> After it was over, she got up and was moving fast through the crowd to get to a friend. She said it felt like a hammer tapped her in the middle of her forehead. It wasn't terribly painful, but the sensation of pressure spread on both sides of it, covering her forehead. Here are her additional symptoms:
> - pressure in forehead continues
> - shaky hands and involuntary head movement, almost jerky
> - vision is 'shaky' - 'blurry' - 'wavy'
> - unstable gait - felt like she couldn't walk
> - a sensation of heat that started at her collar bone and spread up her neck to over her cheekbones

That doesn't sound like lithium to me.What about EPS dystonia caused by the Saphris? This occurs more often in young people, and begins a few days after beginning treatment.
