I took 50mg of Seroquel last night, got a lot more sleep, but woke up rather sedated. My rapid thoughts were somewhat slowed down, but everything else was still there.
Come noon, I'm amped back up though.

I have some concerns about staying on 20mg of Abilify while the Seroquel is increased again to 100, then 200, then 300mg because of the sedation.
I run out of Abilify Monday... And was never told to stop it, or taper off.

I tried Seroquel in the past and had a bout of syncope at 150mg, but had been drinking VERY heavily at the time. Pdoc knows this. Thinks it's worth a re-trial. I think I'm going to try 150mg before the 200mg.
I do have a lifeline because of the MS. That makes me feel a little safer.

Don't know if the combo of such a high dose of Abilify and doubling doses of Seroquol daily is going to be too much for me at least in the am.

Jeez, I wish I was together enough to think of all this before the weekend.

She'll be in the office Tuesday, and I can call in Monday if I need to. I won't have to decide 150 vs. 200mg until Sunday night.

Ugh. This has been going on for a month and a half. Enough already!
