I know what you mean about getting a pedi. I always feel bad for the tech doing the work. But I'm very friendly to them and I'm sure to tip really well.

I’d be willing to try an older AP but haldol gave me a pronounced jaw spasm and also raised my prolactin. But I was more worried about the jaw spasm because the last thing I need is TD on top of everything else. I can’t take cogentin because as I recall it gave me blurry vision. Although that could have been the lamictal. That changed my vision also but it was easily corrected by stronger glasses. I dunno, I’m willing to try anything honestly that won’t cause significant weight gain/high prolactin.
