Hi Folks,
so they want me to try 600mg of Seroquel for two weeks. I already feel stupid, perform badly at concentration therapy, i am moody, lethargic and i gained 7 pounds in less than a week.
I do not expect to be able to reason with the Pdoc as if it was a reasonable person.
I do not know exactly what to do, but i do want to defend myself against feeling miserable.. in the most "diplomatic" way possible.I know it makes me feel like sh*t and i dont want to "get used to feeling like sh*t", so i want to take 400mg at best. Actually just 300.
So if i come to find out they make a Seroquel blood level test, which they will... I can store some Seroquel that i dont take in the evening and take it right before the blood test.
How much should i take before the blood test to make it look like i actually took the 600mg on a daily basis? And how can i discreetly look out for when the blood test is coming?
Its a shame this kind of strategy is necessary, but right now i see no other way to fend off this stupidity of making me miserable to see "if it helps". Tell you what, it wont. Only thing that made me agitated was overdose of NAC. I was FINE on 200mg Seroquel. It makes no sense. Please help me defend myself against what i call torture for the lack of a softer word.
