Torecan (tietilperazin)

Kimberly Ward said:Of course you don't have any [results], because every doctor is just going to send you off for more tests. That scarring didn't happen because of this. The damage was already there from before. If nothing shows up, they'll just pull out the CSF. Honestly, stop listening to people on the internet. You should've gotten a discharge summary when you were at the ER. And get that CSF checked. As for how I'm doing? Just use your head for a second. Brain scarring shows up on MRIs, VEP, EEG, and all that. What was the actual stressor before all that happened? And seriously, stop telling them it's caused by this, otherwise they aren't going to take you seriously and will just send you away.

Why won't you give us the full story about your trip to the ER? Like, why exactly did you go? (And please, leave the Torecan talk out of it).

I’ve certainly dealt with my fair share of stress in my life, so I was taking antidepressants. But honestly? Back then, even just watching something adult would get me worked up without any issues, and I could always reach those intense orgasms. Once I started the ADs, I felt completely castrated—all my emotions just vanished. Eventually, I got off them. My orgasms came back, though they weren't quite what they used to be; they were harder to achieve, but they were good, and I actually enjoyed them. That feeling of being turned on returned too, even if it was only at about 5-7% capacity. No matter how much I made out with my boyfriend or how relaxed and happy I felt, it was always like that. Then it hit me: I have what’s known as PSSD, something that even the FDA has acknowledged (https://rxisk.org/ema-acknowledges-p...r-ssris-snris/). A word of warning: all types of ADs can cause this, not just SSRIs and SNRIs. Besides the sexual dysfunction, I had other symptoms like emotional blunting—my ability to feel fear and love was pretty much trashed, while happiness and sadness stayed somewhat intact, especially sadness. I also dealt with cognitive issues like poor memory, trouble concentrating, and brain fog. On top of that, I suffered from occasional insomnia, tinnitus, sudden hot flashes, and chronic fatigue. By taking it one tiny step at a time, things slowly started looking up. I celebrated every single micro-improvement. Then, 20 months later, my entire world flipped 180 degrees and everything fell apart because of that Torecan injection. I didn't want it, and frankly, I didn't have the guts to stand up to the doctors and refuse it. Since that injection, my condition has worsened a thousandfold, and my life is ruined. I saw a neurologist two weeks ago, and she refused to run any tests because she's basically covering up a pharmaceutical crime. God help her when she hits heavy dementia and they just pump her full of antipsychotics; the poor woman.

By taking things slow, everything started getting better. I celebrated every tiny bit of progress. Then, 20 months later, my entire life flipped 180 degrees and my world fell apart because of that Torecan injection I didn't even want—but I didn't have the guts to stand up to the doctors and refuse it. Ever since that shot, my condition has worsened a thousand times over and my life is ruined. I saw a neurologist two weeks ago, and she refused to run any tests because she's busy covering up a pharmaceutical crime. God, I hope she gets some kind of dementia, that woman is useless.

Find yourself a decent psychiatrist immediately, before you wreck yourself and everyone around you even further. Sorry, but you didn't actually answer the question—what exactly did they do for you in the ER? You keep dodging that. Have you considered that maybe the neurologist wouldn't give you the tests because she read what you're posting on this forum? Think about that.

I find it hard to believe she actually read it, considering she had zero clue about my situation or the fact that I was heading straight to her office.
She’s out here playing defense for Big Pharma because she’s essentially living off commissions, leading sheep blindly into the fray with all those unnecessary, neurotoxic pills. Honestly, I hope she finds a use for that money someday—maybe for treating a serious illness of her own.
At the ER, they went through the usual routine: blood pressure, pulse, oxygen levels, a quick neurological check... and then they handed me Torecan, which basically wrecked my life.
So now, somehow, I’m the one causing destruction everywhere I go, rather than being a victim of the pharmaceutical genocide that Americans call pharmacide. This whole thing keeps happening seamlessly because people just follow the herd; you simply can't open their eyes to what's actually occurring in this "civilized" 21st-century world.

brightwalker32 said:I don't buy for a second that she actually read it. She didn't even know my specific situation or that I was heading straight to her office right now.
She’s just out here defending these "medications" because she's busy pocketing commissions while leading sheep straight into the slaughter with all these useless, neurotoxic pills. Honestly, I hope she needs that money one day for her own medical bills.
At the ER, they did the whole routine—blood pressure, pulse, oxygen levels, a quick neuro check—and then they handed me Torecan, which basically trashed my life.

No blood work? I seriously doubt it. My advice? Find an actual, competent psychiatrist and stop being so bitter about everything. I almost got a diagnosis similar to yours, but it shows. You’re clearly just "resentful" of your own life. Any kind of neurological damage is obvious. Doctors find the real cause behind why you're suffering. And what about the urine culture?

I didn't see any blood or urine in the results.

Here is the point I am trying to make:

This is just one tiny piece of what I call pharmaceutical genocide. Honestly, the pharmacy industry has taken more lives than both World Wars combined. It seems like so many doctors have completely sold their souls for kickbacks and freebies from big pharma products; they couldn't care less whether people suffer side effects or end up dead, as long as the checks clear.

