eye spasm's

Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

I have been on Strattera for five wks(40mg) and my left eye has been having wierd spasm’s…. I am wondering if this is also a side effect due to Strattera. I discontinued my dose until my eyes snaps back to normal (5days of on & off spasm’s going on six days) off my strattera for 2days and still feeling eye spasm’s.(is this good?)

Sometimes people will have eye spasms when they are tired but I would definitely call the prescribing Dr. to make sure that something else neurologically isn’t going on..

I think its the meds. I had a weird eye spasm when I tried Strattera. It didn’t happen all the time but it did happen. Strange huh? Once I stopped taking the med, it stopped.

I think you need to stop and take a long look at your self that rude remark about eightball and conparing it to meds that are used to help peple whom suffer from a very serious illness it’nt funny at all. I don’t see how you think you are even qulified to medical advise when you are in dept with yourself it seems you have more serious problems to resolve before you make jugdement on others when knowing and proud that you a drug addick.

Some of the stimulant medications f/ ADD can exacerbate or cause tics.

You do realise that Strattera is not a STIMULANT. Showing your ignorance again and causing trouble here and the Parenting boards too.
Haven’t you got anything better to do than to harrass and impersonate people. You are disgusting.

I think what we got here Mayleng is a bunch of highschool drop outs who never recieved a diagnosis nor treatment. Naaah, that would make them real human beings, we have too much evidence against that.

I know Strattera isn’t a stimulant; that’s why I didn’t say just ADD medication.

Haven’t you learned to reckognize Ball’s posts yet? He always uses multi-clause sentences w/o proper punctuation or conjunctions. It’s like the written version of the pressured speech hyper people use.

Just a quick note here, folks. There were a bunch of wierd posts in front of rebelmom’s. They were deleted. Rebelmom is NOT knocking the people who started or responded on this thread—it just looks that way.

Under, Are you getting defensive and paranoid? I was directing my post to Ball - whose post in response to the Strattera question was to call it a drug (this post was deleted by the moderators). So if you are not one of Ball’s cronies, why are you getting defensive to a post that was not directed at you. I specifically put Ball’s name on the Subject. I didn’t put “under” in the subject. Are you from the group from “the land Down Under” ?

May, go back and read the sequence of posts and maybe things will be clearer. Let’s not get into the “defensive and paranoid” whatever we’re getting into here.

In response to your question about the group from the land down under: since I don’t know who they are, I’m pretty sure the answer is “no.”

Under, I was answering the Ball and imposter LindaF posts (which) has been deleted from the board. I mentioned Ball’s name. No where did I mention “under”.

We knew it wasn’t you Linda F. But Pretty Pleeeaaase register! This one man show has multiperonalities and can start posting very subtley and it might get harder to tell soon if its him or not, when he posts. He could be right under our noses.

It does get confusing when they delete the posts, it gets confusing who we are responding to. I guess we can keep this straight by quoting from the post we are responding to. Sorry I didn’t have the foresight.
