> I tried going back to Parnate once before I wasn't able to get past 10 mg without severe headaches and I had to discontinue it. Hopefully the same thing won't happen this time. I don't think I did a proper washout period either ... it certainly wasn't the full two weeks that is usually recommended.
To comment on my own post ...
I just looked up the symptoms of seretonin syndrome and that is what I felt like when I started the Parnate. My pdoc had told me that I only needed to be off the previous med for 3-4 days. Clearly that wasn't enough.
