In reply to Geodon nearly killed me » allisonf, posted by Mimi on September 2, 2003, at 20:24:16
I'm so sorry to hear that Geodon affected your heart like that. I have to say, I got a little freaked when I read the enclosed pamphlet that came with my Geodon. I've never taken Zyprexa, and am nervous about the weight gain issue. Have you ever known anyone to take Zyp and *not* gain weight? My pdoc says you can take it with Topomax to offset the weight gain problem. Not sure I want to do that tho...
I've actually taken Seroquel once before and liked it a lot. I was on a small dose before bed. You've given me an idea--maybe if this doesn't go away, I could try losing the Geodon & upping my old dose of Seroquel (with my pdoc's consent of course...)
Thanks--A
