pdoc update

[carlyinrome]

I gained a pound a week for the two months I was on the Vraylar, so of course the pdoc took me off it. He put me on a new drug, an older tricyclic antidepressant. We'll try that for six weeks, and then I'll go back to discuss how I'm doing. We talked briefly about ECT; he's still all for it, but understands my (and my family's) reservations, and said I might consider the magnet treatment, though he says it's less likely to be effective. (But the risks are less. See how that works? Ugh.)

Still taking prompts. Drop them here or wherever.

I feel like shit.

what is the older tricyclic? my older tricyclic (desipramine) made my life 2000% better.

That's it! I am now full of hope.
