Saying that I disagree with me would not be out of order. No is the short answer, I am not willing to give up sex to feel better on effexor.
Although when you ask it as the quality of life question...Cataplexy is the far and away worst part of my narcolepsy. Since I have been on Effexor, I am able to fish, hunt, golf, work safely, ride a scooter, and generally live an active normal (really, really bad word) life. I can do things I haven't done in fifteen years. Things I miss.
I have started a new business in the last two months. My quality of life is outwardly the best it has been in the last fifteen years.
A very large portion of which has to do with my lady friend. Without her most of the things I listed wouldn't mean much, if anything. She is understanding and kind about this beyond all reason. She likes the life we have...except lack of sex is making us both crazy.
So I am looking for an alternative modality. How much am I willing to give up??? I don't know. That is the 64 dollar question at our house right now.
