Feeling weird

[azdesertrose]

I think the Zyprexa is making me shaky or something. I'm having trouble typing because I can't get my hands to obey me.

I just feel really weird, and the Zyprexa is making me sleep for ages. I still want to sleep but I think I'd better stay awake so that I'm not up all night.

Sleepiness is one of the side effects of Zyprexa; weight gain is one of the other biggies with being on this drug. Ryan was on it for about 6 months and gained 40 lbs. during that time. I remember he would get up during the night and go get something to eat and then go back to sleep. And the next morning he would not remember doing that.

I know that there is also current litigation against the manufacturer of the drug because of the weight gain and the increase in diabetes among people who have taken Zyprexa.

I'm not trying to scare you by telling you these things - just sharing what I know and what Ryan went through while on it.

Thank you for letting me know. I'm thinking that it's not going to work very well for me anyway as it's making me feel very weird, edgy and shaky and tired all at the same time.
