Hey John,

> I mentioned the fist clenching to my pdoc and he did not think it was zyprexa.

So did he tell you what the cause was if it wasn't zyprexa?

>He did do some arm movement tests which seem to be going after that cogwheeling stuff mentioned.

I guess he was looking for "cogwheel rigidity". You see it in patients with parkinson's (lack of dopamine) and people on neuroleptics like zyprexa (blockade of dopamine).

>so I'm not too concerned, and neither was
my pdoc.

I am glad you pdoc feels your are well. If this continues though over several weeks, I would not ignore it ....

Spike
