What Causes Tremors Despite A Normal Metabolic Panel?
My daughter takes lamictal and haldal for 1.5 years. Within past year, She trembled, fell down and can not get up twice and has to go to emergency room. The last emergency room visit was on Sept 24, this year. She also had neurologist follow up. Her metabolic panel, Vit 12, and vit D lab results were all within normal ranges. She continued to have trembles and could not get up from the chair due to no support from muscle, knee ankles etc. etc. Are these toxic side effects due to Lamictal and/or Haldo?

Hello,
Yes, it could be from the Haldol. It has movement disorder side effects. Please tell her Haldol prescriber about these issues.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
