Hungry and Salivating

Posted by pretty_paints on August 6, 2005, at 10:18:21

Like a dog.

I am hungry and drooling everywhere. Ha ha. Silly Clozapine. I have put on weight already, on my chest (good) and my stomach (not so good). I can't believe how hungry I am!

Anyway just thought I'd give you that little update. I feel calmer, but other than that, not much has changed.

Lots of love, Kate xxx

Hi Katie!!!

What dose of clozapine are you on now?

>drooling everywhere........

While you're asleep?

>I am hungry.....

It's a bit like Zyprexa in that department :-(

>I can't believe how hungry I am!

I'm sure you're still very slim - you were on the last pic you sent me!

>.....on my chest (good) and my stomach (not so good)......

Good things come at a price :-(

>I feel calmer...

:-)

Lots of love

Ed xxxx

PS. Get a mobile phone so I can send you text messages - hospital is so boring, it would be fun to text you.

Hi Katie!

What other meds are you taking at the moment? Are you still taking venlafaxine and mirtazapine? What doses are you on?

Love Ed xxx

Hi Ed,

I'm on 150mg I think, of Clozapine.

I'm on 150mg Efexor and 30mg Mirtazapine.

How are you getting on? Exam stress? I really feel for you :(

I came home today and sunbathed for a bit, it was nice. Just watched Extras (the Ricky Gervais thing), have you been watching it Ed?

Hi Katie!

>I'm on 150mg I think, of Clozapine.

Not long till you'll be on 300mg! Then you can go HOME :-)

>I'm on 150mg Efexor and 30mg Mirtazapine.

Do you think you still need the Efexor?

>How are you getting on? Exam stress?

Mmmmm. I don't even know whether I'm gonna do the exams. I like working in the pharmacy but I don't like university. I keep thinking of getting a job.

>Just watched Extras (the Ricky Gervais thing), have you been watching it Ed?

I've never seen it! :-(

Love Ed xxx