First things first: the FDA needs to pull Torecan off the market immediately!!! Instead of actually coming together to support this idea, you all just turn around and spit on me or call me crazy. Honestly, it’s no wonder we’re seeing these kinds of horrors in the 21st century. If any of those people who think Torecan is "just fine" actually knew the truth about it, they wouldn't touch it even if they were suffering from the worst nausea or dizziness imaginable.

brightwalker32 said:I didn't see any blood or urine tests.

This is exactly what I'm talking about:

What we're seeing here is just a tiny slice of the genocide being carried out by Big Pharma. Honestly, the pharmacy industry has killed more people than both World Wars combined. So many doctors have basically sold their souls for kickbacks and fancy perks from pharmaceutical companies—they don't give a damn whether patients deal with side effects or end up dead, as long as they get paid. N

There is no way they didn't run blood and urine tests. Get a grip, start working on yourself, and stop digging through the internet looking for conspiracy theories. Nobody is making you crazy; you're doing that to yourself.

They didn't perform surgery because we're talking about a neck injury, not some systemic physical disease. Honestly, you're trying to make me look crazy here. When people start pushing those conspiracy theories, just grab some Torecan tablets, take them three times a day, and come back to this thread in two weeks. Luckily enough, I did my own digging online to see what they typically hand out in an ER. If I hadn't, I would've been saved today. Some people label things as "conspiracy theories," but if you ask me, it's just a lack of guts to face reality. Every major news outlet in the world reported last week that Johnson & Johnson has to pay out millions in damages because of their malpractice—so does that mean all those journalists, including our local reporters, are just spreading conspiracies? It's "not happening in America," right? Apparently, every single reporter is out of their minds. Sure, you're totally right. Hahahahaha. You're just terrified of the harsh truth, so you scream "conspiracy theory" to hide. Ahahahhahaha.

brightwalker32 said:They didn't run tests because it was a neck injury, not some systemic disease. No, you're seriously trying to make me look crazy. When people talk about conspiracy theories, they use Torecan plugs three times a day and then pop up here two weeks later. Honestly, thank God I looked up what they give out at the ER online beforehand. I would've been saved today. Some people call it a conspiracy theory, but I call it having zero guts to face reality. Every major news outlet last week reported that Johnson & Johnson has to pay out millions in damages because of their crimes—so I guess all those journalists, including our local reporters, are just spreading conspiracies now? It "never happened in America," right? All the journalists are insane, sure, you're totally right. Hahahahaha. You're just terrified of the brutal truth so you scream "conspiracy theory," ahahahhahaha.

It doesn't matter; whenever you show up to any ER, they draw blood and test urine. No, you're the one trying to make me, and everyone else, look "crazy." Seriously, ask yourself why the neurologist won't run the tests, because a neck injury isn't exactly nothing. The brutal reality is that I refused one specific medication. But I didn't refuse the second one, the alternative, which I end up paying extra for. Which is way better, by the way. And as for the journalists—they just pump nonsense into everyone's heads constantly. They don't have the balls to actually debate real issues. Also, stop "mocking" sick people. And one more thing: how did you even get a neck injury in the first place? Just stop harassing people with your "Torecan" talk. What if they had offered you Reglan or Tramadol instead? Those are a hundred times worse.

My neck injury from years ago is long gone. I actually had to see a neurologist because of the lingering side effects from certain "medications." Look, I’m not trying to mock anyone here, truly. But what those journalists were reporting? That’s the honest truth. And besides, you don't need to get bloodwork done every single time you head to the ER. Every patient's situation is unique.

brightwalker32 said:My neck injury from way back healed up ages ago. I actually ended up seeing a neurologist because of the fallout from certain "medications." Look, I'm not mocking anyone here. But what those reporters were saying? That’s the honest truth. And no, they don't just run blood tests every single time you hit the ER. Every situation is different.

Oh sure, give me a break. They absolutely run tests every single time you show up at the emergency room. You really need to stop listening to journalists, Torecan, and whatever else is out there. Nobody is going to take you seriously if you roll into the hospital complaining about "side effects" from meds. Like, how did you even get that neck injury? A sudden jerk or something? Have you even considered that maybe that neck injury isn't what caused everything else?

Kimberly Ward said:You’re talking nonsense—a technician doesn't just hand out injections. That’s something a nurse or a doctor does. Just read the inserts provided before or after treatment and go find yourself a decent psychiatrist or psychologist, whoever. And honestly, start dealing with the underlying issue first. You can transcribe those lab results if you want, but any damage would be obvious—it shows up right on the EEG.

Look, I hate to say it, but you're talking nonsense now... "medical technician" is basically just a masculine way of saying nurse. The term "medical brother" isn't even an official thing.

And regarding Torecan—side effects and market withdrawals... anyone can have a severe reaction to any medication, even if most of us won't. Does that mean we should pull every single drug off the market?

