Tardive dyskinesia is definitely not what you have going on. Tardive means "late", like another similar word, tardy.
You do have a dyskinesia, although it probably falls into the category of EPS (extra-pyramidal symptoms). The drug seems to be unsuitable for you. The symptom ought to remit on discontinuation of the drug.

>Seroquel is the next one to try. Blurred vision from Zyprexa is probably due to it's antimuscarinic effect.

Hi:
Any of newer form of A.P.s, from Seroquel to Riserdal has some sort of problem for some takers. I've been on the Zyprexa along with other meds. for quite awhile, ... about close to four years. However, I never experience any of S.E.s which you stated in your very first post.You may go to an opthomologist for eye-examination whether this is due to the Geodon, ... however it seems to me you've been under some of serious form of S.E.s, mentioned/responded by Larry Hoover.
In my knowledge, one AP does NOT work on you, ...then it might be no use for you to try other newer A.P.s., due to its active ingredients. However, I have NO good clue on this, ... just from my personal experience. Rather, older form of A.P. could suit to your system/brain, because somewhere here in Internet some 'older' A.P. doing better job on some of folks. However, like any other meds., this is all depends on person's condition. Only the professionals know this well. In my suggestion, try to contact your pdoc. ASAP.
H.G.

The drug you have been given, Akineton (biperiden) is ideal for your symptoms. I'm afraid that you're just going to have to give it a little time to work. It's scary, of course. But it will fade away soon.Lar
