I saw my pdoc an hour ago. He is pleased with my progress. As acne almost gone only issues were sleep and high blood pressure. He increased my nightly Seroquel to 75mg and recommended I see my general practitioner about BP. If needed there are meds I can take but I REALLY hope it doesn’t get to that. My pdoc said at least for now I must remain on Geodon (most likely cause) since it’s the first med that has ever stabilised me and crushed psychosis.

I also don’t want to increase Seroquel. On 50mg I tend to get 3-5 hours max so I see his point, and without it I just don’t sleep. Tried other meds. Nothing works. I just don’t want to put on weight. Haven’t really so far but in the past higher doses packed it on.

The good bit was the conversation we had about my psychosis and his experience of it, as well as mine of course. He is a great doctor who genuinely cares about me. He clearly went above and beyond to help me come back to reality and basically stay alive while IP. It strengthened our therapeutic bond. I am lucky to have him.

See my T tomorrow. I’m sure it will go well too.
