Last week I was put on Seroquel to get rid of my voicesl. A few days ago my eyes got really blurry. So please forget any typos. I am als o drinking a lot of water and koolaid and then am in the bathroom it seems every 5 mintes. I am wondering if any of you had the same thing. I mentioned it to my pdoc yesterday and he told me to stop the med and come back nest week to see him.

Jannie,

I have been on Seroquel (100 mg) for about three weeks now. The only side effects that I have that are really bothersome are:
- unquenchable thirst (keep 44 oz of water next to bed every night)
- drunken feeling after I wake up which last 3-4 hours

I was warned by my pdoc about these potential side effects, but I think the thirst issue is also linked to my Lithium (excessive thirst is a known side effect as well).

I don't experience problems with my vision. I will keep you in my thoughts for when you visit your pdoc. Keep us posted.

Jenn
