Anyone had a twitchy eyelid on Quetiapine?

[mawbroon]

I've been on Quetiapine since about February. It's working really well for me apart from weight gain from sugar cravings.

Yesterday, my eyelid started twitching like mad and it's still going today.

Dr Google says it could be all sorts of things, but that antipsychotic drugs are one of the main culprits if it is a side effect of medication.

Weird that it would start now though after 8 months or so on the meds.

Anyone ever had this?

Yes I've had this when I increased the dose. It went when I increased. But I've had a lot of joint and muscle problems from the quetiapine. Even though it works brilliantly for me, I'm having to move to something else. The joint pain is having a massive effct on my life. I can't exercise, take huge quantities of painkillers and some evenings I have to crawl up the stairs.

Sorry, when I deceased. Stupid phone.

Argh! When I decreased, definitely not deceased.

It seems to have stopped now thank goodness.
