I came off Lamictal cold turkey because my pdoc told me to because of a mild case of Stevens Johnsons Syndrome. I would never stop a drug on my own. I know abruptly coming off of anything is leading to greater withdrawal.

She gave me a rx for Tylenol #3 with codeine for the pain. It's been 4 days now and still no let-up in pain. In fact, that's why I'm online at this time, I woke up with the pain. I took the Tylenol about 1/2 hr ago and I'm still waiting for it to kick in. :(

Sorry, if I alarmed any of you. Thanks for the concern you all showed. Much appreciated. :)
