-----------------------------------------
you might give that a try in place of the seroquel you're taking (probably wouldn't make sense to use both). sounds like a decent idea -- abilify is some sort of mixed agonist/antagonist that theoretically behaves roughly in the way your doc described. haven't tried it myself....

what happened with the fentanyl (sp?) patch you were wearing? have you dropped that? just curious......
