to those interested,
i am currently on my third attempt with geodon / ziprasidone in a desperate attempt to lose over 60lbs. gained while on seroquel and neurontin / gabapentin ... any insight?
with each try of geodon the following side effects evolved and needed to be remedied:
initially insomnia ( for days on end ), that i have heard eventually disipates, which i treated with an antihistamine or ambien. any insight?
then depression which i treated with wellbutrin.
and finally vertigo or dizziness ... i am currently seeking the insight of a doctor to help me over this hurdle ... perhaps an anticholinergic or benzodiazepine.
do you hope to or have you lost weight switching to ziprasidone or have you experienced the kind of side effect profile i have?
quite a cocktail i have created, huh?
thanx.
