I am of the opinion, which may be wrong or right, I don’t know, that the injectable medication Risperdal Consta is interfering with my ability to perform well on my digital piano. I have ordered professional recording equipment so that I can make an educated assessment of my playing ability. My smartphone recorder makes my playing sound choppy and distorted. But, that’s just what they do, I was told. I don’t trust what people tell me about my playing ability. I get mixed messages from people in that regard.
I have made an appointment with my pdoc to discuss treatment options other than Risperdal Consta. This appointment is in approximately sixteen days. Risperdal Consta is a very good medication for my psychotic and mood symptoms. My pdoc and I hesitate to change it, but, if it is interfering with my playing ability, I may have no choice. The last time he and I talked about it, we decided to leave things as is.

My meds for 12 years have had the price of sedation and overproduction of stomach acid
That about the worst
Sorry I hope you have a good outcome
I’m switching at the moment too
Have you tried Geodon and/or Seroquel? Those med’s have kept me from becoming psychotic with few side effects for over a decade.
Yes, I am on both Geodon 240 mg a day and Seroquel 200 mg a day as well as Risperdal Consta 37.5 mg every two weeks right now, @crimby.
