Add on Med? Shaky + manic...

Posted by Sheilac on June 9, 2016, at 7:19:52

I take 2500mg of Keppra, which I like, but it's not really strong enough. I also take 180-200mg of Geodon, which helps my depression but doesn't really help with mania.

Since I'm at the high end of Keppra, I think I need to add on another anti manic Med. I've tried and failed a lot of them. I see my doc on Monday. I'm thinking of asking her to add back a little lithium to my meds. Lithium caused the least amount of side effects. At the higher dose it gave me thyroid nodules, so I'd have to keep a check on my thyroid function and my Synthroid dose.

Any other suggestions for an add on that would help with mania? I'm feeling so shaky all the time I feel like I'm going to jump out of my skin. I think the Geodon is causing the shakes. I can't take it.
