Hi! I'm new to this board as a poster, I have been reading it for a few weeks now.
My pdoc has me on Topamax 300 mgs a day, Prozac weekly 180 mgs on Sunday w/a 90 mg booster on Wednesday. and I was on Geodon up until yesterday at 80 mgs twice daily until I had an experience I DON'T want to relive!!! My tongue swelled or did something very strange and I couldn't talk at all. I had to call my husband home from work, had my children (after they realized I wasn't playing a game) and sister frantic of course I was in tears. ER visits are not fun...I won't go into detail but after 2.5 hours and being agoraphobic w/severe panic we walked out! So, today my pdoc gave me the option of going back on the geodon with some "side effect" medication which I graciously turned down or trying something else. So, he prescribed me Seroquel. I'm really nervous about taking it. He's starting me taking (25 mg tablets) 1 tablet 2 times a day for 3 days, then continue with 2 tablets 2 times a day thereafter.
Thank you for any and all help!!Kamikazi Ladybug.
