Hi Roslynn.

> I'm sorry you had to go through this. Are you feeling better?

Yes. Thanks.

> but did you have to go to the ER?

Luckily, the reaction was not so severe as to require a trip to the hospital.

> Also, what was your dose of lithium

300mg per day.

> and will you be okay without it?

It is hard to tell. Lithium was helping a little, but not enough to justify its continuation in light of the hyperserotonergic state it produced. I had wanted to continue on lithium for its purported neurotrophic properties.

It's always something.
