I currently am dealing with weight gain from damn seroquel ...25 lbs !its making me down right batty ! I love seroquel becasue it does allow me to sleep which in turm helps me cope better ,,I have issues with anorexia and a 25 lb weight gain in 3-4 months has me flipping out ,, But im also concerned for my health as 25 lb weight gain in such a short amount of time is UNHEALTHY also .. Seroquel can cause diabetes and personally I am sick of constantly feeling starved and needing to eat all the damn time .
I see my Pdoc tomorrow and Im hopefully him and I can figure something else out ...
But yes it does seeem like most all of the medications cause wicked side effects ...Makes me often wonder what is worse..... ME off meds and not eating anything that doesnt move but being very unstable or me on the meds and eating everything and working towards a more stable me ...
Wishing you Peace and Love and Hopefully a good option for your medications
