Shar.
One more thing. If Risperdal is a miracle drug for you, and the emerging EPS is *not* true TD, then you might want to consider treating the side effects with things like Cogentin or trihexyphenidyl. Cam W. is good with stuff like that. You might also want to get his reaction to using Seroquel. I think his impression of this drug has changed over time. It might have the lowest risk of producing EPS. I tried it, but didn't care much for it. It didn't produce the small improvements that I have experienced with Risperdal, Zyprexa, and Geodon. But then again, I was using it for depression only.
I hope some of this is helpful.
