I also (unfortunately; am in my right mind now and I do not recommend) used street m-AMP on a binge basis on up to 40mg Marplan without complications (besides severe mania/ psychosis).

Very interesting. I have never thought to use Desoxyn. Thanks for the idea. I don't think I would broach the subject with my doctor until I am off of Parnate.
I hope you continue to feel better and better.
