campral and naltraxone and still drinking moderately

[matthew1965]

guys,

I am noticing that everyone on campral is not drinking, I still am. should I go off naltraxone and campral and go on topomax. I am canadian and our doctors don;t like it. anyone canadian know where I can go to get it? I am drinking way lesss, 2-3 glasses a night of wine, but feeling great, abstinenace made me crazy miserable. now I feel great. also just read eat right for your blood type, I am type A, which they say red wine is hugely beneficial. funny.

I'm taking Topa AND Campral- that's a first!

I didn't mean for this to happen, but I am on Campral and drinking (sort of moderately), when I started Campral I was also weaning off of topa at the same time, but because I started drinking after 5 days on the Campral I decided to stop weaning off the topa and am now going back up and not sure what to do about the Campral! I am thinking I may stop taking it and try abs again in October.

Happy,

Does taking both drugs make you feel really fuzzy and/or tired? How does the drinking mix with drugs. I hear you can get quite a hangover with that combo?

Brunello. Red wine is hugely beneficial to all -- one glass that is! I shocked my doc when I said I drink 3 glasses. You would have thought I admitted to using crack!

What does that book say about Type O blood?. Martinis are beneficial. In my dreams, lol.

Ivy, that made me laugh about telling your doctor. My OB asked me and I said I had a couple of glasses of wine a night with dinner (total lie. if she knew the real truth she would have had me commited right then and there) and then gave me a big lecture on how I should not be doing it every night. I kept thinking, "geez if I were truly doing only two glasses a night I would be shouting it from the rooftops." Brunello, sorry I cannot give any advice as I have not been on either of those medications. Good luck!

Campral in Canada

I was told by my doctor that Campral is not available in Canada. I am curious as to how you got it.

Thanks

it is not available in canada, but I got a doctor to write a script and faxed it to canadian pharmacy, camh, is thinking of supplying it, more people have to request it. yes, you can get a hangover fro the combo but only after a bottle of wine or so. no side effects whatsoever, just think topa would be better because I have no interest in abstinenece. been there done that, was brutal , not for me.

Canadian doctor and topa

Hi Brunello
I think we may have spoken before so pardon my ignorance/bad memory if we have, but where in Canada are you? I have found a doctor in Canada who prescribed me topa...but its in Markham and I have heard she is not accepting new patients (as regular patients...) - not sure how it would work in a walk-in situation...I know that topa is available in canada for migraines...that is how I got mine....(whatever it takes)
Hugs

did you tell her you had migraines. My doctor knows I am on antidepressants so that is a pain in the ass.

I can't imagine Campral is going to work for me, but I am on day 3 of it nonetheless. I have used Topa to successfully abstain for a few months in the past. The doc who prescribed it insisted it could not have been responsible for my lack of interest in alcohol, but I know it helped me tremendously. The problem with it was I lost my interest in, well, everything while on it and I was in a fog all the time. I had 2 starter packs of Campral on hand so I'm trying those now, but still drinking. That Dr. I saw is not an option for me now, so I don't know what I'll do when my samples run out...

I can only tell you that I became so depressed on the Topa I had to get off of it.

Hi. I started on Campral a week ago and got it here in Canada.
