Hi Ed! Miss you. How's the studying going? Hope it's almost over and test time is near. Jeroen I agree with what Ed says, tell the pdoc that you felt great on low doses of seroquel. Why waste time if the zyprexa isn't helping you? Fondly, Phillipa

Ed, I'm so sorry. But you can do it. If your concentration is as bad as you indicated in another Thread, don't feel bad. I had to read all my texts 3 times to get the knowledge I needed to ace my tests. That with the complete notes I took in class. I was a book aholic. After nursing school I couldn't read for a year. And that's the truth. Love PJ XXXXXX

Hi J!
>but its high sedation!!!!
Have you ever tried Provigil? It might help with the sedation.
Kind regards,
Ed.

hey ed, just got home from another week of therapy
im on zyprexa 20 mg for 4 days now, my doc increased it
im also on TRANXENE 15 mg twice a daythe blinking is less but not gone...
i need your advice that i want to start taking lethicin 7500 mg and 15000 mg the second week, i purchased the gel capsules, each capsule contains 1200 mg of lecithin
is it safe to take letchin with zyprexa 20 mg, tranxene 15 mg
because the eye muscle cramp is less, maybe lethicin will make it worse?
my psy doc doesnt beleive in it, he only sais vitamine E works and tranxeneso is it safe? i really need your help on this...
cant discuss a normal conversation with my doctor,

Hi J!
>the blinking is less but not gone...
That's great :-)
>is it safe to take letchin with zyprexa 20 mg, tranxene 15 mg
I think so. You really need to ask Larry Hoover though! He's knows all about supplements :-)
>because the eye muscle cramp is less, maybe lethicin will make it worse?.....
I don't think it would.
Kind regards,
Ed.

i really am thinking bout the seroquel, i felt very good on it on 75 mg and took it once at night, i dont want 400 mg it will turn me into a zombie but on the other hand might repress my TD
should i go as high as 30 mg zyprexa for the blinking to go away?
i dont feel good on zyprexa then on the seroquel

........but you might not need as much as 400mg!
>should i go as high as 30 mg zyprexa for the blinking to go away?
No, I wouldn't recommend it. If 20mg doesn't work well I think it would be better to return to Seroquel :-)

It might not do if you worked your way up gradually. Anyway, your blinking might be improved on a much lower dose :-)
Yours,
Ed.

Hi Jeroen, Glad to hear the blinking is better. I don't think the lecithin will make it worse either but Larry is the one to ask. And as always listen to Ed. Fondly, Phillipa

Sorry to interrupt, but I'd like to redirect follow-ups regarding lethicin to Psycho-Babble Alternative. Here's a link:

Hi J,
You are not out of options :-) I think you will be ok if you take the Seroquel twice daily. Now you are on Tranxene, you will have less anxiety :-)
Kind regards,
Ed.

Well, I suppose you will at least have given it a full trial. Let me know how it goes :-)

Hi J,
I really think it's time to switch to Seroquel. Perhaps you could discuss it with your doctor next week :-)
Kind regards,
Ed.
