I'm doing fine. It's interesting that I've read some articles/posts that basically say that seeing things out of the "corner of your eye" are somehow not hallucinations? Anyway, I spoke to my pdoc 3 weeks or so ago and she bumped up my Saphris. It's now back to where it was before my previous pdoc lowered it because of sleep issues. I'll be taking 15mg at night. I remember when I was first titrated up on the Saphris that I had issues at 10mg so being back at 15mg should be it.

Anyway, it's really hard to say whether I was experiencing visual hallucinations before I wound up seeing a pdoc because they blended so well into the environment around me. I'm sure I was having some sort of delusion at least, it's easy to see that when looking back. Not just delusions, but paranoid delusions. Haven't experienced anything like that since taking meds. I'm pretty sure I had schizoaffective disorder for at least a few years before I was diagnosed.

Glad to hear you're good. Has the increase in Saphris helped?

My insurance made a fubar and didn't send me my medication when I requested, so I had to call and complain (I had 2 days of meds left :shock: ). They gave me an override for my old prescription so I could pick some more up locally. So for now I'll just stay at 10mg until I run out from that prescription. The new prescription finally arrived for the higher dose but I'll wait to start using it unless something happens.
