> What exactly is this side effect? Could it explain why Im getting headaches in the sun? Is it safe to be in the sun when on TCA's? Any info would be much appreciated! Thanx

I think it has to do with TCA-induced dryness of the skin and dehydration. If you put on sunscreen (PDF 15) and drink plenty of water, and spend only a reasonable amount of time in the sun you should be OK.
