Dinah,
You mentioned Risperdal. Did you try it? That was one of the best meds ever for me, taking it regularly, but I started to get pretty twitchy and pdoc and I decided to discontinue it.I hadn't even heard of it being used 'as needed.' Does it help if you just take it a day or two?
BTW, sure glad you're feeling better. And, like others said, I'm glad you didn't do anything that would prevent you from having K in the future (or other similar meds).
