Hi Ross,
Thanks for the nice summary of your experiences on all the anti-psychotics.
What are you refering too with the "plant issues"
and "injectable form" ?I read all the posts on pbabble and I decided to
start with Zyprexa as a result. I haven't really
had any problems tolerating it but I am having
some clenching/twitching in my hand and am a bit
paranoid about it being Zyprexa related. However
everything I read and info from my pdoc suggests
it is highly unlikely. I get these twitches on
and off even before Zyprexa so it might just be
a bogus chance association.Thanks for more info,
John
