Open Question: Would failing to eat for a week lower blood pressure?
(Sun, 22 Nov 2009 06:19:56 GMT)
I'm due to undergo a blood check and brief medical exam before beginning a new medication. I know the drug can't be prescribed if the patient has low blood pressure, high blood sugar or poor liver function. Its possible that I wont have eaten for 3 or 4 days before the test is taken, will this give a false reading and therefore prevent me from receiving the treatment? If so how many hours before the test must I eat to raise blood pressure again? Would this make blood sugar too high? Please d

Resolved Question: How long would it usually take for QUETIAPINE to reduce psychotic symptoms?
(Fri, 20 Nov 2009 04:38:06 GMT)
I know it'll vary from person to person but in general terms how long would you expect it to take to work (if it's going to) is it likely to be a week, weeks or months. Will the psychosis instantly disappear or will it gradually reduce? The psychosis is relatively mild, infrequent visual hallucinations, the feeling of bugs under the skin and audio hallucinations. I'm due to start taking it in the next week, I'd just like to know how a recovery is likely to progress. thanks in advance

I have been on quetiapine before and I went from 7 stone to 13 stone in two months, this made me so self concious which did not help me mentally at all. I do not want this to happen again.

I would really value peoples experiences of being on lithium, not only if it has made them gain weight but

I'm currently attending day hospital due to a relapse with bipolar (I stopped my meds, went manic with steroids, and crashed with a mixed episode).

I also have trouble accepting the diagnosis. The psychiatrist at the hospital refuses to listen to my concerns and twists my words.
