Hi there, I'm not quite sure what you mean by neurological distress in your UGI and stomach. Was it determined that the vagus nerve (or other branches/filaments) was not functioning or not functioning correctly?
I have never heard of any psych med affecting vagus nerve function but I suppose anything is possible since they do act upon our brain/CNS.
If you are simply referring to organ distress I had a bit of an upset stomach when I first began Lamictal but it worked itself out after about a week or two.
Let me know if I'm on the right track here.
