I've never used quetiapine/seroquel but from what I have read the side effects do include restlessness and tremor. Your problem might be dosage related so it's good you're talking to your doc. I'm not in the U.K. so I hope that's not important.

Yes, restless legs and akisthesia can happen with antipsychotic meds. I have experience it....and its horrible.

Certain meds can counteract it...Cogentin, propranolol, benadryl, and Benzos, like Klonopin.

It is also related to having low serum iron and iron deficient anemia.

I do have very low iron...I even got iron infusions which helped alot.

Good luck Tirian! I hope all will be well soon.

I also have had these issues - and actually found much relief, increasing my water, lots of water......... very rarely do I have it now, maybe once or twice a year? versus most the night : )

Hope you find relief ASAP : )

I was always shaky on seroquel. ALWAYS. It was a constant fog of shakiness. You should definitely call your pdoc and let them know. I would call ASAP to see if you should continue taking the meds or not at all.
