LOL No friggin' way!:-)
But seriously, at this point, the Parnate seems to be doing its job. It's just that my doctor is playing it very conservatively with our titration of desipramine. I am still significantly underdosed, so I am having a difficult time with things.
Thanks for asking Bulldog.
Obviously, I have nothing against SSRIs unless they have something against me (tolerability issues). I have been lucky that they all were tolerable, just not effective.
