sbe,

Does my heart ever feel for you...I'm in the process of losing the last 5lbs of the 55 I gained when I started taking Zyprexa. It's such a good med, if they'd just warn you about the weight gain...If you take the Zyprexa again, taking Topamax with it helps a little on the weight gain. Topamax is an anti-seisure med, but a lot of doctors use it as a mood stabilizer.

I've had a few friends tell me that they've had great success with Geodon, and it doesn't carry any weight gain side effects with it. You might try asking your doc?

I wish you the best of luck, and no more problems! Hopefully Cam will have some input on this too, being the resident genius and all .
