Thanks for the reply. The muscle spasms are few and far between, maybe occurring once a month at most. They are freaky when I do get them. I snap awake in the middle of the night, jump out of bed, and uncontrollably extend and contract my arms for 5-10 seconds. It's like I'm doing the robot.
Blood sugar is okay, appetite is normal, weight is stagnant. I do consider myself lucky.
But thanks for the feedback. Zyprexa is a good drug for me all around, minus the spasms. Just a bit apprehensive about the possibility of TD. The research I've found on Olalzapine is consistent with what you're telling me. Relatively low chance of TD when compared with other drugs. It helps to hear people's input and experience with Atypicals.
