Medication Change once again

Sep 08 2009

Today I called my doctor to tell her I was only getting 3-4 hours of sleep since taking the Abilify 10mg. So she is putting me back on the Seroquel 25mg at bedtime as well as increasing the Abilifyto 15mg. I sure hope it works.

She also told me to cut out caffeine after noon.

I have been a heavy drinker of Mountain Dew for years. I now drink one can in the morning and then I have a can of Rootbeer in the afternoon if I want to.
