My doctors office called me back and put my mind at ease over this. They indicated that TD is not a reason to stop the meds and they'd just prescribe me muscle relaxants if I developed it. I sure hope I don't but I have to take the risk because I wouldn't be able to live in such a constant state of torment. We all really drew the short straw with this mental illness business. As if we don't have it bad enough, they can't make medicine without these horrible consequences. It's not fair. I wish I were more well and intelligent and could work to design a newer, better drug for all of us.
