    Do I change my meds now or stay on em

    Going to see my psychatrist this morning for meds review. Last time I raised my concerns about been on Olanzapine, and last time she asked if it I ever thought of changing meds to Quetapine. I have given it food for thought, but unsure whether I should change as it may cause effect!! So far my sleeping habits have been ok. Although my hubby feels i maybe on a high!!!! I feel I am moderate high if you know what I mean. I have been monitoring my moods daily to see if there's a pattern emerging for my bipolar. I might change but also have the same meds at hand just incase it's not working.

    I cant see the point in you changing to quetiapine it works on almost the same receptors as olanzapine but not as many.I have been on both and found olanzapine much better ,quetiapine gave me terrible nausea and migraines
    Why are you concerned about being on olanzapine ?
