All pyschiatric meds can cause those aweful symptoms you are having. It is basically an anti-dopamine thing. No doubt all 3 meds introduced at the same time would have a profound impact on most people's nervous system, especially since you were in frail condition to begin with. But by far the biggest culprit is seroquel. That is classic antipsychotic stuff you are describing. If it were me I would drop the seroquel and look elsewhere for sleep...lunesta would be a safe start, or possibly remeron. I'm surprised all the meds were started so close to each other. When something goes wrong it's hard to tell which is doing what. Sure sounds like a seroquel thing to me though.
