Re: Let`s talk about Bipolar

Hi @Bunniekins @Shaz51 thanx for the tags. I'm taking things slowly atm. Welcome to @Maritza. Hello to @Clawde who's often a quiet supporter.

My replies to threads are getting random date and timestamps, years old, perhaps there's a bug.

Stay warm and comfy everyone. Hope your tremors improve @Bunniekins they're not good, I hope you're not having muscle/movement problems too. I had them as a side effect at one stage.

Cheers, Dimity

Re: Let`s talk about Bipolar

Hi @Bunniekins it was a long time ago but I remember the hand tremors and problems with muscle responsiveness cleared when I had a change of med. I was also put onto a special med that I only took when I had problems. It was common with old style antipsychs, and I also had problems with my eyes from time to time. Your pdoc should be across it so definitely talk to them.

Just be careful picking up anything like a hot cup of tea til you get it sorted.

Thinking of you xx Dimity

@Dimity Thanks Dimity :). Nice to know that you have been there and conquered it. Tremors are so debilitating it drives me crazy. Love peaxxx

Re: Let`s talk about Bipolar

@Bunniekins, I also suffered from tremors as side effect of big L. It was really embarrassing for me. Pdoc reduced the dose according to my blood levels. That made it a bit better. Now I am taking the big L at night tine only as it is a long acting drug. This made the tremors better again. I hope they will get better for you soon. I know how annoying it can be. Hugs
