In other news I got to drive home in a complete downpour from C's. It was sprinkling when I was walking out to my car after leaving his house, then poured down cats and dogs all the minute I was shutting my door and all the way till I was pulling onto my street. I hate the rain. We need it, but I still hate it. Especially driving in it. I made it home though. *eh*

I was beat when I got home and took a nap and just woke up a little bit ago and caught up on the couch. Now to change in a little bit and get to CVS for my evening shift.

*omg* I just put pressure on my breasts to adjust my bra and lactated. I did that after taking Risperdal pills for a after about 3 or 4 years, so pdoc switched me to Latuda pills which were making me puke no matter how much I ate with them. So we switched to Invega pills for a bit, until I became non-compliant and went on shots. Now I have been on shots for 3 years and am lactating again. Invega is related to Risperdal though. Looks like I will be bringing it up to pdoc when I see him next week. Wonder what our options are as lactating mean the meds are messing with my hormones, but changing to something else may take a bit to become active in my system. Great here come the hallucinations. Well...I lost my insurance that covered the Invega anyways, so maybe it is a good thing side effects have appeared.
Squirrel lactating is from too much prolactin. I had the same problem. If your doctor is willing you can take metformin and it reverses the increased prolactin side effect. Abilify also does the same reversing of prolactin

I had actually lost my period for months because of invega but I started taking metformin but now my prolactin is fine

There are reseArch studies on this just Google increased prolactin from risperdal/invega and reversing it with metformin and abilify
