I'm not really complaining. This is one of the least of my problems and for the main part they aren't especially common.

I take seroquel to help get to sleep and there seems a high correlation between the visual/ olfactory hallucinations and dosage of this drug. A family member took it for arteriosclerotic cerebrovascular disease and had the same problem with it. My psychiatrist keeps wanting me to up the dosage and I keep trying to use as little as possible. Increasing the depakote seemed to take care of most of the immediate problem.

It's been 10 1/2 years that I've had it but I had it partly under control until 2004. I suffered another injury (partly the result of RSD) and it started getting worse again. It seems like it always "wants" to get better but even the slightest injuries cause setbacks. Even unknown triggers cause real setbacks.
