A few months ago I asked about stuttering that had started when I tried to taper off Paxil and never went away when I returned to the regular dose.
Well...I don't stutter so much any more...rather, I have times where I have much involuntary movement of my arms, hands, legs, face, and my back sometimes too. This started about two weeks ago, starting with my hands. Then my face. Then my legs. Now everything.
I had a CAT scan which came up normal. I *finally* got in to see a neurologist...he says he honestly has no idea what's wrong. So he ordered seventy thousand billion tests.
Anyway...I was wondering if anyone here knew of any research into Paxil that may illuminate this (as it started with Paxil withdrawal)...or perhaps a link between Haldol taken 9 years ago starting something that Paxil withdrawal triggered?
One psych suggested tardive dyskinesia...
So...help?
