That's interesting...I've occasionally noticed the same their/there to/too/two (and sometimes even now/know) spelling problem over the last few months, while on Lamictal 500 mg. I didn't attribute it to the medication though, but it sounds like that's a strong possibility. I just started on Neurontin a week ago--hopefully that won't make things worse!

The problem with the their/there/they're type of error is that spellcheck doesn't catch it!!

I am still taking neurontin and I am getting into the habit of double checking - but choosing the wrong hominym (or whatever they're called) is distressing because it just doesn't catch my eye right away.
