Hmmm. .. perhaps you're right I mean in the begining I was feeling ok but after one or two days I started losing coordination in my fingers and then the mind numbing started, followed by being almost unable to talk and twitching and the episodes which went from simply being dizzy to stuff that was really seizure -like.
I'm going to try and see my usual doctor next week but its quite probably that I'll have to wait until after holidays. I still don't understand why he didn't start me on a smaller dose though.
Although its hard to tell if its the Effexor (going from 225 to 300) or the Zyprexa. I think its rather strange to change two things at the same time because its hard to tell what is the cause of improvements or problems.
I can't take the Zyprexa until monday though since I'm in Montreal and I was so pissed at the symptoms when I left home that I didn't bring them I guess in a way it will let me see if things improve or / become worse as time passes. My last pill was Thursday night so its my third day without it.
