hi everyone

i have been sick for 7 years and i usually tend towards instability. Maintainence only lasts for a few months before things start getting out of control. I just discussed with my dr over injection n she said she can try it with the newest possible med Paliperidone. It's as stated on other web, one injection per month. I have always taken drugs orally in the past, unless it's for acute situation inpatient where they use shots. While pills per visit cost me $10 per type, the injection cost $3000 per shot. My doc says I can't be off most of my oral pills coz the other drugs serve other purposes (E.g. mood, sleeping)

If I say yes, she will try me on the oral tablet for a week to check for any side-effects/allergy, before having a heavy dose on the first shot on the second week for the body to adjust.

If anyone of you have heard anything or have any advice/opinion, pls feel free to comment. I would appreciate any contribution or thoughts.
