> I'm 27 and have had OCD for about a year now. It came late onset. Before this was just standard anxiety and depression.

> I've tried SSRI's, Anafranil, and Risperdal and Abilify. Anafranil, Risperdal, and Abilify worked but with intolerable side effects (dizziness and jaw, tongue stiffness).

> Anyone tried Zofran or heard of it? It's being studied extensively for OCD at the moment. It's an anti nausea medicine.

> The doctor said if this doesnt work we will try low dose Seroquel and then might try TMS treatments.
