Oh sweetie, I'm sorry. Do they have any idea what is causing it? That must be scary as well as frustrating.

I'm so sorry to hear that. It's so good that you are seeing your pdoc tomorrow. I don't know (or maybe remember) what medications you are taking, but, as you know, all the atypical antipsychotics can do that, but, more rarely, the SSRI's can cause movement disorders also- because they all cause a relative drop in dopamine while they are boosting serotonin. It would be time for a rigorous review of your medications- if you are taking one of the two classes of them I mentioned, you should be able to reverse the movement disorder by discontinuing. Please let us know what happens- will be thinking of you.

I hope your pdoc can help. That sounds like it is no fun at all.
I didn't notice a thing, by the way, you seem like the same person inside. Now they just have to get the outside to match.

jyl..hang in, hang tight and lock on the target. You give love when you feel love...and even loved...and depression is that great, big, gaping hole in love, where people on each side can't see, hear, and even don't want to try to. And..that is perfectly well.
I have a question about your meds...and I was wondering what your doctor is prescribing for the alcohol? Your nervous system is steaming ahead on the a.d.'s....and you really need that balance for peace and quiet.
Anyhoooowww...take care,
'Tis important
Peace time and time, over and again,
Jay
