Ok now THAT is funny. I'll think of you next time my face is bright red. :D

I have read that for mood stabilizing, it works better if taken in the non-er version, just a thought.

It DOES. I didn't even know I was having migraines, by the way. I took my first pill and immediately felt an improvement in this 'sick' feeling I'd had for about a week. For months, I was having cognitive problems, word-finding difficulties, muscle jerks, and attention span and memory problems. The doc thought either it was severe migraines (tho' painless) with a long-lasting aura or hashimoto's encephalopathy. I'm hopin' it's migraine, because the h.e. would require me to take steroids. So far, an improvement. Which is good. Here's hopin' for a full recovery. :Dbookgurl99
