Cathy4 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Hi, I’m just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this: I’m having weird sensations in my abdomen that come and go—sometimes related to eating and sometimes not. Also tingling and just weird sensations along my flanks sometimes. I wouldn’t really call these symptoms painful, but they make me very anxious like something is going on inside of me and I have no idea what it is. I worry about ingesting food because it sometimes makes it worse. I just feel like things are screwy: digestion, hunger, lack of hunger. Can anyone offer reassurance?

I mean, I'm not wishing this upon anyone, I just want to know whether anyone has experienced anything remotely like it.

Cathy4 Posted November 18, 2019 Author Share Posted November 18, 2019 Thanks for responding, Direstraits, I really appreciate it. Yes, it moves around quite a bit and I thought first.. "shingles?" And the abdominal stuff is really weird, too. I'm not glad you had it, too, but I'm just happy to not be alone because I've been freaking out about this stuff and I'm really trying to stay cool-headed about symptoms. So thank you.

Moderator hayduke Posted November 21, 2019 Moderator Share Posted November 21, 2019 Hi Cathy4 Are you taking anything with a histamine effect? Can lead to itches, rashes etc and generally worsen allergies as well. Glad to report I've noticed that significantly abate as I've cut down my dosage of olanzapine. All the best I am not a health professional - your actions are your own. Please do not seek tapering support via private message - "Any reason to hold is a good one" My taper visualised as a graph | My intro thread Backdrop: 2003 10mg olanzapine | 2004 2-3mg risperidone | end 2014 3wks aripiprazole 2015: olanzapine 10 -> 7½ -> 6⅔ -> 5mg by crude pill cutter 2018: Mar 5.00mg -> water titrated taper -> Aug2.5mg tablet and hold Jan 2019 2.50mg water titration -> Jan 2020 1.214 -> Jan 2021 0.44 -> 2 Oct 0.205 ->3 Oct ZERO🥂 Jun 2023 💉150mg paliperidone "loading" depot shot, 100mg 1wk after Jul 100mg Aug-Dec 75mg/4wks Jul 2023 2.50mg aripiprazole/day attempt to lower prolactin^ Jan-Feb 2024 cross taper off shots to 1mg risperidone Ask not what you can do for your country, but what your country did to you" -- KMFDM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think I am—all I’m taking is 37.5mcg levothyroxine .375mg klonopin 67.5mg zoloft supplements are: fish oil, magnesium, and some d-mannose I’ll be wary of taking anything with a histamine effect for sure. I appreciate your help. This symptom seems to come & go. I’m glad yours is abating.
