> Tom... curious are still on nardil?
No, I haven't taken Nardil since I received what may have been a bad batch of the medication from my pharmacy back in June 2006. As I said in another recent thread, I didn't see the point in taking Nardil if it was going to be both completely ineffective and highly intolerable some of the time. I suppose the Gavis phenelzine might be worth trying, since there at least haven't been any reports of bad batches that I know of with that version of phenelzine, but my illness has really changed its course since I started experiencing psychotic symptoms and cognitive problems back in February 2007. I'm still keeping the Gavis phenelzine in mind as something that I might possibly try if all else fails (and if my psychiatrist agrees to prescribe it for me), but for now, I'm doing reasonably well on the vitamin D3 that I'm taking. The vitamin has been helping significantly with my energy, concentration, and hypersomnia since I started taking it about a week ago. So, although I haven't completely ruled out giving the Gavis phenelzine a try at some point, I'm somewhat hesitant to try it because I don't know how it would affect me with my psychosis and perhaps more importantly, because I'm responding to something else at the moment.
