I have been on Seroquel for about 1 year. I am 6feet tall and 280 lbs. After I eat my glucose reading id abot 150. I do not experince frequent urination, or have the desire to drink liquids often. I have not lost weight, in fact since I have been on Seroquel I have gained. One thing I do expereince, is after lunch I get extremely tired, to the point that I want to go to bed. Please reply
