They want me to take Seroquel, which is this medication:

First, they told me they wanted me to take 300mg tablets once daily. They said that sounds like a lot, but 800mg is the highest dose. According to the above information, it goes up to 400mg. They also said the only side effects were drowsiness and the possibility on high blood sugar. That side effects list definitely doesn't stop at drowsiness and high blood sugar. It's frightening. Plus, you aren't supposed to take it with an irregular heartbeat, which I have, and they know this. They're lying to me.
