Side effects from drugs:

- Minor tremor in hands
- Restless Legs
- Sleepiness (passes quickly once taken)
- Weight gain

The side effects were not observed in JH during his time with him other than weight gain

Some of the medications can lead to weight gain. Defendant has put on weight since 2012 Aurora #theatershooting

People gain weight:

-Lack of activity
-Overeating
- Meds effect metabolism

In videos he takes pulse and looks into JH eyes is his pupils are often dilated unusually. Sometimes not.

JH's pupils are often unusually large. Reid still doesn't know why they get so large. #theatershooting

wondered why they were dilated . When noticed, he checked pulse. Eye test - react to light? Smaller when looking close up

Larry Ryckman ‏@larryryckman · 44s45 seconds ago
His pupils did react normally to light and when looking far away and close up. Didn't really relate to his sanity. #theatershooting

#theatershooting

Pupils reacted to light. Not as small as usual and reacted to looking close up “Accommodation reflex"
Pupils/pulse - no relation to his sanity. Nothing wrong with brain

Will C. Holden ‏@will_c_holden · 58s59 seconds ago
Reid says Holmes' pupils strange/often dilated post-#theatershooting. But says that did appear to be significant from psychiatric standpoint

 

[I'mjazzed]

Im hoping we'll be able to see the video more clearly than we have seen other things here.

Jury needs to consider CO health institute is a secure hosp run by state in which facilities more comfy than jail

I don't understand how the doctor can establish JH's state of mind so long after the shooting.

 

[LyndyLoo]

I heard Dr. Reid mention Cogentin..which for myself understand the why's and wherefores... I also heard him mention Risperdal..which explains why he was prescribed that ( Post Nov. 2012) AS Risperdal can cause shaking or stiffness.. but if higher doses of Risperdal could lead to very serious reaction such as "Tardive dyskinesia" which I kind of describe below..
^^^^^^^^^^^
(I could give you stories about acute reactions of withdrawal from some meds that required IM stat injections for severe reactions (TD)..that if left untreated can actually cause dislocation of joints and some appeared totally bent out of any shape any human being can withstand...All because they refuse to take their Cogent med..Yikes!! Just an anecdote for you to understand why it's important to prescribe these meds :facepalm: )

I don't understand how the doctor can establish JH's state of mind so long after the shooting.

I could be wrong...but I think that he watched a lot of video, including with other docs, and read all of their notes and then interviewed them. Before ever talking to JH.
