Can I ask what strength you are on? I wonder if that side effect will diminish over time...

I have this weird twitch throughout my body that I never had before starting Zyprexa. I know they say the chance of developing TD from an atypical is almost 100% impossible, but I'm not so sure. Just be careful.
