems to have a good handle of it's anti-suppressant effect.My work outs are limited. I'm in the process of deciding to whether to have surgery that will allow me to return to a refreshing work out. I'm just not one that likes the idea of being sliced and diced.

Now that a bunch of weight came off due to the Topamax (which I could continue to afford it!), I want to start working those poor neglected muscles again. It doesn't take as much effort to lift your legs up and down when they don't weigh as much!! *big smile*

> I live in Canada, and the Topamax is an "exception status" med. It can be authorized by the provincial med plan for off-label use if the doc can persuade them that I need it for something other than epilepsy. Well, he tried twice...and I was denied twice.

> We don't have Zonegran here in Canada, and Meridia is listed as having "no benefit" (so it's not covered by any drug plan...meaning $$$).
>
> What about Dexedrine? That's a med that is covered for ADHD, but it's not "exception status"...so I guess the doc could write a script for it. But....isn't that a bit strong of a med for binge eating from the Remeron?? I don't know.

> I'm glad your able to continue with your gym workouts!! I'm hoping, someday, to get back out there in the world again! I've only been impacted upon by my social anxiety since 3 years ago, and it's only been 2 years that I've had on-again/off-again agoraphobia. But one day, baby....make way as I scurry down the sidewalks with my walker and orthopedic shoes! LOL!!!
