So not only has my diagnosis changed to schizoaffective bipolar type, but I've also radically switched meds 3 months ago and it is working really well for me! I was on risperidone 6mg, zyprexa 10mg and Lexapro 10mg. My new doc tapered me off those and put me on Latuda 120mg. Now I'm only on 1 med and feeling terrific. This has been a Godsend for me. Also, side effects are very minimal compared to what I was on. It's like night and day!

That's awesome! Getting the meds just right doesn't happen often but it sure feels good when it happens. Thanks for sharing.
