I'm on Lamictal. Since last Wednesday. I'm on 25mg and every other day (my psych. was out of town and he colleague was on call who didn' think muscle pain was a symptom and it says it IS on the pharmacy sheet as did the pahrmacist himself!), and he put me on every other day. I've been waiting about a week for her to return and I hope to hear from her tonight!
She wants to keep me at 25 mg for 6 weeks. Then we move me up to 50mg. It could be MONTHS before I see any results from this med. I am considerng asking for something "potent" to help in the meantime. I just don't think I should have to live this way!
I decided to take meds because of you, BL, Kate...and others here. I decided I deserve to feel OKAY! And natural remedies may be the answer one day...but for now they certainly aren't! I need meds so I can THRIVE and LIVE!!!
I love you so much...thank you for inspiring me! And for loving me...I would surely be in the hospital (or dead--that's honesty!) without all of you by now...
