Hi All,
I went back on meds about a year ago to address symptoms that were making it hard to work. I am extremely med sensitive and about 7 years ago I finished up a course of ECT so I could get off meds. I was med free for 6 years but last year decided I needed a little support to make sure I can keep working. I got off disability and don’t want to have to get back on.
Anyway, I went through trials of a few meds, had my usual array of side effects and finally landed on Latuda in August. I take only 40mg, and have noticed over the last three days what felt like jaw stiffness. I have been noticing that I also find that my tongue seems to get stiff inside my mouth and the front of my throat, or the space underneath my tongue gets stiff, and I feel like my jaw, tongue and mouth occasionally make very subtle movements. I can relax everything when I notice it happening, but it has increased to many times per hour.
I don’t know if it is just stress, or the beginning of TD. I see my p-doc on Monday morning.
Thoughts?
