In reply to Seroquel sore tongue?, posted by kodi on January 16, 2006, at 18:27:21

>I haven't heard of that one, but has your psychiatrist done an AIMS exam (just a simple set of verbal instructions) to rule out TD ? That rings a bell when the tongue is involved, though I don't want to alarm you, since the chance of TD is way diminished in a drug like Seroquel. (I take it too.)
Do you take any other medications that could cause this odd abberation ? Rarely Seroquel can cause neuralgia and bruxism and mouth ulceration and all sorts of things that nearly nobody experiences but I can't find anything related to the tongue. I guess its a matter of either wait and see, since its working, or try something else. But if it is merely a noticeable but passing sensation, it's probably one of those medical mysteries that would be hard to track.
