Dearest Martin,
After reading your threads/posts during the past 3 months, my collegues and i have reached the conclusion that a partial labotomy would most likely be your best chance for a mentally stable existance. Being that Lamotrigine is hepatically metabolized via glucuronidation with subsequent renal excretion of the inactive glucurinide, and the fact that it has a weak inhibitory effect on 5-HT3 receptors, yet is still not capable of eliminating your primary problematic psychiatric symptoms points clearly to the need for immediate partial labotomy which we believe will at a minimum stabilize and decrease your chances of relapse depression.

Regards,

Dr. C.H.Horse :)
