Thanks for the suggestions, Emme. Will ask this new doctor about those things you're taking. My wife has taken so many things! She was then called refractory, and referred to ECTs. Neither the referring doctor, nor the ECT psychiatrist diagnosed her EPS symptoms, akathisia, dysthonia, etc. She was put through five ECTs and they had to be stopped.
That's why I'm so concerned. She was on Serzone for seven weeks, and as soon as we fired the ECT practitioner, the new doctor told us he wouldn't prescribe Serzone for his patients and took her off it (The liver damage thing in Europe, Canada, and in the Physician's Referral Manual in the US - the FDA is aware of it).
Thanks again,
Nickm
