Hi Barbara,
Sorry it took so long to reply but the forward on your post was to jbecker so I didn't read it until going back to re-read your posts on thryoid. Anyway, I use a 25G 3/5 needle for my B 12. I do have the yellow pee but I don't know if it is because of the boatload of vitamins I am taking or the fact that I don't drink my daily 8 glasses of H2O.
Hope all is well with you and you are continuing to feel good. In the past two weeks, I have cycled up and down twice. Here is the pattern: I feel "normal" for a few days, then progress into a hypomanic state (coupled with high anxiety and insomnia), and then crash into a depression for a few days. I have noticed that the depression is starting to lift today and am hoping the increase in Lamictal will do the trick. I have put two phone calls in to my pdoc in the past two weeks and he has not responded. I decided to take matters into my own hands and up the Lamictal to 225mg. Does everyone have a problem with their pdoc's not returning calls?
Do you know if Lamictal is the med of choice for rapid cycling? Also, I know AD's can cause cycling but I am at such a low dose (50 mg zoloft) so I don't know if this is the culprit or I simply need to keep going with the Lamictal. I have already packed on an additional 10 pds. from the nighttime remeron and am fearful to try another mood stabilizer that will pack on even more.
Again, sorry for the delayed reply.....I would never ignore your posts.
Nicole:))))))
