can a small lithium reduction make you feel worse?

Posted by Roslynn on October 19, 2010, at 11:36:12

Hi everyone,
My doc asked me to reduce my lithium dose from 600mg per day to 300mg because I have a coarse lithium tremor. That was 7 days ago. The tremor has cleared slightly, but I'm feeling more irritable and down than I have in a while. Could that small of a reduction make that much of a difference, or is it "all in my head" as they say?
Will my brain adjust to this new dose?
Thanks for any help!
