| I have been away but just scanned my cfs group email. I noticed a med called
milnaciprin but haven't read any details about it. I have about one hundred
emails
to open so it might be there but wondered if anyone had any info on it. I see
a psychopharmacologist who is always willing to try new things but I don't
want
to sound like an idiot when I call him. My prayers to all on this board--no
one
realizes how much courage it takes to have a chronic illness.

| Neither I or my pschopharm can find any info on it. I went to a couple
websites--
it was mentioned but it's not on Medline or Medscape. Has anyone tried it?
I put in a call to Mass college of Pharmacy--they have an info line. My
pharmacist
says he's never filled a scrip for it.

| This is where you can buy it. It was discussed through this group about a
month ago. Tempted to try it.
