Hi,

>What does AFAIK mean?

As far as I know.....

>What drug(s) should I stay away so that this doesn't happen?

If you want to avoid all dopamine antagonist drugs, stay away from metoclopramide (Reglan) and prochlorperazine (Compazine) - two widely used anti-nausea drugs.

>The reason I am concerned is b/c I am about to give birth and what if I need anesthesia?

Dopamine antagonists such as Compazine are widely used to treat/prevent post-op nausea and vomiting. Numerous alternatives are available though, you don't have to take any dopamine antagonists if you don't want to.

>I guess what I am getting at is this: is my brain suseptible to TD since I was on AP's.........

No, I don't believe it is.

>Does the brain grow new cells in replaced to what was damaged?

You don't have TD, I don't think the APs will have damaged any brain cells. Anyway, the brain can grow new cells in a process called neurogenesis.

>Is my brain chemistry changed?

No, I don't think so.

Kind regards

~Ed
