Hey my name is Christina and Im 20. When I was 11 I got diagnosed with ADHD, then at age 14 my ADHD went into Bipolar.Three months ago I stopped taking Seroquel which i was on for 6 yrs and i couldnt sleep for 1mnth and a half and I was getting nerve sensations and numbness and buzzing in the back of my head. Im back on it now but these symptoms are not going away. Do you have any advice? Doctors dont have any clue whats wrong with me. I've taken different tests and they all come back negative. I tried to take this nerve test, but once they gave me a small electric shock I screamed and I couldnt go on with the test. Some part of me thinks its my medication, because these symptoms started 3 weeks after I stopped taking Seroquel and not sleeping for 3weeks straight. It was so bad that I even had panic attacks every day and i kept running to the emergency room. Now the panic attacks went away, but i have a lot of anxiety, and short of breath a lot. Does anyone know anything about this problem? Christina
