In reply to I just noticed that the right half of my face is.., posted by lostforwards on December 6, 2004, at 12:30:06
> ...more numb than the other half of my face. My mouth doesn't move as much on that side, my smile is slightly crooked. It's also the side that my eyebrow arches or twitches on. Also when I squint it's the side of my face that creases up the least. is it any coincidence that my left arm is the one that doesn't swing. In fact the left side of my body has most of the problems - weak knee, and stiffer fingers relative to my right hand. All this after the AP. I really hope this is akinesia that I'm having trouble recovering from. It's pretty weird how it affects half of my body/face more than the other.
AMAZING I thought I was the only one.. You just described my exact symptoms!! AP= antipsycotic?? I am on abilify right now and it seems that is the culprit.. but I can't find any info on it online..(numbness) I think it's notorious for causing the movment problems though.. I don't think they develop into anything serious though.. only in rare scenarios.. I've had this prob with prozac to and it eventualy subsided..
