Just a couple more days and I'll go off to see the doctor again, and you can bet I'll post about everything she tells me.

Keep us posted on what your doc says, and best wishes to you. I know the disease you fight is very difficult; keep journaling your thoughts. I think that's VERY good for you!

Thank you! I read the article you pointed me to and it sounds like something I should definately bring up to my doctor. I'll be back in to see her on the sixth, so we'll see what she says then =). Thanks again

Hi Hacker
Hey, I know this may sound a little hocus-pocus like, but talk with your psychiatrist about taking fish oil along with your Risperdal if you're not already doing this. Some studies have shown that taking a few grams of fish oil/day may help decrease the psychoses that torment those suffering from schizophrenia. Plus, the fish oil is good for your heart and is generally well tolerated. Hang in there! (See http://www.currentpsychiatry.com/2004_01/0104_omega-3_fatty_acids.asp)
