Hey Sharla Abilify didn't work for me either. It made me feel strange. I got off of it quickley. I was put on Seroquel. It makes me tired,but I'm doing better on it. Now I'm on the generic form of it. I'm also on the generic forms of Xanax,and Luvox. BF

Hi Sharla,
I'm sorry Abilify didn't work out. Akathisia sucks. The Lamictal will be fine. Quote:

Dear Sharla,
Lamitcal is a good idea. I am happy that you are and the doc are working things out. M |

I am a lot better than I was a few days ago. I feel a big difference in going back on lamictal. I feel like I might be able to go back to work again. I still have to take abilify every other day tho till I am off it. Yuck. I take quarter of klonopin daily twice.
I have back pains and I am not sure what from. I assume from the akathisia? But for now that is my only worry. Once i get to 50 mg I will be more stable! I am glad to go back on lamictal again. thanks everyone for responding I guess baby will have to wait...again...sigh...

Hi Sharla
Quote:
I don't know whether the back pains have to do with the akathisia - certainly could... might have just overworked some muscles, in which case they will settle. If you don't see gradual decrease in these pains, do call your pdoc or your regular mdoc about them. It could be unrelated to the akathisia and might need attention. Continue to take good care of yourself as you have been doing. Quote:

Hey Sharla. When I mentioned that I take seroquel,I didn't mean that it is alright for a pregnancy. I would think that seroquel would be a risk in a pregnancy.
I'm glad that the lamictal helps. When I tried Abilify,I felt like things where slanted,and something was definitely wrong. I was forgetting what to say before I would say something in a sentence. It wasn't right for me either. BF |
