I’ve been on geodon for 11 years. It’s worked out great and I can see a difference and I’ve had basically no side effects and stuff.

This past month maybe, My heart has been racing at night. Sometimes it’s not all that fast and sometimes it is. Last week I woke up at 1-2 in the morning and my heart was beating so fast that my chest hurt. It was painful.

I know geodon can do to your heart what lithium can do to your kidneys. Is this a common issue? Also the longer your on geodon are the risks higher of developing heart issues? I know it’s rare for lithium to cause issues if you’ve been on it less then 20 years. But it only took 7 years for me to get kidney damage from it.

Does anyone have any comments or suggestions?
