[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 79836, member: 1514"] Abbey...you didnt say in your post what mg of seroquel the doctor put you on unless I missed it in both my first and second readings of your post. Seroquel is typically used strictly in the bipolar/schizoid patients but it is being used more and more off label for patients who have sleep and pain issues and most especially the combo of sleep/pain issues. Very low doses such as 25 mgs to 50 mgs have been shown to really give a great effect for these patients. The side effect profile seems really low at that dose too. You may notice a bit more lethargy for a few days, with a bit more daytime fatigue but you should get over that in just a few days. I cant say as I noticed a decrease in my anxiety level with it but thats me. If this doesnt work for you, this new medication Lyrica is really proving awesome in helping out with not only pain but anxiety as well. [/QUOTE]
