I feel swollen (but I am not) in my legs, feet, arms and hands and I have joint pain all over like a deep ache and in my muscles too. I don't have a fever which is what I thought when I got up this morning.

Could this be a side effect? My most recent med is Abilify 7.5 mg.

I am also on Trileptal 1200mg
Lithium 300mg
Prozac 20mg

and Seroquel PRN for sleep, which I haven't taken except for one day last week.

I am really uncomfortable.

Thoughts?

Some time ago I requested full prescribing information from the manufacturer regarding Abilify and have reread it but can't seem to find anything in the info regarding your symptoms, but that doesn't mean your symptoms are less significant. I would err on the side of caution and contact your pdoc as soon as possible if your symptoms don't seem to subside.

Hope you feel better soon.

Have you tried calling the pharmacy and asking if any of this could be side effects from your meds? Or you can try to call a local hospital/clinic and speak to a nurse...they might be able to find out if you are experiencing side effects or if it could be something unrelated. I hope that you feel better soon!
