all that from prozac!!!! thats sounds awful.
i'm shocked!
i really really hope you find some relief soon. just shows how scary these drugs can be. and the docs just have to put their hands up because nobody can really explain why one would react so badly to a drug.
personally i am just dying to get off everything because of all these toxic effects.
take care

> I do, however, still have some movement problems that have not gone away.....RLS that is 24/7, shaking, muscle jerks (not as bad as before though), constant blinking and mouth movements. It has been 8 years since I stopped taking Prozac...and it is not getting better. I have given up on doctors...they have no answers except it souldn't be happening!
