Invega

Sometimes I have terrible chest pains since I started taking invega

Dear Doctors, 
My brother is 22 years old. He had an accident and had insomnia, depression, anger, feeling guilt of smashing the car and had some childhood flashbacks for about a week and was hospitalized. The time he was admitted to hospital he had t3,t4: 8.84 but now T is normal. and he has no symtoms any more and functions very well, but the doctor there diagnosed him as acute psychosis then he said he has Schizophrania, Im not convinced coz Im an OT and know that he had a PTSD and all criteria of Schezophrania is totallyy different according to DSMIV, They are giving him Prexa and invega.... Is that good or bad for him? what dose should he be taking? Im worried about him coz he is restless now , and spends most of the day and night eating.... But still studying, socializing, attends school and workshops properly.... 

Thank you for your big help

well i say ill quit i probably wont for awile. But eventually i will and i dont care what my mother thinks anymore. this medicine could make my heart stop beating and she would still think i need to take it. whatever .. elizabeth

i have been taking invge for 8 months... after four months i stopped menstrating and started producing milk from my breasts.. i haven't wanted to go anywhere or hang out with anyone after two months of the medicine being in my body. i hate it. I HATE IT! only now am i going to be able to change medicines, and respiradone has the same effects... so what im going to do is pretend im taking the med. and not. if i become unhealthy in my thought process ill just start taking it again. cmon it cant be that serious, you know. elizabeth
