Kati, I'm sorry If I made it sound as though the med protocol was a *nifty little mix*. Nothing about this Monster of an illness is simple. I really do hope for you that it is the right one!
I don't know If mentioned it to you or not but Today, thur the 8th is my last morn. to d/c Lamictal. I am hoping that I did'nt make a mistake by coming off of it (8) weeks because I think I really was getting some good mood lift from it and some motivation - however it was causing pretty bad upper back pain and a worsening of an already existing headache everyday
and some exacerbation of my already bad insomnia-
I see my doc next week and am going to throw out some ideas to him on possibly re-adding FXR to control my anxiety,panic and OCD-then possibly make another run with the Lam.
who knows ? time will tell. 2 yrs plus huh, I am sure you were most likely suffering emmensly for many years before finally being diagnosed and treated effectively,no?- I've been on this *crazy train for 14 yrs)!! Also just curious what would you say your major symptoms are or were that drove you mad and to get treatment!! I know thats a broad based question!
Just a general outline if you don't mind!!
thanks
