Running out of options and meds to try!!!!!!!

Posted by elainen on September 28, 2004, at 15:05:25

I really feel like I have hit the wall.
I have bp2 and am on
Wellbutrin 75 mg 2 x day and Klonopin .75 mg a day.
This was working well for me, but lately have been having awful ups and downs, with more downs of course. FOrgetting things, word finding difficulty, spelling difficulty, extreme agitation, you know,,,,,so we tried Trileptal...I had a bad reaction to it, we tried it out twice. My throat was getting tight and I got the rash. SO, we stopped it.
I have tried so many other mood stablizers: depakote, olanzapine, risperdone, topomax, and now trileptal. Here is the kicker::they all worked to stop the madness almost right away, but I had horrible side effects or allergic reactions.
And, at a fraction of the normal dose.
Any suggestions on what I can try? My new pdoc is a stick in the mud, won't try anything new.
I need help/advice please. I am so tired of this.
I want to function, and I really want to be able to speak properly and write again.
Yes, I do exercise, at least 3 times a week for an hour. I look after my diet, but must have pringles.

Thanks in advance!
