Imahotep,


You are right in much of what you have said and I don't believe there is anything in your post that could be mistaken for giving indescriminate medical advise at all.You have simply shared a story in response to Amber's question about anyone having had heard of it's use. If your doctor prescribed Geodon for you I would doubt very much that he prescribed them for any other reason other than he hoped you maybe one of those who did benefit from it. There is documented and anecdotal evidence that some people do well on them and in my opinion we may just well refuse a medication or treatment that may just be the answer for us due to fear.
These drugs are used quite commonly in the treatment of RSD, maybe not Geodon so often but certainly many other similar antipsychotics and where you had intolerable side effects, many others don't.
I have had some shocking side effects from things I have trialled, I have watched people have terrible reactions to medications but I have seen many successful outcomes and had successful outcomes myself ----It is all about what each of us thinks is a considered risk to take in the search for a better quality of life.
Cheers
Tayla