Furthermore... someone who isn't doing well enough mentally doesn't exactly have the energy to worry about legalities, Googling everything, and all that other stuff. They trust their doctor; they just want the pain to stop. If you don't trust a doctor, then go see a witch doctor or a priest or whatever.

I suspect the person who started this thread is going through some things—and while the timing might align with that injection (not the *injection*, mind you)—it's hard to tell how much is coincidence versus a side effect.
Focus on fixing your quality of life first, and then you can worry about lawsuits. This forum isn't going to help you the way you think it will. Even if everyone here agreed with you, it wouldn't make you feel better, nor would it force Torecan off the market.

Alright, fine, I guess I was wrong about the technician. But how does my nerve damage even line up with an EEG, a psych eval, and an MRI of my brain? According to her, we should just pull all these medications off the market entirely.

Look, I didn't say we should pull every single medication off the market—just Torecan! With Torecan, we aren't talking about some minor side effect; we’re talking about a massive consequence that hit me because my system was already vulnerable, and let's be real, Torecan is neurotoxic. It’s essentially an antipsychotic! Most people would end up exactly where I am if they stayed on it for any extended period. Seriously, ladybug, why don't you prove how much of a "pro" you are with Torecan? Take it three times a day for at least two weeks and then come back here and tell us how you feel. I’m dying to see how you’d react if a doctor walked up to you with a Torecan injection, hahahahahaahaha. But oh, suddenly you're an expert on Torecan now. It's easy to talk tough from behind a screen. Honestly, I’d love to dose you with Torecan just so you’d finally understand what I’m talking about. You are doing real harm by defending Torecan here in the US, and I know for a fact you wouldn't touch it yourself after reading my posts. You have zero empathy for others, and you don't care that the damage Torecan causes could ruin someone else's life. You truly deserve to experience it. And you think it's a coincidence that it’s disappearing from pharmacies in the US while other countries still carry it in this specific form? Nothing "coincided"—Torecan simply damaged my brain. And as if that wasn't enough, now I can barely even use my phone or get online because of the damage I've sustained. I honestly would have been better off visiting a fortune teller or a priest.
I mean, I get that an injection is the "proper" way, but I grew accustomed to this way, and frankly, it sounds better to me.
And to all of you who don't believe me and think you're Torecan experts: you have homework. Go find some Torecan drops and take them three times a day. After two weeks are up, you can get back to commenting on my posts and claiming I'm just making this all up in my head.

Lisa Perez37 said:Look, I'm sorry, but you're talking nonsense now... "medical technician" is just what people call a nurse when they're referring to a guy. There's no official term like "male nurse."

And regarding Torecan, side effects and market withdrawals... anyone can have a serious reaction to any medication that most of us won't ever experience. Does that mean we should pull every single drug off the market?

Plus... someone who isn't feeling well enough to function doesn't have the energy to worry about legalities, Googling everything, and whatever else you want to list. They trust their doctor and just want the pain to stop. If you don't trust your doctor, go see a witch doctor or some local shaman or whatever.

I believe the OP is dealing with some issues, and while it might have lined up with that injection (not an injection, mind you), it’s questionable how much is coincidence versus a side effect.
Better find a way to fix your quality of life first, then worry about lawsuits. This forum isn't going to help you the way you think it will. Even if everyone here agreed with you, it wouldn't make you feel better, nor would it get Torecan pulled from the shelves.

Am I still talking nonsense? We tried to help her, but she keeps pushing back. Like I said, maybe one of us could recommend a decent neurologist, but if she acts like this—of course, hardly anyone is going to take her seriously.

Brandon Newman95, honestly, let's just move on to something else...☕

Look, I’m not taking sides here—I’m neither pro nor con when it comes to Tom Cruise or any other medication, for that matter. But let’s be real for a second: you haven't been dealing with this x times a day; you received exactly one (one!) injection of Tom Cruise, and at the time, you didn't even know what it was. If your doctor had actually given you the name of the drug, would you have known what you were dealing with, or would you have ended up Googling it? And if you were able to Google it, why did you head straight to the ER? Did you skip the local clinic because you don't trust them, or do you happen to have some kind of history there?
Whether we're talking about an immediate reaction or a lingering side effect—well, there are actual medical methods and expert evaluations for determining that. So, please, spare us the drama on Reddit and stop venting at those of us who are just trying to offer constructive advice with a level head. My suggestion? Move past the local clinic and get some proper neurological testing done—but don't walk into the doctor's office claiming you suspect a side effect from Tom Cruise; just list your symptoms and let them do their job. Let us know how the tests turn out. Good luck!

So, I ended up getting this injection that basically ruined my life.
I didn't even need to go on WebMD or anything to figure out how bad this was. Honestly, all I had to do was ask myself if I actually needed an injection for dizziness, and the answer would have been a resounding NO—because I wasn't looking for one, and I certainly didn't want one. But here we are, and things turned out exactly as they did. I guess this was just how it had to end for me. Now, I’m left with this crushing feeling that I don't even deserve anything better. Like I'm just total trash.
