Anxious about treatment
January 3rd, 2009
i utter same sentences again and again when been provoked by some incident.It seems to be involuntary.I had the habit of muttering again and again and i think this damaged some nerves and blood vessels in the brain(topmost part).I feel tired very soon.I cannot concentrate on my work for more than an hour.Are these related with schizophrenia?the drug given for schizophrenia was olanzapine caused diabetes and premature ovarian failure.My periods have reduced to 2 days and sometimes only one day.What is the treatment for all this???

Hi zigzagzoom. It sounds like you've got a lot going on here. Palilalia is a speech defect marked by abnormal repetition of syllables, words, or phrases. Palilalia is more a symptom of Tourette syndrome, Asperger syndrome, or autism. But have you been diagnosed with schizophrenia? Are you currently seeing a neurologist?

Sometimes palilalia can be treated with trazodone but currently there are no medications specifically designed to target tics, like repeated words. Additionally, complementary and alternative medicine such as diet changes, allergy testing and allergen control, and neurofeedback, are popular treatment methods but no evidence has been shown in the efficient treatment of Tourette syndrome at the moment.

To follow up, I suggest that you consult a neurologist, preferably a neurologist who looks at medicine HOLISITICALLY.
