Parnate Stopped Working...HELP

Posted by Elizabeth Munson on August 15, 2011, at 17:14:01

HI, I have been on Parnate at 60mg/ for the last 5 years with excellent results. No other med. has worked for me except Nardil which caused massive weight gain.
I saw a new p-doc in May who gave me one of the old and powerful,anti-psychotics (forget name) and reduced my clonazapam from 3 mg. to 1.5.
I had a horrible reaction to the anti-psychotic which lasted three days. I thought I would jump out of my skin. My husband had to hold me as hard as he could as I was trembling so much. I ran out of the clono. and when I called this p-doc I got his answer phone every time. I left frantic calls for more clono. to get some relief as I had been up for 3 days, but he did not respond.
Finally I went to my GP who gave me the clononazapam and I finally slept after 3 days of pure hell.
I went back on my 60 mg of parnate as I had always taken and found it no longer worked at all. It was if I was taking sugar pills. All summer long I continued to take 60mg of parnate, as I had always done, in the hope it would eventually kick in. It has not even after three months. I have been and still am so depressed and anxious all I think of is death and dying.
Is there anything, does anyone know, that might augment this parnate block and get it working again?
I am allergic to all anti-psychotics ending up in emergency, when I took geodon last year, with Neuroleptic Malignancy Syndrome. I almost died and was delirious for three days. I was told at that time by the Head of Psychiatry who treated me at this large, city hospital never to take anti-psychotics again. Still this new p-doc gives me anti-psychotics. And always with disastrous results. What to do to get parnate working again.....lila in pain............
