This is just out of curiosity.
I'm on seven. For ****'s sake. I'm a walking pharmacy! I don't know what to do though. Everything has a purpose. How many are you on?

Three, including the Cogentin I use to mitigate side effects from my antipsychotic. I used to be on as many as five but I eventually worked my way down to the three.

Lamictal, Seroquel, klonopin, Abilify, Propranolol --that's 5. Methadone for Central Pain Syndrome.
I used to take high doses of Seroquel when I was very unstable, but I've, very fortunately, little by little, been able to cut it down to 25mg, so now I'm really only taking it to sleep. My pdoc told me that that's not a therapeutic dose, but she also told me that the pharmaceutical company has only tested higher doses, so who knows. |

I'm finally being compliant on 1 Med -seroquel. Hopefully can avoid more as who knows if I would take it.
