Thanks everyone for the info regarding Vicoprofen. I see my pdoc this week and I'll disuss this with her. she too was a little concerned about the acetametophen (sp?) - which I can understand. Problem with ibuprofen for me is stomach irritation - however, if it has less problems with the liver - then it may be a better choice.
Regarding oxycontin and hydrocodone - I have an almost completely different response to each - however, they both are excellent antidepressants for me and also have somewhat of a "reset button" action on my depressive episodes. I almost could take 2 tabs one day and have an antidepressant effect for a couple days.
So far, the Vicodin has been the BEST antidepressant - I don't get high or euphoric - just feel like I "should" - "normal" NOT better than good - make sense?
Anyway, my pdoc said if this has a substantial positive effect on my mood that they would work it out to possibly keep me on it and use it as an antidepressant. Apparently they've used this treatment before with TRD patients when all else fails.
And best of all....music sounds and feels good in my soul again....after 12 years in darkness....
I'll keep you all updated!
Jerry :-)
