Seroquel and brain damage
Common Questions and Answers about Seroquel and brain damage
seroquel
I have been on Seroquel 600mg and Effexor 300mg. I too am having nerve problems with my ulner nerve, numb, tingling along the inside of my left arm along with the pinky, ring finger and side of my palm. In addition to that, my inside left calf, ball of my foot and big toe are the same. The big problem is that I have an undiagnosed eye pain that is preventing me keeping my eyes open for too long at a time. I hope you find a solution to your problems.
The knowledge that I have is that xanax and Seroquel do not have an impact on your liver. Also 50 mgs of Seroqeul is very low dose. I am on 600. However it looks like you have hepatitis c and you probably know you shouldn't drink because of that. There are likely a lot of medications that effect your liver. The only ones I know of are Tylenol and pain medicines that contain acetaminophen, but I am sure there are likely a lot more.
You know you have not caused any permanent damage. It is often difficult to get back into a normal sleep cycle. You should get a doctor's visit and see if your doctor can prescribe something more to get you started. Oftentimes you only need three to four a good night's sleep in order to restore the cycle. Perhaps in your attempt to treat yourself you do not give yourself sufficient dose of Ambien or other longer acting sedatives. Your doctor should be able to help you.
The answer to the question is as follows: TX is a powerful treatment that can in some, or even many cases, produce a wide range of side effects, and post-treatment side effects that may last for days, weeks, months, years, or in some cases it appears permanently. The first goal is to get rid of the virus, especially in those whom it has advanced beyond early stages, or seems to be causing significant physical or cognitive problems.
The CAT Scans do not show any trace of a stroke and the EKG do not show signs of a heart attack. the doctors tell us that there is damage to the brain, but they won't know the extent until my father regains consciousness. He is non responsive to voices and the little movements that he makes that doctors tell us that those are just reflex actions. What can we expect from all this? should we get a second opinion?
Does anyone know or have a link to a website that describes the effects on the brain of long term alcohol abuse? I've been feeling great these last few days of being clean and sober, but I still feel foggy and confused easily and wanted to learn more about it and if I've caused permanent damage since I started drinking so young.
Hi....I think u mean damage to the brain...not brain damage unless it is untreated.
There is a condition called syringomyelia and it can be caused from a trauma or even whiplash, another condition that can be there since birth, but triggered during or after a trauma is chiari malformation.
U should always get checked if u have a head trauma.....Natasha Richardson died shortly after falling while skiing.....
I am sleeping maybe every 3 nights, but the nights I do not sleep and take the seroquel; I feel really weird and think it is making me go crazy. I do not know if I should decrease the seroquel? When is this nightmare going to be over for me? I want to be able to sleep normally, I want to feel normal again and I do not want to feel like I am on this emotional rollocoaster. I think my neurotransmitters and equalibrium are going hay wire. Is my brain going to heal?
I am on 300mg of seroquel and 200 zoloft, and yes there has been weight gain somethign i struggle with. I'm all about the sugar especially at night time. One thing i did start that actually has been really great was a Vitamin B complex, and it has really curbed my appetite especially at night. Been on it just over a week and have lost 3 pounds. might be worth a try.
Hi. I've been on Seroquel and then Seroquel XR for about two years now. I was initially prescribed it for bipolar mania, and the resultant insomnia. I have had panic attacks before prior to taking Seroquel, however never constantly, and never for no reason at all. I would have a panic attack after a traumatic event, or when I smoked pot as a teenager, but otherwise I never had them.
I would never take it even though I have OCD as well. Seroquel can cause long term neurological damage such as tardive dyskinesia. That to me would far outweigh any short term benefit. I think there are safer alternatives for sleep troubles and cognitive behavioral therapy can help you get your obsessions under control.
Seroquel is one of the 'atypical antipsychotics' that came out about ten years ago. They were first used for serious mental illness like schizophrenia, and then for bipolar disorder, and then for the thing we 'call' bipolar in children, that really isn't bipolar disorder.
I've read and read and talked and talked and even personally experimented with my own seroquel dosing. I'm a card carrying bipolar and typical of such folk have tried everything out there in pharm-world alone and in combination. For me, Seroquel is the ticket. I have one problem.
A few years ago I made a move to a more healthy lifestyle which includes diet, exercise, yoga, and meditation - all good things. I even went back to work.
